Motorola Teases Honeycomb Tablet, Verizon Teases Android LTE Devices for CES 2011

Engadget's blurry first look at Motorola's tablet for Verion

The end of the year is coming, which means there’s a bit of a lull in terms of new gadgets. Instead we get a bunch of teasing from companies preparing to showcase their newest products at CES. Today we have two big, possibly related teases for the Consumer Electronics Show 2011.

The first big tease comes from Motorola. The company responsible for the Droid released a video today detailing the history of tablets, complete with a few jabs at competing tablets from Apple and Samsung. The video ends with the new red Motorola logo under a veiled tablet, with a bee flying around it. Seems like an obvious nod to the Android 3.0 Honeycomb tablet that keeps popping up from Motorola. It was last seen on stage at D: Dive Into Mobile in prototype form {Engadget}.

The other big tease comes as a bit of a gimme, with Verizon teasing LTE Android devices on January 6 {Twitter}. January 6 happens to be date where Verizon’s CEO will give the opening keynote presentation. So, it should be expected that the devices will be on display at the show. It could even be possible that we’ll see the Motorola Honeycomb tablet as part of that presentation. Shortly after the device appeared on stage Engadget scored a few images of a very similar device with Verizon branding. Of course, the tablet won’t be ready for launch at the show, but we’ll all be able to get a bit more information on the device, and other LTE Android devices.
