A couple easy points:

They claim it can't be beat on price, but, due to the varying size and features of other tablets, that's simply not true (see Asus' MeMo 370T http://news.cnet.com/8301-13924_3-57393947-64/google-asus-to...).

They claim it can't be beat on battery life, but reviews have shown that the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Transformer Prime both come within a few percentage points of usable time. Certainly close enough for practical use.

Agree. A quick search on Best Buy's site shows only 7 out of 47 android tablets are 499 or above. Granted, the Ipad2 just dropped to 399, but up until a week ago most of the android tablets were cheaper than the ipad.

Since when did "come within a few percentage points of it" and "beating it" become the same thing?

If the other tablets want to win, they have to be better. Either cheaper or more functional or more novel or better styled.

You're right, I stated the claim wrong. The correct claim is "None of Apple’s rivals has managed to even match the iPad’s battery life." On that count, they are, for practical purposes, incorrect. Additionally, Engadget's test have shown The Galaxy Tab 7.7 significantly besting the iPad 2 in battery life (http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/07/samsung-galaxy-tab-7-7-re...).
