The Mobile World Congress (MWC) was held in Barcelona last week, and besides the usual fancy phones on display, an abundance of shiny new Android tablets were unveiled at the event as well. And now that the tablet-specific Android 3.0 Honeycomb OS is in the wild, we can finally get excited about these devices.
HTC rolled out a diminutive yet distinctive tablet at MWC, a 7-inch device dubbed the HTC Flyer (above). In a package that's about the same size as Samsung's Galaxy tab, the Taiwan-based manufacturer has packed in a 1.5 GHz processor (single-core), 32 GB of internal storage, and a 1024×600 pixel display.
What sets the Flyer apart from other tablets on the market is that it employs a stylus supported by HTC's Scribe software and pen technology by N-Trig. With Evernote integration, the 3G Flyer looks like a good place to jot down your thoughts. Users can even scribble in the margins of e-books. The Flyer will also feature the ability to record audio notes, plus a video service called HTC Watch and a cloud gaming service via collaboration with the OnLive gaming system.
