I don't see Android tablets taking off as quickly as Android SmartPhones did. There are more credible competitors on the horizon. Most of the companies that totally missed the boat on competing with the iPhone are in a much better position today. HP/Palm & RIM of course but also Microsoft who I think has an opportunity to make inroads in the tablet-as-productivity-tool market someday. Any of these companies could stand to capitalize on Google's cat-herding problem or Apple's authoritarian pitfalls. Android/iOS will probably still be the big targets but I don't see the others being such distant competitors this time around.
