MWC, February 2011. HTC's first tablet: a 7" 1024×600 display, a single-core 1.5 GHz Snapdragon, 1 GB of RAM, 16/32 GB of storage, 5 MP + 1.3 MP cameras, an aluminum unibody with white plastic inserts, and a weight of 420 g. Android 2.3 with Sense for tablets (later 3.2 Honeycomb). The main feature was the active HTC Scribe pen (N-trig technology, $80 extra) with notes and Evernote. The Sprint EVO View 4G (June 2011) was a WiMAX version with the pen included. The $499 Wi-Fi price did not pay off, and HTC wrote off inventory in 2012.

From Wikipedia

The HTC Flyer is a tablet computer by HTC Corporation. It was announced at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2011 and released in May 2011. Unlike other tablets announced at MWC, the Flyer has a single-core 1.5 GHz CPU and ran 2.3.3 (Gingerbread). In February 2011 it was reported that HTC had claimed via Facebook that "Flyer will be getting a Honeycomb upgrade in Q2", however an HTC representative subsequently stated "I can confirm that we are working to bring a Honeycomb update to Flyer in short order – however, I don't have any specific information on what the timing may be." The version running Android 3.2 Honeycomb was released later in 2011. The HTC Flyer can be updated up to Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean through the use of custom ROMs.
