The article compares iPads, which aren’t merely iPhones writ large... with current Android tablets, which are only running Android phone software.
It’s like compating the iPhone to the iPad and wondering why businessmen like to work on the iPad more than the iPhone.
IE: It’s apples to oranges.
When the Android tablet software is released (version 3.0)... then we can see how the iPad compares against another tablet. Until then, though, we’re just comparing tablets versus smart phones.
If you are saying that the current Android tablets are disappointing, I would agree.

Again, I would agree that the current Android tablets are underpowered. Will the next operating system improve the user experience? Probably. And I have no doubt that the computer industry will be looking at the number of sales. Tablets are here to stay. Apple demonstrated that with large sales and high user satisfaction. Now everybody wants to get into this market. That is going to be a good market to watch. There will be lots of players, including RIM.
