Judging by the specs, they went for the "more powerful" route rather than the "cheaper" route.

On the technical front, Apple accomplished performance with code elegance as opposed to throwing hardware at the problem, as the Android team often does. This is due to generally better code & more elegant, tightly-tied-to-hardware frameworks. Android will get there, but Honeycomb ain't.
