UK mobile network Three is to offer the HTC Flyer, a new Android-powered tablet from the makers of some of the best-selling Android handsets including the Hero.
The device is HTC’s first tablet and boasts a 7”, 1024 x 600 capacitive touchscreen, a 5MP camera and front facing camera and will run Android’s Gingerbread at launch with the potential to be upgraded.
