I'm guessing my five year old niece, who enjoys playing games on the iPad, won't be purchasing this tablet to drop her own game on the Android market. Or, the grandmothers who own iPads - I don't think they've been clamoring to develop some bomb ass apps, if only they didn't have to learn that pesky Obj C.
Not saying that all grandmothers or five year olds can't code - just that Apple is selling an experience, one that many people enjoy. Give a person an iPad and this, and see which one they enjoy using more. Resistive screens? A huge impact on experience...
