IBM Cognos Mobile to support Android 3.0 (honeycomb) and Blackberry Playbook

IBM Cognos Mobile has just announced with FP1 for their latest release of IBM Cognos Mobile 10.1 more support for tablets. IBM Cognos Mobile 10.1 FP1 will support Android browser also the Playbook browser. This is a giant step of IBM Cognos support towards tablets. Earlier only Apple Safari browser was supported with IBM Cognos Mobile 10.1.

Since the growth of tablets and Google and RIM launching their competitive tablets to Apple's iPad, support for these two browsers was much needed. Still, HP's webOS is missing from the list of supported environments, probably because HP's much awaited TouchPad still isn't available in market.

Check out the link for all supported environments for IBM Cognos Mobile 10.1.
