Notion Ink Adam ready for Pre-Order

Well the time is finally right and I have a feeling that Notion Ink's Adam will be the first Android Tablet that will rival Apple's iPad.

Take a look a the picture gallery below from Notion Ink's Blog. There is also mention of the Notion Ink Eve which will have NFC (Near Field Communication) component.

My Consumer Status with Apple Over the Years

I thought I would take a minute to explain how my view on Apple has changed over the years:

  • Prior to college I had no experience with Apple and do to my immaturity I thought they sucked.
  • In college I started working for an eLearning company and was introducted to my first Mac and Final Cut Pro. I found it fabulous... no blue screen of death and it just worked. A start to a beautiful relationship... I'm completely sold that everyone should have a Mac over Windows.
  • Got my first iPhone right before the iPhone 3GS came out. Feel in love all over again.
  • Started developing iPhone apps using Flash CS5 Packager for iPhone, get one, TheProducer (Lite Edition) approved and in the iTunes App Store.
  • I developed a full version of TheProducer and submit it to the iTunes App Store.
  • Apple then announces the iPad. I pre-order an iPad. Meanwhile, I'm starting to build an iPad version of TheProducer using Flash CS5.
  • I get my iPad and even get TheProducer working on it and within days Apple block Flash (and AIR apps) on the iPhone and iPad.
  • 6 email inquiries later, the full version of TheProducer is still "In Review" at Apple and has been since March 15, 2010.
  • I lost my temper with Apple: 
  • I swap to the Google Nexus One and Android 2.2. If I may add, runs Flash and AIR apps really nicely!
  • Future outlook... I still think Windows is an inferior product in comparison to Mac OS X, but I don't think I'll be buying an iPhone 4 anytime soon.

BTW... I'm selling my iPad! Can't wait to get my hands on Notion Ink's ADAM!!!
