The Sony Tablet S is no longer as interesting as it used to be when the company launched it but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t get occasional updates. Quite the contrary – everyone wins when companies treat its old customers with new software versions.
After getting its serving of Ice Cream Sandwich, the Tablet S is updated with few features its younger brother, Xperia Tablet S, has. Three notable things are:
- Guest Mode – which allows multiple users to log into separate profiles and use just a few apps without being allowed to access settings and private files.
- Improved media players – including the brand new WALKMAN music player.
- Small Apps – like mini browser, IR remote, calculator, voice recorder and timer, all of which can be overlaid over an existing open app.
In addition, this firmware also packs other features, such as new macro functionality on the Remote Control app, new widgets (like Topics) and Socialife (former Social Feed Reader Cloud).
Pretty cool and definitely worth pushing the button.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
