| 20 | CleanVideoEpisode 14: Honeycomb equals Gingerbread, Android chaos vs. Apple zen and rooted users blocked from Movies for Android | In this week's episode we discover that Android Honeycomb, 3.0 is effectively just a re-skinned Android Gingerbread, 2.3. This information comes thanks to an intrepid user on the XDA Developers forum. Anyone that looks at the current Android tablet landscape would be forgiven for thinking its chaotic. It is. The Intel and Nvidia CEOs both still say that Android is the OS to watch on tablets and as prices come down and manufacturers standardize on specs, it'll get a lot better. We're still waiting for the Google reference design tablet that we talked about in episode seven. Turns out that if you've rooted your phone, you're blocked from using Google's new Movies for Android service. Google's response was that rooted users could, in theory, dig in to their phones, grab rented or streaming movies and in turn, pirate them. Lame. | 5/25/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
