Ovum may have been wrong on the IPhone but that doesn't mean that Android tablets would not outsell the IPad by 2015.
Remember, a lot of people back in 2008 were saying that it will take a long time for Android to surpass the IPhone. It took Android only about 2 years to achieve that.

It does have some verifiable truth, but nothing that helps us judge how well Ovum can predict the future. N=1, and we aren't told how many other of Ovum's earlier predictions he checked. So, all we learn from it is that Ovum has not always made perfect predictions.
