I agree that a tablet's software library is a key factor in a tablet's success, but I lump it in with operating system choice: iOS = App Store, Android = Market, Windows Phone = Marketplace, WebOS = well....

As for the foil, there are other (more repair-friendly) ways to shield components. For example, check the following cracking open galleries of tablets without massive amounts of foil shielding:
