If the tablet is windows based and has USB port CHIRP will work. But seeing it in android format, think that'll be on the back burner for a while. The developers work hard for us free of charge, and we thank them very much. lets not push them.
I would assume am M$ Surface would work. Dell has some windows tablets also, don't see why that would not work as well. But yes I will say, an android version would be awsome.

It's just a matter of the type of radio (driver on cable or on radio)
and the driver used. If it recognizes it as an COM port, it should work.
The software is the tricky part.
