    Toshiba created a slick teaser website for showing off their 'soon-to-come' new Honeycomb Android 3.0-based Toshiba Tablet. The funny kicker is that if you try to access the site from an iOS device like the Apple iPad, you get the above picture...

    Those crazy clowns...

    Hilarious and true!

    The desktop version of that actually runs pretty smoothly on my stock Galaxy S with 2.2 and the newest Flash, even the 360°viewing mouseover stuff works decently well.

    Ha, the irony. I sent the link to my ipad friend and told him to view it both on his computer and ipad.

    This is smart, but Toshiba so far has sucked at making Android tablets.
