Sony Tablet S Software Update Rolling Out In The US With Goodies From Xperia Tablet S

Sony's Tablet S (or "S1") was released over a year ago to little hubbub. Still, that's not keeping the increasingly-awesome Sony from shooting a new software update out for it with many of the software features of its successor, the Xperia Tablet S. None of the features are especially mind-blowing, but they certainly add functionality:

• Guest Mode
• Redesigned media players
• More "Small" (floating) apps
• Expanded functionality for the remote control app
• New widgets
• Social Feed Reader Cloud has been updated to Socialife
• Oddly, they suggest people also download Watch Now from the Play store

Otherwise, things stay basically the same. There are no Android updates included (still 4.0.3) nor other changes, from what we can see. it's hard to complain when a manufacturer adds some software functionality to an outdated product, though. The update is schedule to roll out today.
