Marco Arment, with something I didn’t think about in my earlier posts:
And what about tablets, which should probably be expected to have a useful life closer to a computer’s than a phone’s? The original iPad is nearly two years old, runs iOS 5 well, and will probably get a few more significant OS upgrades. The Galaxy Tab is one year old and it can’t run the latest version of Android.
I kind of just feel had for non-iPad tablet buyers at this point.
