You have quoted me out of context.

I said:

"iPad 1 had a very decent lifespan compared to the tablets released by competing manufacturers shortly afterwards"

And it is completely true. Look at the first Android tablets released after the iPad 1 came out (Motorola Xoom and friends). Did anyone use these for more than a few months?

Yet I know five or six people who still regularly use their iPad 1.

If you had instead placed your "blind trust" in an Android tablet at the time, you would have been treated far worse.
