New tablet 10 inch

I am no expert but I thought HC required a dual core processor. SO I wouldn't think the 8" would run HC anyway and even the 8" does not appear to have the capacitive buttons.

There are no dual core requirements in Android. In fact the hardware standards for all versions of Android are well below the specs of even low end devices.
really, good to know. I have never really paid much attention to android for tablets since I never had one. Just seems there was always some comment about HC being specific to tablets due to the dual core or something. I guess I will start paying more attention to it now that I have one. again as long as there is root available it may be a good thing in the interim until ICS is hopefully available for the vtab1008.
The people at Gizmodo seemed to like the new tablet. Here's what they had to say:

Here is a good summary of Android and its versions http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...sions/28063-android-visual-history-verge.html. the only reason HC is tablet specific is because Google left out phone features/compatibility in order to rush it out the door.

I wouldnt mind picking up a 10 inch vizio tablet if it has dynamic memory, the ir blaster, dual core processor and a good price point. I know I am picky

I have until the end of January to return my Vizio to Costco and might just do it.
Mostly because the Remote Control app sucks.

I don't care about ICS... just give me HoneyComb so I don't have these wonky scaled up phone apps.

I also read they are getting into the PC and laptop business.

Not only that but ICS is generally an improvement on HC short comings across the board, so why would you want that over ICS? Be careful what you wish for indeed

I'd be fine with software buttons in replacement of the capacitative buttons. I just can't stand the blown up feel of the interface. ICS would be nice. But apps build for tabs. and Apps2SD that actually worked would be a welcome update.
Great News...The 10" sounds like a winner...I wonder about PRICING......Also the news that Honeycomb for the 8" will be out this month according to the Rep on the Video.....I also read some thing (iPad 3 Release Date Rumors, News, and Information) that when Ipad 3 is release IPad2 may be priced at $299, but that is just a rumor....Thanks to all and I wait anixously for HONEYCOMB
