Google's Andy Rubin gives snapshot of tablet future

At the D: Dive into Mobile conference in San Francisco yesterday, Andy Rubin, Google’s VP of Mobile Platforms delivered a keynote - addressing mobile phone technology as well as what the future of tablets might look like. He dove into Android — explaining the past (Android started as an eight-person start-up), present, and possible future.

Here’s our favorite quote:

Question: Is Android too clunky? Will we see a sea change where Android really gets more user friendly?

Rubin: I would probably characterize Android today as an enthusiast product for early adopters — or wives of tech enthusiasts.
