    Google sweetens Android with full Honeycomb SDK

    Google has released a full SDK for Android 3.0, aka Honeycomb, Mountain View's mobile operating system targeted squarely at fondleslabs.
    "The APIs are final, and you can now develop apps targeting this new platform and publish them to Android Market," SDK Tech Lead Xavier Ducrohet announced in a post on the Android Developer blog.

    The release of the full SDK comes just under a month after Google released a preview of the SDK in late January.

    Along with the new platform, Ducrohet also announced updates to the SDK Tool (r10) and the ADT Plugin for Eclipse (10.0.0). Goodies promised in these updates include UI Builder improvements such as an updated layout editor palette, more-accurate layout rendering, zoom improvements, and more.
    Google began showing off Honeycomb late last year, with the first demos appearing early last month and an official unveiling on February 2.
    As detailed on Google's Android 3.0 Platform Highlights page, Honeycomb is "designed from the ground up for tablets" – a sentiment reiterated by Google director of products for mobile Hugo Barra at the February 2 unveiling.
    "Android today is available for large-screen tablet-sized devices," Barra said at the time. He did, however, allow for some wiggle room when it comes to moving Honeycomb down into the smartphone zone. When asked about that eventuality, he said: "We don't know. That's a conversation we're having right now."
    Honeycomb hasn't made its way onto tablets quite yet. The honor of its arrival on store shelves is destined for the Motorola Xoom, which is set for release this Thursday.

    This is a really good news especially for Android developers. To be truth I think this is the most interesting Android OS so far for me beside of current 2.3 Gingerbread for Nexus S. (I'm waiting for dual-core phone with Gingerbread )
    I'm really looking forward to official announcement of the XOOM and full review for Hardware and Software.
    With this latest fully Honeycomb SDK, I hope there will be more apps to fully use the dual-core advantage.
    Sweet Android, sweet..

    I've played around with both the preview and the full SDK, and I have to say that just the little time I spent with it has really started convincing me that I should get a tablet with Honeycomb.

    Yes, it's awesome isn't it? I really love it no matter what! But, there're some problem with no flash support for now (not for long ) and some apps still don't merge into tablet size yet. Maybe with this SDK out, the apps for tablet will getting more and more.
