I would think an Android skin would still be preferable. Much bigger ecosystem of touch optimized apps.

What?? Hell NO!

Most Android "tablet" apps are upscaled phone apps, if even that. The last time I checked, apps specifically developed for Android tablets were far fewer (and worse) than apps specifically made for iPads.

The parent comment was comparing Android with JingOS, not iOS.

My bad then, I read it as wanting to Android apps instead of iOS apps on a tablet.
