Another factor may be the variety of the Android tablets. The iPad is an excellent piece of hardware, and iOS is tailored to work on it well (or vice versa). With Android devices, you have high end hardware devices, but you also have the cheap hardware devices - some of which cannot exploit the full capabilities of the operating system. That may set some buyers up for disappointment.
Considering that factor, I'd be interested to see the number of Asus's returned verses the amount of Coby's. (or similar brands...)

On another note, I own a first generation iPad, a Toshiba Thrive and an Acer A100 (Android 3.2). All three are good devices. But even though the iPad is older it is still smoother and I have more apps available. Until I find an Android equivalent to DoodleCast Pro or ScreenChomp (or even ShowMe or EduCreations) I have to stick with the iPad.
