Certainly it will be faster than the shitty 1 GHz A4 that is used in the original iPad. It also has FOUR TIMES as much RAM as the iPad 1.
The hardware is not bad. The software is not bad. The reason this failed is because nobody gives a shit about tablets, except for the iPad. And people for people who DO care about tablets, there are better options out there for the same price, and with far more development.
It's not the hardware or software the define Android and iOS. It's their respective app stores, and mass marketing appeal. The TouchPad had good hardware, technically better software, but without the two most important things, it was a total fail.
Microsoft is doing it the right way, trying to sway developers to make software for their platform. In fact, they just started giving out Windows Phones and dev kits to all WebOS developers.
