I would like to suggest an Alienware Tablet designed for Gamers.

Must have:
Alien FX lightning
14" LED Display
Nvidia Tegra
32GB+
latest Android + OTA updates from Google

Maybe: Dockingstation with RGB Keyboard and Alien FX Lightning
Or designed as a Notebook/Tablet Hybrid (Tablet = Display, Notebook the Dockingstation with Keyboard)
And please use a small display frame!!!

    Of course the Android Tablet aims at Casual Gaming and reflects the actual Gaming Trend.

    A Tablet is at the moment more a big mobile communication plattform than a good tool for gaming, but it is the future and most studios developing for it.

    I don't think Tablets can be used for Professional Gaming at the moment so there is no need for Windows. But I agree, that for Professional Gaming would be Windows the better choice.

    Nevertheless for Professional or classic Gaming you can buy an Alienware Notebook or Desktop.

    The only negative is that you can not play WOW with them at the toilet ;)

    An interesting idea...
    But most gamers I know of, and I see commenting when one talks about Android on sites and forums, loathe Android as a gaming platform. They want Windows or a more dedicated gaming console like PS Vita and Nintendo 3DS. I think that by offering a tablet with a docking or physical gaming buttons, the trend could change, but I am more positive to an Alienware Windows tablet due to the vast library of games and the native keyboard and game pad support.

    The problem with the only gaming console with Android, the Xperia Play, is that every game has to support the physical buttons. Most games don't because Android phones in general lack buttons, so the real use for the buttons is when one wants to play the Play Station games released on Android by Sony, which are few. As good as every Xperia Play has Emulators and ROMs installed, but that's illegal, so I won't advice one to do so.

    I posted an idea for an Alienware pad with Windows some time ago, if you're interested: http://www.ideastorm.com/idea2ReadIdea?v=1341197151955&Id=087700000008h95AAA
