Which tablet would be best for me?

Q. I've been looking at tablets but i cant seem to be able to find the perfect one. I would like one with an SD port, USB port, Flash enabled, multi-touch screen, and able to use the app store, app world, or something with lots of apps NOT ANDROID MARKET. I personally dont like it.
Thanks
If adobe is not using flash, what are they using?

Also what about the blackberry play book?

A. Samsung Galaxy Tab meets every one of your criteria! It has a microSD slot, a USB port (proprietary plug), runs Android 2.2.1 Froyo which supports Flash (for all that's worth) and can use Amazon's Appstore for Android, which is the third largest Appstore after iTunes App Store and Android Market--MUCH bigger than BlackBerry App World-- rather than the Android Market. As a bonus, it can also use Android Market. You don't HAVE to use Android Market.

Android devices can use apps from other sources than the Android Market, though I don't see any reason to exclude it. Amazon has a nice LARGE Appstore for Android devices, and they give a different paid app away for free every day. I use the Android Market, Amazon Appstore for Android, and third party apps on my Android devices. Unlike iPad, Android devices don't need any "jailbreadking" or "rooting" to run apps from anywhere. The package manager (Android is a Linux) recognizes an .apk as an application and can install it. Android is very flexible, and gets even more flexible with root access.

What do you personally not like about the Android Market? Most people are upset with devices that DON'T use the Android Market.

Obviously, the iPad, a nice tablet, don't get me wrong, I have one and the App Store is large, doesn't use Android Market. As far as the BlackBerry Playbook goes, their big selling point is that they DO USE (or will soon) Android Market, because there are no tablet-optimized apps in the BlackBerry World, and without it the Playbook won't have any apps.

iOS depends on specialized apps for Flash sites. YouTube has a specialized site for the YouTube app and Hulu supports their app for Hulu+ on iPad. Flash video sites without support won't work, nor will MS Silverlight sites like Netflix, without that site's specialized apps. Most Flash video sites won't work on tablets anyway, even if the tablet supports Flash. Hulu, for instance, reads the browser and blocks all tablet and handheld browsers, even those which use desktop identifiers like Dolphin. Flash CANNOT be your decider, because MOST Flash isn't supported on any tablets for one reason or another.

Adobe is still pushing Flash, they still make money off of it. Google and many others are pushing standards-compliant HTML5 to enable audio/video in the browser without plugins. This is a good thing. Support HTML5. Unfortunately, Flash is not yet dead. That said, I don't miss it on my iPad, my Galaxy Tab (which supports Flash but most Flash is still blocked from the other end), my Nexus S (which supports Flash but most Flash is still blocked from the other end), or my iPod Touch.

What is the difference between the Netbook 8.4 Lcd Touch Screen and the ipad?
Q. I am trying to figure out what the difference is, so that I can decide which to get.

A. A netbook is a miniaturised laptop that contains many features of a standard laptop computer, though is of a smaller size and weight. They usually run a full-feature operating system, such as Windows 7 or a Linux distro, and behave like a normal computer. They have keyboards and trackpads, and sometimes touch-screens too. They also run quite slower than proper laptops because they have slower processors and less RAM to run with.

The Apple iPad is a tablet computer, that has no actual keyboard, no trackpad, and runs a version of Mac OS that has been optemised for their range of non-computer electronics (iOS for iPod, iPad and iPhone) and cannot run desktop applications; it needs it's own versions. That said, because it has specially built software, even with the same hardware it runs a lot faster than a netbook. The iPad also contains an accelerometer for gaming, plus a vast number of games available.

Hope I've answered your question.

Can I download regular things on a Thrive tablet?
Q. I am getting a Toshiba Thrive Tablet PC (thetoshibatablet.com) and I'm wondering, before I get it, can I download things like GIMP or Adobe Photoshop on it? And if there's anything else I should know about art/photomanipulating programs on the tablet PC?
Are there any more art/photomanipulating apps/programs FOR ANDROID TABLETS that have all the same features?

A. It's not a Tablet PC, nor is it a computer, it's an Android Tablet. It runs on Android.

GIMP runs on Windows, Mac or Linux.
Adopbe Photoshop runs on Windows or Mac.

So the answers is no, you can't get GIMP or Adobe Photoshop on an Android tablet.
