Google adapts its operating system for tablets

A few weeks ago came the mobile version 2.3. The tablets have earned their own version of the Google operating system. Android 3.0 is called Honeycomb, honeycomb in Spanish. The first demonstrations reveal a fluid operating system, which uses the screen and designed for entertainment and work equally.

The big news is in the digital library management, much like the Apple book store or Amazon, and a mail version of Gmail for these devices. It also highlights the integration, especially when the device is used in horizontal, keyboard and viewing YouTube content. Anything you have not noticed an iPad user.

Where I do differ is in the integration of Gtalk, with the inclusion of video calls. It becomes, therefore, including standard front camera. In the few comments provided by Google has made it clear that this is a development on the mobile version, if not something designed for tablets. The intent of this statement is to emphasize that there is little point attempting to install on a phone.

Although Motorola, with its model Xoom is the first manufacturer who will market the fight seems to be open. LG has created a modified tablet marketed in the United States through an operator T-Mobile. Includes changes, as does your HTC HTC Sense, with some proprietary applications. The innovative design seen so far is the Asus.

Creates a new range within the tablets out fine with the limited acceptance tactile keyboards. The so-called "slider" is not just a tablet with a retractable keyboard is hidden under the screen hinge which allows the deployment, making stand allows you to type like a netbook. It looks like a hybrid between touch tablet netbook but taking the weight.

The Asus slider pad is 10 inches and has a processor, Nvidia, has front and rear camera and is expected to hit the market in May for a price between 380 and 600 euros.
