Why would anyone buy the iphone large 1.3? Or the iphone 1.5?

For a lot of reasons that you probably don't agree with. People have different needs and desires. Crazy thought, I know.

Clearly enough people like the iPad to have propelled Apple to the position of the #1 publicly traded corporation in the world, but whatever...

I'm not sure on what "publicly traded" means, and so I'll blindly tell the world Microsoft still makes more profit than Apple.

Market capitalization: http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=AAPL
Apple broke $500 billion less than a month ago, which is absurdly high and makes it worth almost twice what Microsoft is.

Yeah... it's kinda crazy.

Still, I say people who buy this are fools. They pay more for something that is essentially a piece of DLC for the iPad. Its not new, Not much will have changed. just like the iphone, Nothing much changes but people still blindly buy it and say apple are the best, Oh and the apple Elitism is annoying (When both windows and mac are practically the same but windows has minor benefits in a few areas, Especially gaming.)

Unless, you know, you don't have one yet.

Also, from what I've read, quite a bit has changed internally.

They upped the resolution and upgraded the GPU to go along with that. Plus a new camera.
That's pretty much it.

And upgraded the CPU (they claim 4x the speed). Including that, what you mentioned, and the 4G that is a lot.

It's a luxury good.

Do you consider anyone who buys anything nice to be a fool? Are all BMW and Lexus drivers idiotic? What about people who buy clothes from stores that aren't Walmart? I could go on, but my point should be abundantly clear.

When people have disposable income, they oftentimes choose to spend it on things they like even if it's not the most efficient use of money. Welcome to the world.

Android > iOS
I dont like this strange company called Apple. I prefer Smartphones and Tablets with Android.
But I am not an Applehater. If you want Appleproducts, then buy them and if not, then not. :)

I dont hate android as well. Infact I dont hate any platform but I dont think any tablet (even with ICS) will be able to match the new ipad this year or well into next year.

For me the issue is that iOS is a closed OS. I can do so many things will all the root, custom roms and so on for Android. I dont want to miss that. :)

Yeah, this is the only real difference I can understand, but I don't particularly care about any of that personally. There are iOS apps for pretty much everything I want to do on my phone so as far as I'm concerned Android doesn't really have any advantages.

iOS has far better apps and support than Android, and it's more "polished," but you're obviously restricted and that's a key tradeoff. Both are great in their own ways though.

Ease of use vs. customization.
