Looking for a tablet to take on my deployment

I've had more tablets and phones than I can count, including two Ipad 2's. I thought they were all good and the Apples were buttery smooth, but my latest, Google Nexus 10, is every bit as nice as the Apple offerings. The 2560 x 1600 screen is brilliant and razor sharp. I like that Google updates their own android products first and on a regular basis, so I have the the latest Jelly Bean 4.3. It is very smooth also and this tablet has lots of horsepower under the hood. Android gets better all the time. I find it very intuitive just as I did with the Ipad, but they're different. Not in a bad way though.

To each his own, but just curious, why not an ipad "out of principle"? I can definitely understand if there is a personal reason like Apple screwed you over once, but if not, just curious. I say run what you want, no harm no foul.....personally for me, thats an iPad Mini.....

I choose iPad because for that last 4-5 years I have supported smart phones and tablets at work and Android's give us the most problems....

I think if I were going Android, I'd look at the Nexus products from LG/Google. I carried a Nexus 4 for a few months while testing it out and it was the best android device I had used (still went back to my iPhone). the 7" I've never gotten to play with but I've heard good things
