Poor quality tablets could injure reputation of Android

I have a bad feeling about the proliferation of the good market and evil tablets Android will be the perception of the public to the Android operating system as a whole.

Take a look at the PC Pro review 7 inch front 160 media shelf $if you're short on time with the arrival of Thanksgiving and all, I'll just cut directly to the verdict:

What is the problem with this tablet?, essentially CPU 300 MHz and 128 MB of RAM just shout it's a cell phone with a large screen. It is cheap junk produced with a single goal in mind - suckering people to buy something that resembles vaguely an iPad only built so cheap to be totally unnecessary.

If that were the only cheap and nasty Android Tablet out there, I would be worried.But it is fact pas.En, we are already hips in misery made série.Notre own that Jason Perlow was burnt down by $ 99 Android tablet that he has picked up from Walgreens .and this abomination had a 533 MHz CPU and 256 MB RAM, double that follows the Tablet has and Perlow mark again this device as "a terrible junk piece".

Maylong M -150 $99 Android tablet of Walgreens off the broiler on Vimeo.

 Cheap junk is undesirable.

Really, I détesterais for these tablets to be the first contact that the public has with the Android operating system.Yes, Android has defects (what OS does...) but there are flaws here are not related to the operating system, but the implementation of the operating system.To companies in relying on that there is an abundant supply of suckers out there who will be blinded by the price and be gaps in the device up to their incompetence or incompetence, rather than that of the manufacturer.

Not only is there a risk that the proliferation of cheap tat damage Android, there is a real risk damage market compressed as a whole.Don't believe me?Look at how Windows Vista has been trashed based on issues that were fixed especially at a time where the Service Pack 1 was released.

I'm worried about Android.Je worries me because the "open" nature of the platform (and "open source" is just one facet of this) is currently used and abused by the manufacturers without scrupules.Le name Android is have vandalized by association.

Is there a solution? I know pas.Google could fork Android so chromium and chromium are separate entities, enabling approved separate codebase for those who want to tinker with Google Android (as suggested by Paul Ockenden comments in magazine PC Pro) if nothing else, it would protect the Android trademark.

Thoughts?
