Gingerbread, Nexus S, and now Honeycomb powered Motorola Tablet prototype. What a day.
Here are some of the quotes from the Live blog, taken from both AllThingsDigital and Engadget.
Walt (Mossberg): “The tablet. What version is that?”
Andy Rubin: “This is Honeycomb. And it’ll be out sometime next year.”
Walt: “Is this a version that happens to work on tablets, or is it for tablets?”
Andy: “It’s a bit of both.”
Andy about the tablet and the new Google Maps that will launch in the next few days for Android only – “So here we have Google Maps. It’s not quite out yet. I have it in SF. I just did a search. I can zoom in. As I zoom in you see I have more detail… taking advantage of 3D processing power. This is a NVIDIA processor, a dual core 3D processor.” He is showing off the 3D tilt view of buildings in Google Maps 5.
There will be video posted later on this evening or tomorrow morning by the D: Dive into Mobile team. I will add to this post at that point.
