    Default Android OS -what's the benefit?

    i noticed a ton of new tablets running the android OS and was wondering what's the benefit? i'm not real familiar w/ the OS. i don't see it as a competitor to windows or apple - am i wrong? it seems it's more of an OS for MIDs or PMP. what's the appeal?

    thoughts?

    The appeal is in the things that you mentioned. That it is a better fit, given the performance limitations, for Tablets/Mids/PMPs. This is just my opinion, but the term "Tablet" is being applied to TabletPCs, and the two are not the same. Android is a potentially good fit for Tablets, but the TabletPC spec is based around Windows OS'.
