They can improve the software.
Here is the other thing: the software is the only thing that matters. I can forgive an awkwardly placed on/of button, I hit it a couple of times a day. Lost touch events and the like, are an absolute deal breaker. I would never buy a car that regularly ignored throttle input or turns of the steering wheel, why would I buy a touch-interface device that regularly ignores touch events?
Again, more hyperbole. If your car does not respond to inputs, you crash, resulting in property damage, injury, and possibly death. When your tablet does not respond to a tap, you tap it again and it works. At worst, you've suffered some minor frustration.
Never mind that for about a half a day's work you have a handheld computer that 15 years ago was only available to the characters of Star Trek.
