I do NOT want a damn 7 inch tablet!

I have an iPad and an Android phone (HTC Evo 4G). I like the iPad very much, but I would like an Android tablet even more. The problem? All the folks making Android tablets are making them with 7 inch, 1024x600 screens! The iPad 9.7-inch high-resolution 1024x768 screen is a key piece to the appeal of the iPad, and the solidity as well as the form factor of the iPad is without question the keys to it's success. The fact is, I do NOT want a damn 7 inch tablet! If I am going to replace my iPad with an Android pad, I want the same form factor and the same sense of solidity that I get from the iPad--or I'm not buying it! I know I am a small voice crying out in the wilderness, but all I want is a real replacement for the iPad. Not some flimsy 7" (Dell's is 5"!) tablet.
