Oh,is that why the iPad is such a big failure compared to Android tablets?

- huggyface 14y agoOh,is that why the iPad is such a big failure compared to Android tablets? Will Microsoft achieve success by doing all of the same things as Apple? How has that worked out for them thus far? Will that cargo-cult bring them iPad-like success? Apple is doing a pretty good job of being Apple, and Microsoft has done a really bad job trying to be Apple. Microsoft is bringing all of the same disadvantages, but few of the advantages.
- nextparadigms 14y agoI don't think Android tablets have mostly failed because Android was open. They failed because they arrived too late in the market, Google didn't focus on 3rd party apps from the beginning, and their solution, Honeycomb, arrived a year later, and it sucked as an OS, with bugs, etc. So in effect iPad had about a 2 years head start.
