Unfortunately, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 I received at Google IO does not support accessory mode (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6355031/how-can-i-get-the-adk-demokit-example-working-on-a-google-i-o-galaxy-tab-10-1). Which Android tablet currently does? I spoke with one of the Google engineer's at the conference who was running the DemoKit app on a tablet, but I didn't catch which one he was using, and whether that device was rooted or not. Is there a tablet out there running Honeycomb 3.1 that installs/runs the DemoKit app right out of the box without having to be rooted?

The adk stuff runs great on the Xoom, now on Android 3.2. I've been using both ADK accessory mode and USB host mode, and I haven't rooted it. The demoKit works great, although the Arduino-side can be a little tricky (usb host shield libraries) without an official ADK board.

I got the simple demo's working on the asus eee TF101, android version 3.2.1 I do have a bit of weir behavior that the android app wants to force quit a few times and the connection to the adk is not made immediately (can't choose to have the accessory connect to the app from a list the tablet pops up), but after a few times back and forth between the app and the home screen (through several 'force quit' dialog boxes), I do get the option to connect the accessory (ADK board) to be connected to the example app and then it all works as wanted. I do have the same behavior on a Nexus One phone, so I'm guessing there may be something not quite right in my SDK setup.

Samsung Galaxy 10.1 Tab with updated Android 3.2 works fine with Google ADK board. I could see all sensors working fine. My issue is to get the tab work with Arduino Mega ADK.
