I hear everyone say that froyo isn’t going to work on tablets, but noone has really explained why. If the ipad is just an iPod touch with a larger screen, than what is android currently missing to compete with that?
Thanks

Hey Android pro’s,
I am considering getting a tablet (once one that interests me comes out of course). I’m curious if there’s a program or a way to tether an android tablet to an android phone so I can “piggy back” the internet from my cell phone without having to pay one of those ridiculous hotspot fees.
Thanks for the help guys, love the show!!!
Mark from Chicago
