Jason Snell, in his review of the HP TouchPad:

Sometimes I think one of the most important achievements of Apple’s iOS development team is completely overlooked by most reviewers: the fact that on iOS devices, when you move your finger, the on-screen objects under your finger move along with it. No lag, no judder of dropped frames, just a pure illusion that you’re physically manipulating an object. Almost every time I have tried a new Android phone or tablet—and when I tried the TouchPad—I am surprised to find that the interface just isn’t as responsive as Apple’s.

It’s crazy that four years after the iPhone was released, competing devices still can’t do something so basic. This is they key element to what makes the iPhone great—that things respond to the user’s touch like they’re real objects—but others haven’t really been able to duplicate it yet.
