I haven't seen anyone who owns an Android tablet. And I know 40-50 people with iPads. I don't know about it, but Android 4.1 might be very good on tablets and Nexus 7 might (hopefully) sell millions, and I'm happy about it because it makes Apple try harder on iPad, but "Android owns the tablet market" is far from the reality I'm living in.
I agree with the rest of your comment. I wanted to upvote it, but my mouse slipped (I'm used to trackpads) and accidentally downvoted you. sorry about that.

There is an iPad market, which is huge and where US$499 is a reasonable price, and then there is a tablet market, where you'll find the Nexus 7, Kindle Fire, Nooks and others fight each other (but not the iPad) for a lower price point. In this second market, an entrant above the US$ 300 range is doomed to fail because it won't compete with the iPad. Microsoft has some great people working for them, but they have no product that can compete with the iPad.
