Monday 31 January 2011 @ 9:25 am
Porting Android builds that have been extracted from the SDK is nothing new.  But what happens when you export Android 3.0 (intended to be targeted directly at tablets or handsets with extremely high resolutions) from the SDK and port it to Verizon’s HTC DROID Incredible?

Rumored HTC tablet to use Nvidia’s Tegra 2 platform

Monday 20 September 2010 @ 9:32 am

The rumors of an HTC tablet simply won’t die.  DigiTimes is reporting that HTC is now working with Pegatron Technologies to develop and manufacture a tablet device which will compete directly with Apple’s iPad.  We have seen rumors in the past about a Google Chrome powered tablet from HTC, but there appears to be a little confusion around this latest report.  Google Chrome and Android are both mentioned and there are other references to Chrome Apps and the Android Market.   

On the smartphone side, HTC as a very strong relationship with Qualcomm, but the rumored HTC tablet is expected to feature Nvidia’s Tegra 2 platform.  Other spec details include a multi-touch 1280×720 resolution display, 32GB SSD, 2GB RAM, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS.  Price for the HTC tablet should be around NT$25,000 (US$789.75), but could be much lower since HTC typically partners will cellular carriers to subsidize the price of their devices. 

As HTC fans, we love the idea of an HTC tablet.  We’re not sure about you, but we would much rather have an Android powered device than a tablet running Google Chrome.  But we wouldn’t be disappointed if HTC and Google worked together to give us a dual-booting option with the best of both worlds.
