Android 3.1 is a variation on Android 3.0 (often called Honeycomb) that offers a host of small improvements, including support for Google's new movie streaming app and resizable widgets.

Cloud music doesn't appeal to me. If I have a connection, I'd rather stream content from AOL Radio, iHeartRadio, Pandora, ShoutCast, etc.

Nor to Me, but the news of HC 3.1 and Ice Cream Sandwich is interesting.

The nice appeal about the Cloud music/storage is, it scans your library : WMP, iTunes, etc and you have your music where ever you want. I'm using Amazon's and it's pretty sweet .

VERY disappointed though at the lack of any USB or sd card reader or even a micro HDMI. Looks like it'll be dongle connections.

Good looking device though.

My primary portable device for my music collection is my Sansa Clip+ and it's not cloud capable. I have enough variety stored in its internal memory to keep me satisfied. If I need additional variety, I just swap out 8GB mSD cards.

I don't load music on my Nook Color or iPod touch 4. For those devices I do online streaming. Right now, my touch is in a speaker dock and I'm streaming the Radio.com app. I'm listening to Chevron Radio which does separate years from 1960 to 2010.
