Which tablet is better the Kindle or Samsung ?

My family would like to replace our Nook tablets with either a Kindle Fire HDX or a Samsung Galaxy Tab.  I have my own and my 2 kids each have their own.  I like to know which one is better the KIndle or the Samsung?

Well this is an easy one, the Samsung is by far more broader in what you can do and is a favorite among many people for different reasons. The tablet is great is for small business/personal use. I would encourage you to lean more towards it for several reasons.
If I may though, I would wait until the end of the year before I consider a new one as September is generally when Samsung releases new products.

  • Which method is better, the SELECT .. CURSOR(.. , or the Queries in loop

    I have a table t1, this table has 1 to many relation with
    tables t2,t3. t2,t3 do not have any direct relation with eachother.
    I have to read all data in all tables, what do you prefer
    from the following. I am using 10g release 2 but if there
    is some better way in 11g I can go for it also.
    Also generalize this for t2,t3,t4,t5,... etc.
    Method 1.
    FOR i in (SELECT * FROM T1) LOOP
    FOR j in (SELECT * FROM t2 WHERE t2.x=t1.x)LOOP
    ...process data...
    END LOOP
    FOR k in (SELECT * FROM t3 WHERE t3.x=t1.x)LOOP
    ...process data...
    END LOOP
    END LOOP;
    Method 2
    FOR i in
    (SELECT t1.*,
    CURSOR(select * from t2 where t2.x=t1.x),
    CURSOR(select * from t3 where t3.x=t1.x)
    FROM t1) LOOP
    ... process data...
    END LOOP
    Which one will be the faster and why.
    Thanks

    Your question is meaningless.
    Why? Because...
    > There is no way to join all these 3 tables correctly, because joining will
    produce reduandant rows.
    and...
    > its impossible to join all three tables here
    and then you show Method 1 and 2 as options.
    Guess what.
    You have coded a nested loop join in both!
    So just what makes your hack of a join in PL/SQL so much superior than an "impossible" nested loop join in SQL?
    Your problem is not joining.. it is conceptual and design fundamentals. Your approach says that the problem should be approached by discarding the fundamental concept of joining data in a RDBMS.. and thinking of row-by-row slow-by-slow serialised processing.
    Join. Use parallel processing. Either PQ or self-rolled via PL/SQL. There are loads of tools in the Oracle toolbox to address this type of problem.

  • Which macbook and better, the macbook pro or macbook air?

    What is the best macbook ?

    I really like the MacBook Air, but the Pro may be better for your needs. Larger screen size is an option, it has more ports, etc.

  • Which iMac is better, the ME086LL/A or MD093LL/A?

    These models appear to be exactly alike except the newer one (ME086LL/A) has the Intel Iris Pro graphics processor and the the older one (MD093LL/A)  has the NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M graphics processor. Is the Intel Iris better in any respect than the NVIDIA? Thanks.

    NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M uses what is called CUDA. CUDA uses the graphic card to speed up graphics and video rendering... for example... Photoshop, Final Cut Pro X (I think) and 3d software like Blender. This can speed up rendering time by 4 times or more.
    Intel Iris doesn't support CUDA.
    I would go with the NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M card.

  • Which iphone is better the 5s or the 5c

    which iphone would you choose
    the 5s or the 5c

    The differences in specs, price and performance are all on your online Apple Store site. Which model anybody here would choose doesn't matter. Decide what you want and what you can afford.

  • Which one is better, the Zen, the Zune, or the iPod?

    My boyfriend's birthday is Saturday and I was thinking about getting him one of the following. He had an iPod in the past but it broke in his pocket. I was thinking something like a Zen or a Zune but everything I have found on the internet leans towards the iPod. Any suggestions?

    The new touch screen Zune is looking pretty nice!

  • Which is a better performer, the macbook air or the mac mini?

    Which one performs better, the late 2013 macbook air (standard configuration: 4GB RAM, dual core i5 1,3 Ghz CPU) or the mac mini core quad core i7, 4GB RAM with a regular hard disc?

    LowLuster 
    No Air model can be as fast as a Mini with a quad core i7 CPU. Can't happen.
    I didnt solicit your opinion, and it IS a fact, .....skilled users here on this board will and DO TELL other users OFTEN that:
    "outside of processor core use (video/ photo etc.) you will NOT NOTICE ANY DIFFERENCE on X computer vs. slower Y computer"
    I have a 8 month old QUAD core Mac Mini and it is , as I said above "noticeably not ONE BIT" faster than my current 2013 macbook Air with 8gig.
    My quad core came with 4gig of RAM as I recall, I immediately tossed in 16gig.
    Notice the word "noticeably"
    Your subjective hyperbole aside, you are wrong......., those above yourself and myself (point wise,...as Ogel has stated, Clinton has stated, and others) state this fact very often regarding ---"outside of processor core use (video/ photo etc.) you will NOT NOTICE ANY DIFFERENCE on X computer vs. slower Y computer"
    Its not my opinion, its a fact, namely additionally that I stated "noticeably"   - "my quad core mac mini on MOST EVERYTHING (which is most things since 'most things' are NOT photo and video editing) is not "noticeably" ONE BIT faster than my Macbook Air.
    "most things" people do (most people) on their computer does NOT involve photo and video editing (photoshop pro, final cut pro etc etc)
    This is a fact, that AS SUCH most people WILL NOT notice any difference in general computer use between a quad core mac mini (for example) and a entry level macbook Air. (SSD vs. HD speeds aside).       Nobody is going to notice faster youtube, or Word use, or websurfing, Acrobat Pro, Quicktime play, general APPS that havent changed much in 7 years.
    Dont curse on these family boards please, its uncouth.
    Peace

  • "Why can't I install Flash Player on my Tablet?" (Kindle or Samsung Galaxy)

    Your tablet (Kindle or Galaxy) uses the Android Operating System.
    Adobe stopped ALL development of Flash for Android last year. (July 2012) That includes Kindle as well as Samsung Tablets. Additionally, Samsung and Amazon have ended support for Flash in ALL of their newest tablet models.
    The following is from Samsung Support (07/31/2013):
    "Beginning August 15, 2012 we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August 15th, 2012."
    And from Kindle Support (07/31/2013):
    "The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 1st Generation supports some, but not all, versions of Flash. Adobe Flash is pre-installed on a 1st Generation Kindle Fire and is disabled by default.
    If you see a message to install Flash while using your Kindle Fire, this means that the content you're attempting to view uses Flash. If you want to view the content, you'll need to enable Flash through the Silk settings menu.
    If a web page suffers from slow performance due to Flash, or you're unable to view a web page with Flash enabled, we recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a Flash-heavy website to see if that solves your problem:
    Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps library on your Kindle Fire, for availability.
    The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 2nd Generation, Kindle Fire HD 7", and Kindle Fire HD 8.9" doesn't support Flash.
    Some sites use alternative web technologies to Flash in their mobile versions. We recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a website with Flash content to see if that solves your problem:
    Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps or Games library on your Kindle Fire, for availability."
    See: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
    There are older versions of Flash Player (for Android) at that link, but there are no guarantees any of them will work.
    See also: "How do I manually install Flash Player on my Android device?"
    You can find info about "Dolphin" for Android at: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser It seems to be the browser of choice to play Flash content on an Android device.
    Also, check the Android forums to see what their "gurus" recommend.

    Hello,
    Flash Player is not supported on mobile devices, and has never been supported on Windows phone.  I am not aware of alternative option for Windows phone users.

  • Macbook pro retina samsung panel, lg panel, which one is better?

    macbook pro retina samsung panel, lg panel, which one is better?

    grim992 wrote:
    So are the macbook pro retina early 2013 version with LG panel having IR issue?
    Mine hasn't yet but time may tell. At the same time I asked a question on the endless IR thread and never got an answer: to what extent is how the rMBP being used driving image retention?
    I'm sure there are other variables but the one that comes to mind first is how bright is the screen run? I would imagine that a monitor set to full brightness (as one user who complained about IR did) would accelerate any tendency toward IR and the closer to "full-on" it's set, the sooner that would happen. I have mine set to "5" of the available range and for the first week, I ran the Image Retention Test in all its variations repeatedly without a hint of IR. We also don't know whether the LG at full brightness can illuminate an auditorium while the Samsung can only light up a room or vice-versa.
    Other variables could be: is the screen saver used; how long before it kicks in; is the rMBP the only computer so it's used constantly; is it ever powered off or is the monitor just allowed to sleep?
    Based on those thousands of posts, the original LG's appear to be more prone to IR than the Samsung, but there hasn't been the same flood of complaints with the LG SJA2's, at least not yet. At the same time, there hasn't been any attention I could find about contributing factors either.
    And notably,  way back when the Samsung started to be the Holy Grail, I don't remember complaints about color problems; that seems to have cropped up recently.

  • I need opinions. I currently on dilemma on buying iPod Touch 4 or Samsung Galaxy Tab. Comparing these two, which one is better? Why? Tq.

    Well, I want to buy a new gadget for myself. But I currently don't know which one to choose yet. Both iPod Touch 4 and Samsung Galaxy Tab are great inventions! But i can't afford to buy both of them. So i'm asking all of you, any ideas or opinions on these two gadget? Which one is better and why? What do iPod 4 have that Samsung Tab don't have and vice versa. Thank you so much if you replying this.

    I'm having the same issues you are having on my S3.  I was on the phone with tech support (Verizon) last Friday for about an hour.  I had to get a bit nasty with the tech when he attempted to blame Samsung for this (Samsung didn't release that update without Verizon's OK- and have you noticed Verizon has added their logo to the startup now?).
    My data usage has gone up, battery draining much faster (and I have an extended battery!) and I had to re-load some of my widgets on the phone (including the My Verizon widget).  The tech had me start the phone in Safe Mode (holding down the power, volume rocker and Home button at the same time until the Samsung logon screen shows then let go of the power button while continuing to hold the other two buttons until the phone logs on completely).
    Whatever he did remotely seemed to make the phone act better yet he decided I need the update 'reflashed' to the phone.  First he credited my account $30 to take care of any possible data overages.  He then contacted my local Best Buy store to see if they could 'reflash' (upload the update again) the phone. 
    I went to Best Buy and had it done the next day.  I think the phone was better before the 'reflash'!  The tech gave me his personal Verizon cell number so I will be calling him back today.
    An update for the update is coming yet the release date hasn't been confirmed.  The tech said my account will be monitored for any overages in which I will received credits to cover it.
    Good luck, Ginger- and I agree with you: if this doesn't get fixed I will move my business to T-Mobile!

    I have similar problem, my apple tv which has always worked properly with my Samsung tv will no longer play any audio after the latest 5.1 upgrade. Very frustrating as it was working perfectly before. I am starting to not trust apple upgrades until proven for example ios6 on iPhone with that stupid map app instead of google maps.
    I just want to buy and hear my iTunes music and videos on my apple tv, could before cant now. Thank you apple. Time to pack up the apple tv and start torrenting without the ios-bs.
    Disheartened apple fan.

    Welcome to the  discussion forums.
    Try going to synching in the sources menu on your tv and selecting 'change itunes library', when it gives you the passcode check itunes to see if the tv is showing up as a new device, if so try entering the pass code. It may be that your tv is seeing itunes as a different library because of a recent upgrade.

  • Which is better the usual ODBC connection or the OCI to connect to OracleDB

    Just wanted to know which one is better/when should i use OCI over ODBC when connecting to Oracle Database from OBI Administrator.
    Also what are the advantages?
    Thanks

    Always use OCI since it is the native driver of Oracle. Use ODBC when you dont have any other options.
    Thanks,

  • Which is better, The iPhone 4 or iPhone 3GS?

    Hello people. I hope to be getting an iPhone today. I'm just trying to decide which one I will get. The 4 or 3GS? What are your opinions on both models? For some reason, I'd like to get the iPhone 4 because it's the latest model and the 3GS is almost 2 years outdated. So my question for all you Apple fan boys today is which phone is better in your opinion. the iPhone 4 or iPhone 3GS.
    Whatever your opinion is, please explain in depth.
    Thank you everyone for your time and answers!
    Have a great day!

    Its still base on your preference and budget. But iPhone 4 would be a good leap to go.
    iPhone 4 has the basic stuff that you could look for a mobile phone. Regardless of the hefty price tag.
    Try reading out Reviews online about iPhone 4 so you could get more details as well as assurance that the 4th Generation iPhone is better than 3GS.
    PS: Good Luck on Making A Decision. Its though. Really Though.

  • Which is better, the Hip-E, or the Mega PC Series?

    A new computer was released last week that takes aim directly at kids.  It's called the Hip-E, and you can check it out here:  http://www.hip-e.com
    So, the question is, which do you like better the Mega PC or the Hip-E.  (assuming both work perfectly per specificaions)

    The specs for the Hip-E are here:  HIP-E Specifications
    And here is a link for the video card, looks like it's an ATI 9700:  M11 Video Card
    In regards to price, don't forget that Hip-E is shipping with a LCD based monitor, which isn't cheap.  Not that I'm advocating it, personally I don't like the design of the Hip-E.
