Sony Tablet S owners can now join the Ice Cream Sandwich party and enjoy the tasty goodness the update brings to the device. Sony finally pushed out their update nearly 5 months after confirming the Tablet S would be getting ICS.<br />

<br />

Owners will receive the notification the next time they connect to a WiFi network, according to Sony. Additional features unlocked with the update include the ability to gain direct access to media on the SD card, an enhanced lock screen and some &#39;Exclusive&#39; apps - a calculator (wow&#33;), browser and remote control.<br />

<br />

Quite honestly a lot of these &#39;enhancements&#39; should have been available in the Honeycomb release.<br />

<br />

The full list of enhancements:

    <br />
  • Enhanced lock screen<br />
  • Direct access to Notifications<br />
  • Unlock direct to camera<br />
  • New panoramic camera mode<br />
  • Enhanced Gallery media viewer<br />
  • Direct SD card access + photo editing tools<br />
  • Exclusive “Small Apps’ for multi-tasking<br />
  • Calculator, Browser, Remote Control<br />
  • Move to screen edge for reduced clutter<br />
  • New Home Screen actions<br />
  • Drag icons together to create folders<br />
  • Add names to folders<br />
  • Enhanced web browser<br />
  • Switch from mobile to desktop web sites<br />
  • Save pages for offline viewing<br />
  • Access files directly from SD card<br />
  • Native screenshot capture by pressing &quot;power&quot; and &quot;Volume –&quot;<br />

<br />

Sony have also released a video on YouTube:<br />
