It is possible to do a largely broken version based on the system image in the emulator folder.

I guess by "some people" you meant yourself
The Preview SDK includes:
An early Android 3.0 system image for use in the Android emulator <------- *********
An Android 3.0 library with non-final APIs
A new WXGA emulator skin for an extra large Android Virtual Device
New documentation for Android 3.0, including a complete API reference, new developer guides, and an API differences report between Android 3.0 and 2.3.
From here : http://developer.android.com/sdk/preview/index.html

Yeap, there is a system image and I already pulled some apps ^^
Edit: The AVD is extremely slow... meeeh..
could someone at least get the browser working on the tab http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=930352
Source still needs to drop!
Same case with gingerbread. It was **** but ran. Once source dropped the magic began.
The launcher won't run with anything but the standard Xoom resolution

SIR!!
YES SIR!!
How about a please? Or wait until there's at least some semi-useful AOSP source available, the SDK build is not complete enough to be very useful. If you need to have a play with it, try using the VM in the SDK install.
From the 3.0 Platform highlights taken 'Android 3.0 is the first version of the platform designed to run on either single or multicore processor architectures.'
So I guess no need to leave the Tab behind !!! So I hope samsung will go ahead and deliver us this update!
Just one small story about Samsung, Tab, and Honeycomb...
About Samsung:
I hope that Samsung will port it for me so. Usually this is not normal in the real world, but Samsung will drop 2.3 for Galaxy S what is nowadays and old device, Galaxy Tab is newer and almost the first real, high quality Android tablet. This is clearly a tablet, what Honeycomb made for. The most sold Android phone is the Galaxy S and the most sold Android tablet the Galaxy Tab (with the totally agreements of problems about Samsung made this device before Google made the correct platform for it...), so nowadays the Samsung brand itself is very very strong and not just about the last years productions but these 2 products (real!)! So I think Samsung could make a 'small suicide' step if they forgot this device and forgot their users. They promised nothing, but could be a very negative echo about Samsung if they leave this device in the past, without any development.
About Honeycomb:
That is really not need hardcore hardware. The only real hw requirement is the strong video performance, but this is almost just for the new stock homescreen application. The lot full OpenGL handled screens and effects really need strong graphic performance, but Galaxy Tab in this case is not weak! For such situations the GFX performane is enought I think. The dual core CPU is just one very good addon, to make faster everything and make the device as one real device from the future, but for normal works the current hardware is enought. If Samsung dont want to overload the Tab then just need to leave out the new 'home'. For tabbed browsing the current RAM capacity is need to be enought. The device will not as fast as Xoom, but who care? Just leave out the needless plus features and give to the user the Honeycomb base with new browser, new gmail client, new settings, etc, etc... these are not power hungry things. One brand new device will better that Tab, but anyway we could use almost enything, and Samsung could make their brand more strong with hype and satisfied users of Tab as they do with Galaxy S.
Conclusions:
New Samsung devices? no problem, they will better, people will buy them, cause the new OLED screen, some new features, faster and harder hardware... but Tab could use Honeycomb as from this aspect it need nothing extra, and as a real tablet it need the OS what handle it in such way without any over glitches.
I hope Samsung will make a right decision, because there is no any real problem (nor technical nor business like) behind it!
Hi,
And please Samsung! Read my previous post!!!

You are completely true about this Samsung will push out the Tab2 in 16 days at the MWC2011 press event. If the tab is going to get the 3.0 its going to be the last update for the device. Also the Galaxy S is going to get its killing blow in 16days since the Galaxy S 2 is also comming out there.
Yes as you wrote, Samsung will drop the 2 new device to make new strong apperiance in the global market with the new devices, developments, etc... new user will buy them of course, some old user will sell the old products, and buy a new one but far from all. 2.3 for SGS will the latest as your wrote, and I hope that 3.0 will also the latest for SGT, its not bad, this is the only needed. With it Samsung will get strong user satisfactions, old users could boost the global brand loyality. I dont want Android 7.0 on these devices... theses versions is more then enought for this products, and this not sign that I will never buy a new Android device... more over... I will buy just not now (if Samsung leave me alone, I will never buy Samsung 'mobile' again, and this is true for lot of people), and if Samsung will go on this way I will buy one Samsung again... 6 month ago I hate Samsung with their software developments for SGS, now, currently, I like them, because they have enought power on software development to make themself one of the best. There are problems? where not? If Samsung could reach user satisfactions, with the current sw, hw developments they could be the largest company in this busines. The target is it, I think.
Just drop the new devices what will shine, if I were in situatuions to buy a new device, without hesitate I could buy them. There are lot of people in the word who just wait to these products... and there are some others as me, who bought the first device to simply satisfy, and we were those user who make stronger the reputation of Samsung. Is it problem to make me available Honeycomb? Don't thing so. But of course Samsung could use a wrong receipt, hope that will not!
YES I can taste the honeycomb anytime soon...
Hi,
I made a port of multi-window from note10.1 using some files and apps from the Galaxy Tab 2 forum to my note5.3 and just want to share some idea. My thread is here where you can see some screenshots taken from my note5.3. I have feeling that samsung is working on a possible multiwindow interface for 7.x tablets not just the 10.+ ones and the key could just be some multiwindow files from system/etc/permissions and perhaps swap some files from note10.1 to the Galaxy Tab 2. I dont have a tablet so I cant test my idea but wanted to share hoping someone might make good use of it.

This is an outstanding idea good sir, do you say this is working on your Note? I have the galaxy tab 2.0 7" I love the idea you have, would expand on the excellent jelly bean video player (resizable window) and would be an indispensible addition to android in general I believe.
Could it work on any large screen droid?

I do not have a Galaxy Tablet so I can't test and explore if it would work on the your tablet but I believe porting the right files from Note10.1 or Note1 or Note2 would enable multiwindows on your device. It is definely working in my Note1 and if you visit my thread you can see some screenshots of what I am talking about. I think this is exclusive to samsung made phones and tablets only.
Multi window for the Tab 2 would be awesome. Are there new news for it?
can the same files be run on p3100 rooted 404 official ?
Okay nice I can try this in my tab but you need to tall me what to do?? Secondly will the cwm flash file will work on tab 2??

Nice 1!
Hello. I have written an app that helps to improve the accuracy of the S-Pen. It works only on Note phones because Samsung has compiled some S-Pen device driver interfaces out of the tablet ROMs. It is not clear why they did this. I have asked Samsung but gotten no replies. I have confirmed that parts of the kernel code is commented out in the open source kernel code (and you can see that some of the interface files found on phones do not exist on the tablets). It seems that the tablets suffer from the same issues related to the S-Pen as do the phones and I have many people asking me to make my app work on their tablets. I cannot do so with the stock ROMs because of the missing interface files.
So I am wondering if there any non-stock ROMs in which the S-Pen is more fully supported. The missing files are located on my phone in /sys/class/sec/sec_epen/ and the two files I need are called epen_hand and epen_rotation. If anyone knows of any ROMs for the S-Pen equipped tablets that provide these interface files, I would appreciate knowing and may be able to direct some folks to using them.
Thanks

I think you should post this in the note section. This is the tab 10.1 section

I think you're in the wrong section..? This is the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 section, we don't have support for S Pen.

Oops! Sorry about that. I know that some Galaxy tablets have the S-Pen. Thought this was one. Please ignore!
Haha, that's perfectly okay. I wish we had support! Capactive styli are so annoying to use, and the digitizer on this is in need of some serious fine tuning.
Hello. I have written an app that helps to improve the accuracy of the S-Pen.Currently, it works only on Note phones and Note 8 tablets because Samsung has compiled some S-Pen device driver interfaces out of the Note 10.1 tablet kernels. It is not clear why they did this. I have asked Samsung but gotten no replies. I have confirmed that parts of the kernel code are removed via a couple conditionals in the open source kernel code (and you can see that some of the interface files found on phones and Note 8 do not exist on the Note 10.1 tablet). It seems that the Note 10.1 tablets can suffer from the same issues related to the S-Pen as do the phones/Note 8 and I have many people asking me to make my app work on their tablets. I cannot do so with the stock kernels because of the missing interface files.
A friendly and very helpful XDA member responded to my posting in the General forum here and has produced a kernel that, with very minor modification to the conditional compilation, seems to provide the interface files my Reset Spen app requires (and appears to do so without and ill side effects). And another XDA user installed it and tried my app confirming that it does seem to work on the Note 10.1 with this kernel. This can all be found in the thread.
So I am hoping for some more wide-spread incorporation of this modification into other kernels for the Note 10.1 so that I can support more users with my app and try to solve at least some of their S-Pen issues. If you can do this and can let me know, I can point my users to your kernels.
Thanks.
Here's the relevant commit in the source for my GT-N80XX kernel series.
