I am liking what im seeing in the video below - Android 3.0 looks very good.




Watching the video i can see Android has been adapted a lot for it to work on a tablet - a lot more promising than Froyo on the Galaxy Tab which just seems too much like a big phone.


Lookin' foward to getting my hands on a Honeycomb Tablet. :D

UPDATE: Motorola Xoom running Honeycomb

EDIT (10/03/11): A Decent video review:

I bought a 13.3 laptop 2 years ago now for £600 and have used it probably a dozen times. I've given it to the girlfriend.

A tablet is defiantly a luxury item and a bit of fun - my uses will be a for the internet and a little media hub. Something i do not need a keyboard for.

Where the tablet differs to the laptop/netbook is that its more fun to use, runs android so i dont need the bloatware like i'd need on a windows device (antivirus, frewall etc), will turn on and off quickly, nowehere near as bulky, should charge of a micro usb adapter (again no bulky charger), long batterylife, more portable etc
 
^^^ i understand what your saying but for me a tablet is a mere luxury and a plaything (i.e. netbook territory). I'm not going to shell out laptop money for one. I'm sure there are people out there that will... I'm just not one of them.

I much prefer the back of the Samsung to the Xoom...FFS why doesn't the Samsung 10.1 have the same camera as the SGS2...1080P LOVELYNESS. Lack of HDMI and MicroUSB is very disappointing too.

Here's a decent video review of the XOOM:


EDIT - I noticed in another video that the XOOM supports HDMI Mirroring @ 1080p. Excellent
