New SONY Tablet S
Just had a look at the new SONY Tablet S about to be released end of October.Why I am interested is that I am not a big fan of Apple products, they are too restrictive with their licensing and applications but I'd like an 'always-on' device in the lounge dining area that lets me browse recipes and event information etc. SONYs tablet is running Android OS and as we are a SONY household, TV, PS3, etc this tablet also will control these via WiFi and play all the games, browse the web etc.
What I'd like to know is there any good astro software being written for Android devices. It has GPS so I am guessing it may also be capable of the point and identify type function.
Went to the SONY shop yesterday and had a play with one, very impressive. Might be a Xmas pressie to ourselves if it works as good as it looks and says. Price NZ for a 32 gig model as nearly $1000. Not sure whether to wait a bit for generation 2 although this looks quite well featured. Only missing capability I noticed is mobile via cellular connection.
