Mobilized Gets Hands-On With Google’s Honeycomb (Video)

After Google finished putting Honeycomb through its paces, the throngs of reporters were turned loose into a packed and quite small demo area to get our hot little hands on some Motorola tablets running the OS.

Although we spoiled a lot of the surprise with our preview stories, there were demos of the OS itself, as well as partners like Sports Illustrated, Zynga and CNN showing off their Honeycomb apps.

I’ll also have more later today based on some comments from Hugo Barra, who chatted about the work that went into Honeycomb, as well as how some of the features will make their way back to the phone version of Android.

In the meantime, enjoy the video.
