HTC has made good on its promise to bring Honeycomb to its HTC Flyer Android tablet. HTC had to include support for its Scribe technology and custom UI and that’s why it took them a tad longer to get it out to customers. The Honeycomb update is rolling out now and will bring the HTC Flyer from Gingerbread to Android 3.2. There’s been different reports going around that the update is rolling out to WiFi only models, but we’ve also heard that the 3G versions is seeing the update, so we’re not exactly sure who’s getting it at this point.


As CES approaches, we are bound to get wind of many yet-to-be announced devices, like the one we see in the above image. This leaked image obtained by NOTEBOOKitalia reveals a mysterious 7″ ASUS Android tablet. Unfortunately the image didn’t come with any information to help identify itself, but we can sure speculate. We’re thinking this will end up being either a 7″ Eee Pad Transformer Prime, 7″ Eee Pad Memo, or possibly even a 7″ ASUS Padfone (though we doubt it).


If you’re on Google+ and looking for a little Android fun, Google has just the thing for you. They’d like you to share your Android adventures by taking a photo of your Android (not your phone but the little green guy) out and about. Maybe you and the little guy just got back from some deep sea diving off the coast of Australia, or perhaps you and your green pal just finished climbing Mt. Everest. Of course we all can’t be Mr. Adventure, so think of any creative or funny place to bring your trusty Bugdroid and snap a photo.


WiFi Motorola XOOM owners may be in for a treat. Motorola has begun sending out invitations asking “Google Experience” XOOM WiFI owners to participate in a new project. They go on to inform users that the project is confidential and that you must first meet certain requirements to partake in this particular project. It’s all very mysterious, but given the fact that they specifically refer to the XOOM as a “Google Experience” device, it’s highly likely that they are preparing to release the Android 4.0 update and are looking to test it out.


When we told you Gameloft would be kicking off the new year by discounting all of its Android Market titles to $0.99, many headed straight to the Android Market to download Modern Combat 3. To their dismay, MC3 was still full price. That’s because Gameloft planned on having MC3 on sale for one day only, and they planned on keeping us on edge as to when it would go on sale. Well, today’s the day. You’re going to want to hurry fast because this offer only stands for today, and grabbing a console quality game such as MC3 for only $0.99 is like Christmas all over again.
