If you love the cloud, and find yourself spending time doing things such as email, social networking, and listening to music, then it could be ideal.

The biggest news so far is Google's entry into the movie rental business that will put the company into competition with Netflix, Amazon and Apple iTunes most notably.

Will Sony's move into the market be a success, and possibly take away share from the Apple iPad?

The Amazon Appstore is not going to change the world, but it's the best alternative to Google's stock Android store that we've yet seen.

My suspicion relates to the underwhelming Motorola Xoom.

No matter how you slice it, Google has done a remarkable job with Android. In only three years they have entered the smartphone market, established a new brand and quickly positioned themselves as a major force alongside Apple and RIM.

iPad 2 is the pinnacle of design. Jobs calls it the "Intersection of Technology and Liberal Arts." Kool-aid? Probably. But for now I'm guessing it's the drink of choice.

The Moto Xoom grabbed an astonishing amount of attention at CES earlier this year. So much so that you might've thought Justin Bieber was about to cameo on Glee. Yet, I'm underwhelmed by the lack of apps written specifically for Android tablets such as the Samsung Galaxy Tab.

Perhaps the Xoom is a victim of over-engineering, and is trying to please too many over-seers.

Honeycomb is generally regarded as critical to Google's tablet strategy.
