Depressing. This stuff makes me want to get a different tablet. The problems is that IMHO no other tablet is currently competitive with the ipad 2 I own. At least I am in the market for a phone, it will properly be a android phone this time...
Not in the vein of the topic but I figured I'd throw in my two cents: I just bought the Asus Eee Pad Transformer and I'm really incredibly happy. I haven't used an iPad extensively but from a basic standpoint of having a useful tablet device I think I made a good decision.
I'd say the only major difference is in app universe but to be honest I think the form factor reduces the need for apps. Just some thoughts.
