- Ben Sillis, ElectricpigAndroid Honeycomb isn’t quite ready for prime time. It’s frustrating at times, and the optimised apps aren’t out in force yet. But it is ready for the sizeable army of people already willing to put up with cheap hardware and terrible UI just to avoid Apple’s clutch. Ultimately, these problems combi...
