Millions poised to welcome the post Apple iPad 2 tablet experience

it's coming Steve what are you doing about it?

Lately Apple centrics from top to bottom feeder, like to hum  about the "post PC experience" but consider :


There is no post PC experience , without stock of Apple products to enable people to get experienced ... And with the continuing "stock shortages" of Apple's most potent proponent of the evangelical post PC experience (iTune in App up and drop out) , I speak of none other than that Scarlet Pimpernel of tablets the  iPad 2  , the competition is poised to gobble up Steve's  Apple Pie.

Woe is Cupertino , they would like to sell you their shiny Apple iPad 2 , the only place you can get one by tomorrow is on eBay . Viva Capitalism!  

Now if I wasn't too in love with the idea of locking up funds for 5 to 6 weeks whilst Apple manufactured me a fresh iPad 2 , I am certainly not going to be paying £1200 for a £659 machine on eBay . 

But wait what's this ? tomorrow I get my Acer Iconia dual screen tablet, my second dual screen tablet folly in as many years. What I would like is a dual screen Mac  Air Touch .... but they tell me I am one in a billion at my local Apple Temple , they are almost right I am about 1  in 1.3 billion....

Hmmmh  why are millions about to have a post Apple tablet experience ? Well neither they nor I   have to demean ourselves before Apple sales staff online or in the store  . And I can make more videos of tablets that let you do stuff , that's like really really cool ,  to better aid the blue shirts  in their attempts to  humiliate me the next time I am in an Apple store....

Arrogance is almost cool when you are the only kid on the block ,  your's is the only game, but seriously the onslaught of tablets , Windows 7 , Android Honeycomb , with variants and exotics like the dual screen iconia , or the Asus slider , Acer Tab , should have caused enough worry to Apple to ramp  up manufacturing at a local level . They did not  or if they did there is some serious hoarding going on.

Now in 2011 ,the year of the iPad 2 non launch , it is not  the competition that will defeat Apple it will be Apple that defeats Apple , their cries of supply /demand problems are now  a month old almost , it was crucial that Apple get as many iPad 2 units into the hands of tablet hungry sheep before they started grazing on pastures new ( Android , Windows , and whatever Blackberry and HP are now calling their OS) .

We are days from the UK launch of the iPad 2's competition ,  the acquisition of which costs significantly less in humiliation terms than the iPad 2 . 

let me demonstrate :

You want an Asus Eee Slate Ep121 here you go 

   

You want a Motorola Xoom  here you go 

You want a dual core tablet that also has a keyboard dock go for the  Acer Iconia W500 tablet it even comes with AMD Radeon HD6250 Graphics ! and Windows 7 Bluetooth 3 etc etc for £449!

( throw in some extra and go for the keyboard dock option!) or the Asus EeePad Transformer for £429! which is currently the top of the Amazon UK tablet best sellers

   

You want a totally rare dual screen tablet that runs Windows 7 ? here you go 

 

and so on and so on .


oh fyi Amazon do not block your money or take your money for stock they do not have . 

Now if you want an iPad 2 get to the Apple Store online ,complete your order  and wait 2 to 6 weeks , yes it says 2 to 3 weeks on the initial page , but when it completes that number jumps from 2 to 3 to 4 to 6 . It should read 24 hours.

And the total smash in the groin ? Apple get to block your funds whilst you wait ..... money you could have spent on any of the competition or for like you know living?

Or you could go down your local Apple store , you have to travel there because you cannot check stock any other way , or reserve it .  When you get there , you are going to have a hard time believing their stock quotes anyway .... and they will be ever so helpful in telling you when the iPad 2 was in stock , or that you just missed it , but not able to divulge when they will be in stock . 

All this is designed to create desire , in something that in 1 months time will be sold from Tesco , but as I stated before  I get the feeling Apple is terrified of what increasing competition is going to do  , nobody knows you see . One of those 100s of tablets is going to click with customers and dent Apples  solid Aluminum  ( Aluminium ) shares...


Where is my Mac Air tablet , where is my Macbook pro tablet ?


Apple could have produced something evolutionary in the iPad 2 , or the Air or Macbooks , but it did not , any of the tablets listed above either does more than the iPad 2 ,fulfils the wishes for full OS slates from a growing crowd (see picture above) or does less but cost and ease of getting hold of one without say having £1388 of your funds blocked by a polite but misleading +/- mistaken phone salesman  really does make the case for millions of people this year experiencing the Post Apple/iPad  Tablet experience rather than the "post PC " experience Apple has been hyping , no did I really use that word ? What I meant was selling .....actually not selling , because several weeks into the iPad 2 launch , which now overlaps the competitions launch , there are still "supply and demand problems" !!!!!!!!!!.....


Really the only thing missing from the iPad 2 launch fiasco is Southpark doing a Cartman trying to get an iPad 2 show....


hmmmh...  stroke white cat ... reset monocle ... raise little finger to mouth...eat cheesy poofs
