Sony has unveiled two Android 3.0 Honeycomb based tablets named S1 and S2 (dual screen). Both tablets are PlayStation certified , we can play PlayStation titles meant for Android platform. Users will be able to stream music and videos through Sony's Qriocity multimedia content streaming service. Both Tablets are powered by dual-core Nvidia Tegra 2 SoC processor, these new tablets would be available later this year in Fall (late September). At this moment, both tablets don't bear any brand name and Sony's referring to them as - Sony tablet to extend its VAIO products family.
The Sony tablet codenamed S1 has 9.4-inch touchscreen display is big enough to enjoy web browsing and multimedia content.
The S1 has a unique 'wrap design' that looks as if a magazine has been folded and the press images clearly show it. In a way, that wrap will proved a bit of an elevation to keep the top part higher for ease of typing over the onscreen keyboard. Under the hood, S1 houses a dual-core Nvidia Tegra 2 System on Chip processor which will power the Google Android 3.0 Honeycomb operating system. Sony has customized the touch panel UI to be "quick and smooth" and the web browsing will be powered with "swift" web browser. S1 tablet has two cameras for video chat as well as imaging - front facing and back panel.
Users will be able to browse, download and read eBooks from the Reader Store eBook store of Sony. The S1 tablet also has an Infrared Port (yeah!) to make it act like a universal remote for broader range of DLNA certified electronics.
