I don't agree with any of the posters that think price has anything to do with this. Its the accessories market that pulls so many consumers to the apple product. How many stereo receivers or shelf systems, alarm clocks, ad infinitum come with android docks built in? Apple is winning the race because they have one and only one device with its one and only port. If Android hardware developers could agree on an interface port that appeared on every device, then the game would be on. If consumers didn't already have the apple connector in their homes on so many devices, would they consider the ipad the default device? Where is Google, Amazon and their hardware bandwagon driving the accessory market for tablets? Apparently they haven't thought of this.

of reading Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle, and wishing I could find an abandoned museum with a freakin' x-ray laser in it.
