Sony is trying to muster up some much needed attention for their first born Android tablet by dropping its price by $100. If you were considering a Sony Tablet S but held back because of price, now may be a good time to take the plunge. Both the 16GB and 32GB version have been discounted to $399.99 and $499.99 respectively.

Christmas is over, the gifts are opened, and now many of you out there are holding brand spanking new Android devices.

We’re here to help, and we love hearing your opinions and feedback.

With CES only a few weeks away, we’re preparing ourselves for what is surely going to be an Android extravaganza. With Android activations surpassing 700,000 devices per day, it would be unwise for any company to ignore its strong market presence. This leads us to believe CES 2012 will be chock full of Android goodness. We’re going to dive into a few products and announcements we expect to see this year, along with a few things we’re keeping our fingers crossed about.
