Google Reader: Tablet version available

Little new but should delight more than one: Google has finally turned its application “Google Reader” on Android Honeycomb. As you can imagine, this is not a simple port and if Google has taken its time, because the application has received the same care as other applications in the past Android Honeycomb. We thus find the famous two-part navigation screen and ergonomics perfectly suited for use tablet.
The first time, you combine Google Reader to your Gmail account: synchronization is instantaneous and navigation is closer to a version “desktop” as a mobile version. So, this does not correct the main defect of the browser version: everything is very rough and if you have many RSS feeds, search by subject is essential. We regret that while Google has not thought about leaving the search bar always visible… Google Reader

ViewSonic ViewPad 10pro Tablet To Run Both Android 2.3 And Windows 7

In an interesting twist, ViewSonic wants to try again at the tablet market. Rather than running Honeycomb or waiting for the next installation of Android, they’ve decided to use Bluestack’s Android virtualisation built in so Android can run as an application in Windows 7. Essentially, touch an icon to switch between Android and Windows. The tablet also features a 1.5 GHz Intel-powered processor, and the four Android buttons we all love. No price has been released for this US only (at launch) device. I can’t imagine that a tablet running Windows with the ability to essentially simulate Android will sell too well outside of the hacker world. Especially when you consider that the predecessors for Android 2.3 and Windows 7 appear to be just around the corner. But who am I to say what the market wants? At least it’s something different. What do you guys think? Failed before launch, or getting some kind of dedicated developer following ala Nexus One? ViewSonic is marketing it for business users so who knows.

The Tribune Co. may develop their own tablet

Newspapers are a dying bread, but the tablets could save them. Developing applications for Android and Apple doesn’t seem to be enough for the Tribune Co, one of the largest U.S. news enterprises. They are working on a tablet to offer to subscribers.
The Tribune Co. owns many major newspapers like, the Chicago Tribune, the Los Angeles Times, and the Baltimore Sun, along with 23 television stations.
The tablet is expected to a run a modified version of Android along with software for the owner’s hometown paper. They could offer the tablet for free to customers who agree to extended subscriptions to one of its papers. This is no different then what the carriers offer, but the Tribune might also partner with a carrier to help subsidize costs.
There is no word on who will manufacture the tablet, but they supposedly have talked to Samsung and others not named. This project has proved to be difficult as they were hoping to begin testing by mid-August which won’t happen.
I think this is a great idea. The newspapers need to do something if they want to stick around, but this is not their specialty. I think developing their own doesn’t make sense. Why not partner with one of the manufacturers and offer and existing tablet that is already in the market like the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1? Companies like the Tribune are not in the technology business, they are in the news business.
