There is a whole bunch of Android-based tablets coming out (or are out now) that are substandard (nothing against Android, just those who are rushing cr@p to the market). Case in point: The Augen 7" tablet, available at KMarts in this country for around $120. It bills itself as an ebook reader, movie viewer, all the usual suspects. It is however cheaply made, low battery life (still using LCD) and slow...

I can see folks buying these things and coming to the conclusion that Android is dodgy since most of the cheaply-made products will do will to distinguish their appearance and so the good ones will look like Android and so will the bad ones...
