Full disclosure: I have an Android smartphone, an Apple iPod Touch, and an iPad2...and I really dislike the way my smartphone handles certain tasks.
That said, I'm pro-tablet in nearly any form. The size of the screen makes for easy websurfing and reading of PDFs, etc. There are plenty of gaming-specific apps for both Androids and Apple devices, but I generally find my Notes app up to the task of handling my campaign notes and character sheets.
But then again, I'm used to doing all that on a 8'x11.5" notepad, too.
While I have much love for the iPad way, I also have much respect for the Samsung tablets, and acknowledge that they can do some things the iPads cannot do.
One thing I did NOT spend money on with my iPad was having built-in wi-fi. I got a hotspot instead. It's faster than most mobile devices' onboard wi-fi, and I can use it to support multiple devices simultaneously...for only little more than a dataplan for a single device. Plus, once 4G becomes obsolete, all I will need to do is replace the hotspot...
Bottom line: find one with as much memory and speed as you can afford and with a display size and resolution you like.
Well, after thinking for five minutes ... I've really nothing to add.
In addition to the above, I have the iPad 3 -- the screen's resolution is extremely nice.
But ... I really think Danny has said it all. Memory, speed ... 10 inch screen! ... all good.
