A message to anyone still believes the specs have something to do with the success of a tablet, against the iPad:

Only two things matter: The price, and the OS.

No tablet is even coming close to competing the iPad to this day only because of these two things. I'm not sure I actually have to dig into the mass grave of all "iPad killers" to prove my point.

Honeycomb based Android tablets, for the first time, are getting it right on both counts. You may not like Honeycomb and that would be your personal taste, but both feature wise and aesthetics/attractiveness/usability wise, it is looking great in comparison to iOS 4.x.
