According to Bobby Cha, managing director of Korean consumer electronics firm Enspert, Google's upcoming Android 3.0 software, dubbed Honeycomb, will have a number of hardware requirements.
The tablet-optimized OS will require a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor at minimum, as well as 1,280x720 resolution.
As of writing, the only processor with that power is the Nvidia Tegra 2, although a few have been promised for 2011.
Although it will require 720p resolution, Cha made sure to note that "Honeycomb does not require 10-inch [screens] ... it's going to go as small as 7-inches."
Motorola's upcoming tablet will be the first on the market with 3.0, adds Cha.
Toshiba and LG will also have Honeycomb tablets out in the coming months.
