Android, Computer, Mobile, News, Tablet, Technology 8:59 PM

Google already announced that it would host a media event next week, on September 29, when we're all expecting the company to unveil two new Nexus smartphones (the LG-made Nexus 5X, and the Huawei-made Nexus 6P).<br />

<br />
But will Android 6.0 Marshmallow for older handsets be launched on that day, too? Well, we can't know for sure, but, according to Bell - one of Canada's largest mobile carriers - the Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 could be updated to the new version of Android on October 5. However, this date is subject to change.<br />
<br />
Needless to say, the Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 should be the world's first handsets to get the Marshmallow update (Nexus smartphones are always the first to be updated). Of course, the October 5 date might be valid just for Canada, and we may see the Nexus 5 and 6 getting Android 6.0 Marshmallow sooner in the US. In any case, we should definitely expect updates to be rolled out not long after September 29. <br />
<br />
Currently available only as a Developer Preview, Android 6.0 Marshmallow comes with plenty of novelties and improvements over Android Lollipop, including Android Pay, enhanced Google Now, standardized fingerprint support, a new power saving mode dubbed "doze", and so on.<br />

When Android 3.0 Honeycomb debuted on the Motorola Xoom in late February, only a handful of apps were truly optimized to take advantage of Honeycomb's capabilities. Android still has a long way to go in catching up to Apple's 90,000-plus iPad apps, but Google's platform already has a cadre of apps ready and waiting to play nicely with the latest and greatest Android tablets. In addition to the Xoom, tablets already running Honeycomb include the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, the T-Mobile G-Slate, the (extremely popular) Asus Eee Pad Transformer, and the Acer Iconia Tab -- and many more are on the way. Let's look at some of the best business apps optimized for the Honeycomb OS.<br />
