When you do a demonstration as a conference and decide to use a rival device to show off how good your own device is, you can expect some embarrassment if that rival device actually beats the hell out of your device in the process.
Well according to an article over on i4u by Robert Evans, this is what happened at Google I/O conference 2010. Apparently the demonstration team demonstrating modern tech presentation memory set up side by side an Android phone and the Apple iPad to display the loading of a new app.
Imagine the red faced embarrassment of the Google guys when not only did the Apple iPad populate and load quickly but the Android phone took ages to load the app, long pause of silence ensuing as faces turn red no doubt.
Foe several agonising seconds the camera zoomed in fully on the successful Apple iPad showing it next to a stalled Android flagship handset, and apparently the reason the Android phone took such a long time to load was due to clogged WiFi…mhmm, I can envisage Apple working on a suitable TV commercial right now.
