Honeycomb and ICS are nice but there's a serious lack of Android apps designed for bigger screens.
There are much more reasons than sd cards and openness. There is a better selection of hardware, such as the transformer, the tab, KFire, etc. It's just not a one size fits all in one the android world. I can see folks picking an iPad3 over an Android tablet but an iPad2 I don't think so.

I think your last statement is more perception than fact. There are plenty of tablet optimized apps, though I do agree the more the better. Most of the apps I use daily are tablet optimized, What kind of app are you looking for?

My opinion is that the limitation is more that tablets are not optimized for human interaction. The result is it a difficult to be productive on any tablet.

Some gesture sensors and predictive keyboards closings the gap but they are still far behind the computer.
