I read comics using Manga Rock Unity (with over 7000 manga titles, some with 400+ chapters) for a 4 hour car ride and it didn't even use up 20% of the battery on the way down. The thing is really amazing.
I'm pissed off that the built in gallery can't be sorted at all, you're stuck using the "date taken" metadata but that's honestly my only gripe with the thing. Now if someone would only come up with a decent gallery replacement app and a dual thumbstick + buttons accessory you could snap the thing in to, it'd be the perfect little toy, cause tilting your viewing area around to control something is the worst control scheme since the original power glove. I haven't tried the games with the virtual thumbsticks but I'm not sold on the idea of taking up screen real estate with the controller. I guess on the iPad's screen it wouldn't be so bad but I'd still like something physical to interact with.

Motorola especially, but HTC and LG as well, keep saying all this crazy techno-crazy stuff to people who don't give a shit. "New HTC LOLAWESOME on Verizon LTE with Dual-Core Tegra2 and 1 gig of RAM that is incredibly customizable when rooted and running stock Android!" Minus the rooting thing, commercials say things like this, and people that are not very tech savvy are like WTF does that even mean? Then, they see an iPhone commercial and it shows the phone actually being used for practical purposes. "With the iPhone 4, you have a battery that lets you play longer, write longer, read longer, and FaceTime longer, all on a dependable carrier and 300,000 app selection and growing." Potential customers are like "Oh, so it has a long battery, a great screen, tons of app selections, and can video call. That's pretty neat!"
Apple advertises features, other manufacturers advertise specs, which really polarizes who gets interested in their products. I agree, Apple does not have the "Fastest processor in a smartphone, ever" like some other, but if you put them side by side, a typical consumer would never know, and that is why the iPhone sells like it's fucking free and gives blowjobs.
