If by developer base you mean market share, Android tablets are selling more than iOS nowadays. Apple is 43.6%, Android over 50%. Nowhere near the huge lead Android has in smartphone market share, but still enough that people going for the biggest market should chose Android:

Not really surprising considering competitors like amazon aren't even trying to make a profit on the hardware cost and are selling the things at rock bottom prices. Most business solutions I saw at CES were using Android tablet bases as well now. I guess due to the low price and because you can customize the entire software stack for health care providers or whatever you are targeting.
What? Developer base mean developers, not users. Developers are more with iOS (better dev tools, better monetization, less tech problems, etc) Is well understood. The most quality apps are in iOS. That is a fact. The most qualified devs are in iOS, that is another.
Android have the market share, but the quality is not there yet (as compared with iOS)
