The $499.99 (or $599.99 32GB) Sony Tablet S is the more familiar of the pair, though with its folded-book styling, it stands out amongst a sea of tablets that look depressingly similar to Apple’s entry. Like the best of the rest at the moment, the Tablet S runs on NVIDIA's Tegra 2 SoC and so it proves more than adequate at tackling graphics-demanding applications, including HD video and games. The Sony Tablet S is actually an outstanding player of digital media. However, when we it comes to iTunes on Tablet S, we will find it is A BLUE MOON.
