HTC have been on Twitter this week answering questions to concerned future HTC Flyer owners, who are worried that the 7 inch tablet which will ship with Android Gingerbread aka 2.3 won’t get a Honeycomb upgrade.
However HTC have been quick to respond explaining that once the Honeycomb source code is made available to them they will work on an upgrade.
This news not only gives possible Flyer owners a bright future, but it also goes someway to giving the rest of us an idea of what factories really know about the tablet specific Honeycomb OS.
