Home Screen
The main part of Honeycomb is the screen size. With greater resolution makes Honeycomb View seem bigger than the previous Android.

Another interesting feature of Android is Live Wallpaper. On Honeycomb, Live Wallpaper also available with a more indulgent eye effect.
Live Wallpaper on Asus Eee Pad Transformer is Maps and My Water. Maps will display a map location from Google Maps.
While My Water will display the surface of the water with floating ice chunks. Surface water will be skewed according to the position of the tablet, while the water levels reflect the status of the device battery.
