But let's forget Dvorak's credentials... how about you stick to what he SAID... Do you NOT think a $150 tablet will be available in the next few years.. one that is on par with the iPad 5 or whatever is out at the time?
If you don't, then you are ignoring the MASSIVE body of evidence pointing to the contrary.

Racing to the bottom is not a winning game you know.
Sure, there will be cheaper tablets out there, but Apple is going to dominate this part of the market. They're ahead of everyone by a LONG, LONG ways. By the time these $150 tablets are out people will have already bought 2, 3, 4 iPads and Apple will laugh all the way to the bank.
I'm sure a lot of people wish that there was a car maker out there that could match Mercedes or BMW for the price of sub KIA. There was probably a day when people would be out claiming some new car maker was going to kill these guys and beat them in every imaginable way. Except they never did. People are still willing to pay more for those cars, no matter what anyone else makes.
Sweating over tablets is a dumb game. Apple already won this game. If Android wants to do something amazing, figure out what's next, and beat Apple to that one....
(disclaimer: the only Apple product I own is an iPod touch, although I do plan to buy an iPad, and a kindle, and probably a Nook Color as well.)
