More Photos of Intel’s Medfield Honeycomb Tablet ‘Red Ridge’

Posted on 14 September 2011

Due to a broken SD card reader on my laptop, we weren’t able to photos of Intel’s Medfield-based Honeycomb tablet out immediately.

Posted on 11 September 2011

While this might sound confusing to those who know that Google TV already runs an Intel-optimised Android build, it does make sense.
