When you look at the Apple iPad's sales figures, it's not hard to see why every technology company on the planet is jumping on the tablet bandwagon, a lot of which are Android tablets. Unfortunately though, some of these Android tablets were born way too early (http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2379345,00.asp). They are haunted with a series of problems including flimsy hardware, low-quality resistive touch screens, serious display resolution issues, and old Android versions with limited or non-existent access to apps. Even the Samsung Galaxy Tab came well before its time. Even though it's fast, well-designed, and comes with a decent Android implementation, its functionality is limited to that of an Android smartphone. So here's to hoping that Honeycomb's functionality (http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2379261,00.asp) make up for the lost ground.http://mobile.slashdot.org/story/11/02/07/037259/Android-Tablets-Were-Born-Too-Soon
