3.0 Honeycomb, the tablet version, I've never seen a number that was anything but tiny .

App downloads. Research firm ABI says that in the second quarter, Android overtook iOS in mobile app downloads and now has 44 percent share worldwide vs. 31 percent for iOS. On the other hand, it says that iOS beats Android in terms of downloads per user by 2-to-1. And it states that Android's installed base beats iOS's by 2.4-to-1.

Maybe ABI isn't counting iPads and/or iPod Touches.)
