The cool thing about Android for me is that they knew they had to do tablets, but they also knew that the amount of work to get a code base that supported both small and large form factors was going to stretch out quite a ways. So rather than delay releases for over a year or alternately put out a half solution, they decided to deliberately fork the OS for a brief time. The 3.x releases were geared entirely toward the tablet market to allow the tablet folks to weigh in with their concerns and ideas, and then they took the 2.x and 3.x lines and merged them back together for 4.0.

The folks running Android are make more good decisions than bad ones as far as I can see.
