Planning to be the kryptonite against the Superman-like iPad.
Apple is laughing all the way to the bank with the iPad, which continues to smash every other tablet on the market.
Android tablets have provided no real competition so far, with even the much-fancied Kindle Fire on the slide after a good start.
