The only real selling point with iPad over and android is I already have an iPhone so, that's a plus. However, I am not one of the Apple people.
I have an iPhone because it is one operating system across its entire platform. Not one operating system with 17 different updates floating around that have all been tweaked by each of the individual phone producers. I had an HTC that got a little out of date and it sucked. Apps wouldn't work because they were designed for new updates that were not released for my phone.
