I find the Pandora to be very ugly... I know it's designed with the gamer in mind (probably ONLY for the gamer) as it has many emulators being worked on, but the layout of it is just plain ugly. Technically, I likey, but that's about it...

Ha.
But no, seriously. What do you mean no native code support?
Android == Linux. Meaning if you want C, you can get C bins onto the phone and run them (not that hard really).
I wouldn't say either "crappy cellular hardware". Both Android and the tablets are ARM, and as far as I understand, Android runs on omap 3 (something which I can't say of the ITs, now).
Though speed is more often than not irrelevant, Android is considerably "faster" (528 vs 400 max). I can't say much about the battery, but I expect Android to be competitive in this corner (I don't want a supercomputer cell phone that only lasts 10 minutes...)
Unless I completely misunderstood what you said. Explain?

There is no native code support. You can run Java applications. That's it.

Besides, what's your point? You can't say anything about any Android hardware, either, since none of it's shipped yet.
