I think if an android tablet included a stylus it could outshine the iPad. Android would need to be able to have specific functionality associated with the pointing device. For example if using a stylus the default function would be for it to work like a pen. You could take notes, circle items, make drawings, etc. Then point to something with your finger to select, scroll, etc. basically all the current default functionality of using your finger in android. If you had multi-touch then all the multi touch functionality. It would also have to be able to ignore something larger than a finger, ie. the base of your hand resting on the screen while using the stylus.
If this functionality was there then it could redefine note taking for students, medical professional, lawyers etc. Throw in a high quality camera that could take picture of a document, save it as a PDF, immediately start taking notes. Would allow for you to have forms/or documents that people can sign, etc. Virtually removing paper from offices.
