I heard something on the Dice Tower recently about this. From what I 
understood in passing, the iOS format works across the board (iPad, iPhone, 
etc) so the programmer only has to write out the game one time and it's 
basically done for iOS. As far as the Android is concerned, not all Droid 
software is compatible on all Droid devices. I don't know if they were 
talking about the forms of the versions of the software or the devices 
themselves. But long story short, it just takes more time and is more 
cumbersome to write a game on the droid format and have it work for all 
droids.
