Doubt it too. What underwhelms me the most are the apps/general software. I have a Nexus 7 and I don't really know what to do with it anymore. I played around with it a lot, and put some emulators on it, but having to go back to a file browser for reading a book or putting on music is giving me a PC feeling, and I don't really want a tablet to feel like a PC. Furthermore, it's no fun to do web browsing, because the browser has very small touch targets and I have to take a lot of steps accessing my bookmarks I sync via Chrome for Mac. Listening to music is bad. The player software sucks, it lacks any finish and small subtle things I like on the iOS version. And the headphone jack delivers bad sound quality. Apps are generally blown up phone versions. The bigger screen is not really used. I don't like the software buttons, they tempt me to get accidentally touched. I would prefer a physical button. And another mild annoyance is the button to switch it on, which is on the site and I very often touch it when trying to make it louder. Also you always have to touch that small button instead of having a button under the screen to activate the device which is very slow. When you have kids, get them an iPad, especially with the "boring" grid layout of icons, its easier for them to access apps. And they stay in a app, without touching one of the always on software buttons. Maybe my general problem is, I don't want to use Googles ecosystem. I don't think it's very likable. For instance the music app. For Google it's something they put on there, because you need it, but they put no real effort behind it. From Apple I get the impression, people are working on it, who want to achieve a great music listening experience. It's the same with buying content. I don't really feel it at Google. It caters more to the nerd, where is the humanity? This should not prevent you from getting one. But I very much doubt that an Android tablet is as useful for the average user as an iPad and therefore gaining as much market share. Maybe Amazon will find a way to gain marketshare with their ecosystem, but the software appears to suck. And Microsoft, they will struggle first to get decent applications for their tablets, and who will do RT software, when the full desktop version could be right around the corner? The Nexus 7, I handed it over to my wife, she uses it as an e-reader, the screen is great for that. Personally I'm looking forward to a smaller iPad 3 or iPad mini. Maybe a Surface in the near future.
