Android BBC iPlayer app now compatible with 10″ tablets
The BBC has updated its Android iPlayer app once more, today uploading a version of the code designed to play nicely with 10″ tablets. Previously, owners of big-screened devices were simply forwarded to the BBC’s mobile web site by the app, while phone and smaller tablet users got the actual app experience.
Now 10″ tablet owners get the app look and feel, too. The BBC says it’s also amended the layout slightly for users of 7″ tablets and mobiles…
…while the “work continues” in bringing Android owners the option to download content for watching while away from radio signals. Give it a whirl here.

Aside from having Google’s services both tablets be sold pre-installed with VUDU, walmart.com, sams.com, Nook eReader, Pandora Internet Music, Facebook and NVIDA’s TegraZone applications.
According to Jonathan Frank, Vice President of Marketing, Hisense USA, “Hisense is proud to introduce cutting-edge tablet technology that is accessible to the broadest demographic, with unmatched performance in the current market landscape. ”Our new Hisense Sero 7 tablets provide Walmart customers with an attractive, robust and highly powerful entertainment, communication and productivity tool.”
He further added that “Driven by enthusiastic, technology-loving consumers combined with dynamic and progressive app stores, the tablet has quickly evolved from a standalone computing device into a highly connected, eminently-useful component of the home ecosystem. As one of the largest and most advanced true CE manufacturers — with offerings in entertainment, communication, HVAC and white goods — it’s fitting that Hisense makes a strong showing in the tablet sector and today’s introduction of Sero 7 comprehensively achieves this goal!”

Sony Xperia Tablet Z global release details confirmed
Sony has announced the global availability of the Xperia Tablet Z. Basically, that is to say those around the world will now be able to make the purchase. The tablet remains available as a pre-order for those in the US and at the present time, the estimated shipping date is showing as May 24, 2013.

Sony has the tablet available in two colors and with two storage options, though there is a catch. The 32GB Xperia Tablet Z is available in black or white. The 16GB model on the other hand is only available in black. Otherwise, Sony has the 16GB model priced at $499.99 and the 32GB model priced at $599.99.
As a recap, the Xperia Tablet Z features include a 10.1-inch Full HD Reality Display along with a quad-core 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro processor and 2GB of RAM. The tablet will be running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and also sporting features to include NFC, HDMI, WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0. Sony is also touting the Xperia Tablet Z as being the world’s slimmest and lightest 10-inch tablet which means a thickness of 0.27-inches and a weight of 1.09 pounds.
Other Xperia Tablet Z news arrived last week when Sony announced the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). This will not have an immediate effect on the average end-user and is instead focused more on the developer side of the house. In fact, Sony has made it clear the AOSP release is not for daily use. For those not familiar with AOSP, this is Sony making the software available for developers to play with and build upon.
A few other points worth mentioning include how the tablet is both water- and dust-resistant. With that, we did spend some hands-on time with the Xperia Tablet Z back in February during Mobile World Congress. The hands-on video is included here in the post, however those considering a purchase may also benefit from the full post and the additional images that are included.

Sony Xperia Tablet Z added to Android Open Source Project
We have seen several Sony branded devices being supported under the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). The Xperia S was supported back in 2012 and a more recent addition was the Xperia Z smartphone. As of today, Sony has announced AOSP support for the Xperia Tablet Z. Similar to those other offerings from Sony, this latest basically means that the Xperia Tablet Z software will be open and available for developers.

Take note of the word developers though because this is not going to be a build for the average end user. In fact, Sony has made a point to mention the “purpose of this project is not to make stable software suited for daily use.” In other words, that seems to be another way of saying that not everything will be working.
For example, some of the proprietary pieces will likely not be supported. Sony hasn’t specified exactly what is, and what isn’t working however in the past the unsupported items have included the modem and camera. Again, the release of this software goes to the developers and from here, Sony is looking for contributions. The project has a home on Github, which is listed as sonyxperiadev / device-sony-sgp321.
Aside from the launching of the AOSP, the Xperia Tablet Z recently came available for pre-order for those in the US market. The tablet is priced from $499.99, which is for the 16GB model. That model is available only in black, however the 32GB model is available in two colors — black and white. The 32GB Xperia Tablet Z is $599.99.
As of now the tablet is expected to begin shipping on May 24, 2013. A quick recap of the specs shows a device that will be running Jelly Bean and launching with a 10.1-inch Full HD Reality Display, quad-core 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro processor, 2GB of RAM, NFC and HDMI. The Xperia Tablet Z is also water and dust-resistant and measures in with a thickness of just 0.27-inches. Those interested in the tablet may also benefit from our previous hands-on coverage.

Archos officially announces 80 Xenon tablet, set for June launch at $199 asking price
Archos introduced another tablet to their Elements series, called the 80 Xenon. The 8-inch device will come with both 3G and WiFi capabilities, Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, a quad-core Snapdragon S4 1.2GHz processor, and a 1024 by 768 resolution IPS display.
This is shaping up to be a very affordable, mid-range tablet running Jelly Bean and with complete Google Play Store access.
The device will also come with 1GB of RAM and only 4GB of internal storage. The memory will be expandable, however, with a microSD card. The cameras are a little disappointing, as the 80 Xenon’s rear is only 2MP, and comes with a front facing “webcam.” The tablet will launch sometime in June for $199.99.

Archos Reveals The $200 80 Xenon Tablet: Android 4.1, 8-inch 4:3 Screen, And (Surprise!) A 3G Radio
Archos has been cultivating a reputation for cheap, mostly reliable tablets since long before Android slates were mainstream. Their latest creation isn’t all that remarkable: the 80 Xenon is squarely aimed at the iPad Mini, with an 8-inch, 1024×768 IPS screen, a Qualcom 1.2ghz quad-core (Snapdragon S4?) processor, and a price tag of $199.99. Oh, and it comes with unlocked 3G wireless broadband. Wait, what?
Yes indeed, the 80 Xenon is specifically designed and marketed with mobile wireless in mind. According to the Archos PR, the tablet will work with “any operator”, which we assume means pentaband GSM. At $200 (€169.99 in mainland Europe, £159.99 in the UK) this may be the cheapest 3G tablet we’ve ever seen from a reputable manufacturer.
