Base model iPad 3 is $500.  Base model Tab 2 10.1 is $400.  Samsung has 
a technically superior OS.  It has a comparable or superior device with 
that superior OS for $100 less than Apple.  And it's still getting 
clobbered by more than 10:1.

The consumers have spoken: price is not a determining factor.
