The Android Markeplace support is the big announcement. When it launches later in the summer, Google will be encouraging developers to make multi-screen apps which run on your Android Honeycomb tablet and Google TV simultanously. It’s Google’s plan to make Google TV stand out and it could well work, especially as the search giant is promising a new “simplified” UI.
The move to Android Honeycomb will also put Google TV in line to get the Google Music and Google Movies support just like the rest of the Android device family. Now all Google need to do is get Google TV shipping to the UK and open up Google Music and Google Movies to Brits!
