In this thread, we see the Xoom guys talking about CPU speed, RAM, 4G, etc., while the Apple guys don't really seem to care. The point is, Apple has simply moved on from that debate. They've left the room. Right or wrong, in their eyes, it's about user experience and not about flashy specs. Up to this point, they've been 100% right.

I can get behind most of that. I agree that the horsepower doesn't matter at all right now.
However, I do think that a lot of the things Honeycomb is doing is way better than what iOS is doing when it comes to the UI. I generally dislike the way iOS is completely locked down and you have to jailbreak it to get it to do something cool, but I understand why they do it. This is why I hope iOS5 is awesome, because if not, I'll be switching.
