Android Apps Get Big Break on Google TV

The Google TV software update released on Friday focuses on four areas: simplicity, improved search, a custom YouTube experience and Android apps.
The interface is simpler, the customizable home screen has been redesigned to offer swift access to an owner's favorite content, and all shortcuts are shown within the "all apps" feature, similar to how it's done on an Android smartphone or tablet, Google said.
The search feature has been improved across the board. Further, a new app called "TV & Movies" lets consumers browse through 80,000 movies and TV episodes across cable, satellite, Netflix (Nasdaq: NFLX), Amazon (Nasdaq: AMZN), YouTube and other sites.
Google has also integrated YouTube more closely with Google TV search so consumers can turn any topic into a channel.
The YouTube experience for Google TV has been revamped so consumers can get to videos more rapidly.
Finally, Google TV now has access to the Android Market. So far, 50 developers have put up Google TV apps on the Android Market.
The update will be available on Sony devices early next week and on Logitech (Nasdaq: LOGI) devices after that. More updates and more Google TV partners are in the works.

It's The Apps That Count
Google reached out to devs to create apps for Google TV at the device's launch back in May of 2010, so why have only 50 devs responded, given the phenomenal growth rate of Android mobile apps?
We worked closely with these developers to get their apps ready for the update," Google's Herbert said. The update itself will include Android and Web apps from more than 100 partners when it's released, he added.
More than 50 of these partners have developed new apps for the update, and there will be about 800 Android apps available on the Android Market, of which 30 will work well on television.
With thousands of developers, we expect new apps to appear on Google TV all the time," Herbert stated. Apps will be offered by partners including CNN Money, Flixter, Fox Business, Kraft (NYSE: KFT) Cooking, NPR, Motor Trend and The Wall Street Journal, he elaborated.
Supporting a new platform such as a TV is not simply about porting the code over," Simon Khalaf, president and CEO of Flurry Analytics, told TechNewsWorld. "It's about developing a great experience.
It will take time to develop Google TV apps, "but the excitement [among devs] is there, and in big numbers," Khalaf added.
On the other hand, perhaps Google hasn't funded app development efforts sufficiently, suggested Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group.
Another factor could be that few Android app devs are really making any money, Enderle told TechNewsWorld.

iPad vs. Motorola Xoom vs. Everything else

Android tablets expected to gain ground over time, but for now Apple's iPad rules, even in the enterprise

We debated whether to call this piece "iPad vs. Motorola Xoom" or "iPad vs. Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1" or whatever the Android tablet du jour is. But really it's still "iPad vs Everything Else."

And some of the others are taking a beating. HP threw in the towel on its webOS-based TouchPad barely month after it was introduced last summer, kissing goodbye to its one billion dollar buyout of Palm, the webOS creator. RIM's PlayBook hasn't played well to critics or to end users. And the Android tablets?

No one seems to know just how many have actually been sold since the first ones began to appear in 2010 and especially in 2011 after Google released its tablet-optimized Android 3.0 (dubbed Honeycomb). Strategy Analytics reported in early October that 4.5 million Android tablets had shipped (not actually sold to end users) in the most recent quarter, counting all Android OS versions and including devices such as the Amazon Kindle ereader. But GigaOm's Kevin Tofel, who picked up that report, used his ownformula to calculate a figure that was about 25% lower, 3.4 million Android 3.0 tablets actually sold.

No matter what the figure, it's far, far less than those for the iPad, which we don't have to estimate. Apple sold 11.1 million of the tablets in its just-ended fourth quarter, a record; andApple executives said they expect another record in the final calendar quarter of this year. Altogether, according to an Apple spokesman, over 40 million iPads have been sold since the original model was released in 2010, barely 18 months ago.

"Apple's iPad 2 is the one to beat," writes Network World Clear Choice Tester Tom Henderson in a recent review of 10 tablets, including iPad2, to see how they fit enterprise requirements. "The subjective look and feel are strong, and mobile device management controls can contain iPad 2 use through pushed, authenticated policy control."

Depending on your specific enterprise requirements, the iPad may come up short compared to rivals. For example, the GammaTech Durabook U12C is a ruggedized hybrid notebook-tablet, running a nicely-adapted version of Windows 7. It can endure drops, poundings, kicks, spills, and temperature extremes. But those virtues come at a price: it weighs 5.5 pounds, and has a $1,400-plus price tag. Henderson and others also like the Fujitsu Stylistic Q550, another Windows 7 tablet with a 1280x800, 10-inch anti-glare screen, powered by an Intel Atom chip. But it, too, is somewhat pricey: $729 for the 32GB model, and $849 for the 64GB model.

Even well-reviewed tablets like the Motorola Xoom struggle. In July, Motorola said it sold 400,000 Xooms; Apple sold 9.25 million iPads during the same period.

What accounts for the iPad's success, especially, and astonishingly, in the enterprise, where according to Apple over 90% of the Fortune 500 are deploying or piloting the tablet?

In Network World's case studies, what emerges as key are not technical features such as the CPU, RAM and storage. Rather, it's the fundamental simplicity of the "iPad experience." And that experience is a combination of the 9.7-inch screen, the touch interface combined with the Safari Web browser, the instant-on capability and never having to worry about battery life.

Township High School District 214, located in Cook County, Illinois, is almost a "poster child" for the tablet as a "content consuming device," which is how many have pigeon-holed the iPad. This year, the district bought 850 Apple tablets for incoming freshman, who use the device in place of paper notebooks, calendars and text books. But "consumption" is being extended into collaboration and creation through cloud services and server virtualization, trends that are spreading in more traditional enterprise sites as well.

At MicroStrategy, a vendor of business intelligence software, iPads are leading to unexpected changes in the way people work, and work together.

About 2,300 employees now have an Apple iPad, usually an iPad 2, and many also have aniPhone 4.  The tablets provide access to some existing Web applications, originally created for the laptops, to current business data via the MicroStrategy business intelligence suite, and to a fast-growing array of PDF-based documents, and watch or show corporate videos. The company is creating an expanding group of internal iOS applications for the tablets, including one that lets employees and managers quickly file and approve expense reports, time-off requests and other internal house-keeping tasks.

Many rivals have been struggling to replicate that experience. "Apple's iOS offers remarkably consistent interface, even across many third-party apps, where Android continues to be a mishmash of styles and metaphors, and often labors under third-party patinas that make matters even more confusing for everyday users," writes Geoff Duncan, in a recent assessment of the tablet market at DigitalTrends.com. "In short, iOS was tuned for the iPad when it debuted, but with Android 3.0 Google struggled to shoehorn a smartphone operating system into tablets, and is still sweating many of the details."

But after failures and disappointments, Apple's rivals may be starting to find their feet. Informa Telecoms & Media in late July forecast the tablet market will surge from less than 20 million units in 2010 to over 230 million in 2015; and better and cheaper Android devices will reach 87 million in that year, just below a projected 90 million iPads. Amazon's new Kindle Fire, one of new breed of 7-inch tablets, has been winning good grades for its affordable price, and integrated services. Others are becoming thinner and lighter, better performing and more affordable.
