The big brother to the HTC Flyer may be headed our way on Monday, June 27th. The company has begun sending out invites to a press event in London. An Android Honeycomb tablet, among other devices, is expected to headline the show.
We’ve known for some time HTC was planning a larger tablet. Codenamed Puccini, the soon-to-be announced slate will ship with Android 3.1 Honeycomb and include 4G support for AT&T’s HSPA+ network. Unlike the HTC Flyer which uses the pen/stylus, Pucinni will be all fingers. The slate is rumored to use a 1280 x 800 pixel display and feature Qualcomm’s MSM8660 1.5GHz dual-core processor.
Existing HTC Flyer owners are also expected to be in for a treat Monday. ITProPortal is reporting a HTC Flyer running Android 3.2 Honeycomb will be showcased. A release date for the HTC Flyer Android 3.2 update is expected at the event.
There’s still many questions left unanswered surrounding the HTC Puccini — namely the price. Will HTC look to undercut the £600 32GB HTC Flyer or will this be another overpriced tablet reserved for the rich and famous?
