2010 was almost certainly the year of the Android powered phone, with the open source operating system overtaking iOS to become the most used mobile operating system, and now it seems 2011 is shaping up to become the year of Android running tablets.

Android tablets have been around for a few years now, but 2011 presents the first time Google has shipped a tablet optimized version of Android, in this case Android 3.0 Honeycomb. The first Honeycomb powered tablet to be announced was the Motorola Xoom, but it looks like every major electronics company has a tablet in the works.
