Combine that with the next version of Android and you are looking at the first generation of tablets that are more than just toys.

Everyone said that exact same thing before Honeycomb and the Xoom cam out.
I don't think the two are comparable, honestly. iPad murders the Android as a multimedia device. How can Google still not have a single market access to buy video and songs? Obviously, the app disparity has been talked about a lot, and remains true.
Apple has never cared much about specs. They deliver polished products on a predictable, incremental timeline. You can buy one on March 11th, plug it into your computer, and be ready to go. You know exactly what you are getting.
Compare that to Google, who always seems half-assed. How many times have I heard someone say "wait for the next version, that'll be more polished." As a consumer, do you want a tablet with higher specs but an early adopter experience, or do you want the established, leading platform that offers a reliable and predictable experience?
