What made me choose the Sony over the Samsung:
IR - AV Use
SD Card Slot
Ergonomics
Screen
Its also one of the most fluid Android tablets I have used.
Android 3.2
I have been using most of the day today and I am really impressed, so is my friend who has been playing about with it most of the day.
At the time of writing this post, I have managed 9h 40m 45s from the battery with 2% remaining. This should improve over time as it was only the tablets first full charge.
It really does feel very natural to be held like a book.
Once the Sony services are online, it till be a good alternative to using iTunes to downloaded movies or Music.
If any one has any requests ill be happy to answer them.

Its any AV equipment.
Also if it doesn't have the item in the menu, it can learn the remote which is impressive.

Even SKY ?

sky uses standard IR codes so there's no reason why not. Virgin might be a different matter though.

That's good to hear. That makes it a mighty consideration for av enthusiasts if a litle overkill. Sony might be on to something there though......a 7" version running on a stripped down build of android. That's a tempting thought.
They do a version with 2 5" screens, its a bit like a Nintendo 3DS
Oh my lord. It's "wkd" is it?
Is the Samsung Tab running 3.2 yet?
Probably not, it would have to get an update for that to happen, and this is Samsung we're talking about

Oh my lord yes it is.
Jesus, this tablet looks nice, not gonna happen for me though, the wife bitched about me spending £89 on the touchpad...
Women just dont get it...
I presume the bit where it says you can even turn off your lights, means you would need to have hideously expensive lights installed?
The TV remote function is certainly worth a bit, those logitech remotes that do the same are damn expensive

It should work, as they are IR based. I'll test it out around a friends house and ill confirm.
They do if you make them. Put your foot down.
Agreed!
Mind you it can cause problems some times.

That's when you hit them, they can't moan at you if they're unconscious.
