The Honeycomb Android 3.0 Operating System

The fine folks at Google have actually created an Android operating system specifically with tablets in mind.  This means that the whole experience of Honeycomb is based on the functionality expected from a tablet.  You’ve got cool stuff like scrollable widgets, tabbed web browsing and tablet optimized email.  There is so much more!  Check out the video:
