The news is official and comes from an ' interview published in the Nikkei , the Japanese business newspaper, in which the President of the Japanese giant (Sony) has revealed more details about what they want in the so called ''iPad Killer of 2011''. According to them the tablet will be presented in the next months and launched in the U.S. market by the end of the summer . They have also confirmed that the tablet will have Honeycomb Android 3.0 , the version of the mobile operating system Google created expressly for the tablet .
