Considering that factor, I'd be interested to see the number of Asus's returned verses the amount of Coby's. (or similar brands...)
That was my first guess too. But looking at the Saturn Markt site, they only sell three Android tablets and all of them are brand names. So thats not it. Plus, the Apple 2 is about the same price as the lowest Android tabs. So impulse buy is not the solution either. My guess is that most people realized they don't really need one. Cool, but not that practical yet.
