How Dual-OS Open Source Tablets Could Slay Apple's iPad

,----[ Quote ]
| If Android has been such a success competing 
| with the iPhone OS on smartphone handsets, why 
| can't it compete with the same OS on tablets? 
| For that matter, why can't it ship on tablets 
| that have more than one free, open source 
| operating system for users to choose from? 
| This proposition gets even more interesting 
| when you throw into the mix the fact that an 
| abundance of applications usually ensures the 
| success of a hardware platform. Could a tablet 
| that, say, runs a version of Ubuntu as well as 
| Android give me a pallette of applications 
| that would make my iPad's applications look 
| puny in comparison? Why not?
