Competition has a hard time meeting Apple's prices

ImageApple iPad's rivals can't hang on pricing.
The alleged iPad killing tablets are coming, but with price tags that aren’t going to even come close to denting Apple’s lead. When Apple CEO Steve Jobs launched the iPad it wasn’t clear how aggressively these newfangled devices were priced. Now we know because Android tablets and other rival tablets can’t hang on pricing.


That is the kind of competition I can respect as opposed to law suits against HTC and others. I still believe that the superior Android system could be slightly more expensive but that is not the case. Prices are about the same. Systems with Windows are the most expensive ones - go figure!
No connection between price and quality in other words. I guess it is the "Lifestyle" that matters.
