Asus has a similar model and I'm very intrigued by this that could possibly run Android 3.0

Not necessarily - blogs have been at it (min hardware requirement) for over 1/2 year about what is being needed from a mobile device (aka cell phone, pushing a bit toward tablet) in order for it to be able to run Android 3.0

Now we see 10" screen devices clamoring Android 3.0, where I don't see anything showing (for me anyway) that would make it to be mature enough to take advantage of the more than min hardware requirement that people speak about the past many months.

cheers ...

So it seems that Google is narrowing down to 3 manufacturers in partnership of making Android 3.0 mature in the tablet arena ...


"Google has apparently given priority to Motorola, Samsung Electronics and HTC for cooperation to develop tablet PCs that will run on Android 3.0 Honeycomb, according to industry sources.

Motorola has unveiled its Xoom tablet PC running on Android 3.0 at CES 2011, while Samsung is able to manufacture a number of key components for tablet PCs, the sources noted.

On the other hand, Taiwan-based ODM notebook makers are not strong in software development and also cannot control the supply of some key components for tablet PCs, making them unable to compete with handset makers to win support from Google, the source pointed out.

Compal Electronics reportedly tried in vain to cooperate with Google to develop tablet PCs in 2010 as Google has given priority to handset vendors, the sources added."

Left to see how current non-partnering Android Tablets fare in the near future.

cheers ...
