Hands-on look at Sony Tablets S and P
Summary: Way back in April, Sony announced its plan to enter the tablet game with a pair of uniquely-designed tablets that definitely go against the traditional look of the iPad and others. Here is a hands-on look at both the Sony Tablet S and Tablet P.

Make no mistake about it: both of these tablets are consumer-focused devices. Sony reps reminded me that Sony is an entertainment company, and these devices are in fact reflective of that.
That isn't to say that they can't be used for professional purposes. They are still Android 3.0 Honeycomb-based machines, and users can download productivity apps and such from the Android Market as they please.

Pretty harsh there...
I thought your comment was lazy.
I found the article to be informative and concise. A short set of decent photos with a quick blurb of interesting comments for each (sure beats just photos with no text).
If you want more detail, a link in the first caption takes you there.
Sony sure went a different route

A little hypocracy, don't you think?
Then, in a later caption she says that she likes the Sony's full-size SD slot that is "woefully missing from most tablets".
What about tablets that lack ANY standard slots -- namely the iPad?
I am a big iPad user myself, but I like fair comparisons. Android has gotten pretty good on tablets, with release 3.2. You should check it out.

Its a problem with modern day blogger/journalists. They are not afraid (or not aware) to tell you they are biased from the get go and don't see a problem with that. Ask anyone who studied journalism why thats bad. To me many bloggers are sensationalists trying to gather click throughs as demanded by their bosses rather than the story. The story almost seem secondary.

I agree with you there buddy... How is Sony even still in business? They just make a ton over priced crap devices. Their devices aren't compatible at all, the design is all over the place, and they lack innovation.
