Sony Android Tablet S Launching in U.S. Sept. 16 for $499

[dgstorm]

The general release for the WiFi version of the new Sony Android Tablet, the Sony S, will be September 16th. The device will be $499.99 for the 16GB version and $599.99 for the 32GB version. Furthermore, it is already available for pre-order. Here's a summary of some of the specs for this tablet:

• 9.4" screen
• 1 GHz dual core Tegra 2
• WiFi
• Universal IR remote
• Latest Android platform - not sure if they mean Gingerbread since no specifics were given
• Sony Entertainment Network with Music Unlimited, Video Unlimited and games for PS Certified devices
• 16GB Version and 32GB Version available

This seems like a decent Android product. It has good aesthetics and Sony's decent quality. They do tend to be a bit tardy on the update side of things with their phones, but many of their products are fairly solid overall. Share your thoughts in the forums.

I just want to know if this tablet can connect to my PS3 so I can transfer PSP games that I've already downloaded to play on it?

Sorry to post this, but want to make sure everyone has to option to see it.

For those who can't wait to buy one, I have two Sony S Tablets in my possession, and I'm selling them to anyone in the US through eBay:
