From my perspective:
Win8 - I really like the idea of having a tablet that can be converted to a full netbook by using a docking keyboard. With full Win8 (i.e. not RT) this means you have not only a great tablet, but also a pretty useful PC where you can run all the legacy apps. Still not many real Win8 apps, but MM8 is there...
Android - I have the Asus Transformer, the idea is great, but in the Android variant it doesn't make as much sense as in Win8 case, since Android apps usually aren't too well optimized for tablets and even less for keyboard. And no legacy Win apps...
iPad - Definitely great for a content consumption, but I don't like the way it's locked to Apple. Not that Win8 isn't MS cloud oriented, but in many aspects significantly less strict. Also there isn't MM for iPad...
