That's a very good point. I'm almost convinced that the 3.1 on Google's dashboard is literally the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 devices that Google gave away at IO a couple of years ago that were pretty much orphaned by Samsung because they had a broken build. By far, Honeycomb was probably the worst version of Android ever, and I've been using it since 1.0 and remember how bad 2.0 was when it first came out on the Droid/Milestone. We can't even deprecate it cleanly.
