Could you really name a touch enabled Tablet to me without searching?

I don't know the name of it, but I know that everyone at my doctor's office has one.

is also that nifty little stat about Apple being the worlds largest Tablet seller after their first day, so when it really comes down to it, they are the first.

Huh? Being bigger than those preceding you makes you the first? What?

Apple when someone tells them "well Google has been working on this for 2 years!" and simply remember that Apple did it first...

I guess you're really a fanboy and believe this. But for those of us who have been watching the computer industry, tablets have been around for quite some time. Microsoft had a version of XP -- a now-discontinued OS -- for them. If you Google for "tablet pc windows xp", the first link you come to -- at Microsoft -- is a page that says it's been retired. Apple has missed at least one whole product cycle already.
