Google has announced Google TV will be to run Android apps starting this summer. The announcement was made during its I/O conference keynote. The Google TV will reportedly get updated with Android 3.1 Honeycomb this summer which brings Android Market to the device. Android 3.1 will bring enhanced multitasking features that will allow you to access many more applications than the standard five you’re given with Android 3.0. The dedicated multitasking option for Honeycomb was received rather well, so we weren’t surprised to see this feature beefed up a bit. Other features that aren’t necessarily huge were also announced, like the ability to resize widgets. This small but useful feature was on the list of things we wished Honeycomb shipped with when it launched with the XOOM, and it’s finally here. The updated version of Honeycomb also allows devices to act as a USB host. Now you can transfer photos from your digital camera to your tablet, without the need of a computer. Of course, this new feature isn’t limited to cameras, and a “ridiculous amount” of USB devices are supported. You can now hook a USB game controller to your device and play games that way if you so choose. There have been rumors floating around that Apple will bring apps to the Apple TV. The second generation Apple TV runs iOS; however, it does not yet offer developers the possibility to create apps for the device without jailbreaking it first.
