Because of that, many Flyer users who intend to return to Gingerbread. For users who are already quite an expert, of course it is not difficult, simply by downloading the firmware & flash congenital (Bill), then the HTC Flyer will return to Gingerbread.

For the novice user, the affairs of flashing felt quite daunting, especially there is a possibility that such devices (Flyer) will be bricked (not used at all). Therefore, the HTC-Hub.com (one blog about HTC) took the initiative to ask how to downgrade the Flyer to Gingerbread to the HTC, and get an answer that is quite surprising.

HTC Party stated that the Flyer users can bring their tablets to Customer Service to downgraded to Gingerbread. Then, the HTC gives another answer, that advise users to wait for the Ice Cream Sandwich updates on their Flyer tablets. It could be good news for the HTC Flyer users, given previous HTC parties through their Facebook accounts to tell the list of devices that will be gets the Ice Cream Sandwich update, but without the name HTC Flyer in the list.

There has been no official confirmation of the HTC does indeed the Ice Cream Sandwich update will be available for the Flyer, but at least their side (through customer service) to answer the 'hidden' about the Ice Cream Sandwich update.

- Software customizations are helpful
- USB host port and microSD card slot

Cons
Fine touchscreen grid is bothersome on display
Heavier and bulkier than other other tablets

Bottom Line
Acer Iconia Tab is a great, reasonably priced choice if you want to access your content via USB sources, but the current limitations of Android 3.0 and what you can do with that content via USB, coupled with this tablet’s display quirks, still make it a qualified recommendation.

Price: $449 (16GB, Wi-Fi-Only)

Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101

Pros
Currently the most affordable Honeycomb tablet. Speedy Nvidia Tegra 2 processor. Honeycomb features strong multitasking, e-mail and calendar notifications. HDMI out for HD video and mirroring. $150 keyboard dock accessory turns the tablet into a virtual notebook.

Cons
Honeycomb interface can be cluttered. Virtual keyboard is slightly modified and doesn't handle predictive text well.

Bottom Line
The Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101 distinguishes itself from the sea of emerging Honeycomb tablets with its aggressive pricing, and an optional accessory that turns it into a virtual notebook.

Price: $399 (16GB, Wi-Fi-Only), $499 (32GB, Wi-Fi-Only)

Motorola Xoom

Pros
The first Android tablet with Google's tablet-specific Honeycomb OS. Flash support. Fast. Beautiful, highly responsive touch screen. HDMI output for television/computer monitor viewing.

Cons
User interface seems a bit overcomplicated at times. While promised in the future, there's no support for SD cards at launch. Android Market selection is weak for Honeycomb.

Bottom Line
The Motorola Xoom for Verizon Wireless is a solid Android tablet with Flash support, but it doesn't measure up to the Apple iPad 2 in terms of app selection.

Price: $499 (32GB, Wi-Fi-Only), $599 (32GB, Wi-Fi + 3G), $799 (Wi-Fi + 3G, w/o contract)

The thinnest tablet currently available. Excellent 10.1-inch HD screen. Honeycomb 3.1 brings improved multitasking, Flash support, and a higher-quality user experience. Comes with earbuds—a rarity for a tablet.

Cons
Samsung plans to customize the OS down the road, which may slow down future Android updates. App selection is very weak. Even with a strong Wi-Fi signal, online video playback sputtered in our tests.

Toshiba Thrive

Pros
Integrated USB, mini-USB, HDMI ports, and SDXC card slot. User-removable battery can be swapped out, replaced. Honeycomb OS is generally well-designed, great for multitasking.

Cons
Bulkiest of all the Honeycomb tablets thus far. Not competitively priced.

Bottom Line
With full USB functionality and a replaceable battery, the Toshiba Thrive is better outfitted for business tasks than most Honeycomb tablets. But in a world where a svelte tablet build is important, its bulkiness is bound to be a turn-off for some.
