Bubble DS is great for the Android devices.

Ditto. Like everyone else with a DS & Android device, I'd also be really keen to see some decent controller options, particularly for tablets (with a way of browsing by album covers).

I know there are a couple of basic menu/list-based UPnP controllers for Android, but they are all fairly basic, and none have yet been designed to take advantage of the larger screen area on tablets.
The ones I most use at the moment are Squeezebox (by Logitech) and Squeeze Commander (both via SkweezyDS and a Squeezebox) which are better than any of the current UPnP options I've tried.

It would be great to see a Kinsky controller for Android tablets too (or at least BubbleDS / BubbleUPnP being developed to the level of some of the iPad options).

+1 for Bubble DS.
A more-than-decent Android app that you can start using today.

I know and I'm using DS Bubble for Android. My question was different. I get a response? I wonder which tablet to buy.

After years of drooling at high end HiFi I have finally made the jump and purchased a Linn DSi (awaiting delivery)
but not really in the market for an ipad to be lying around just for a remote.seen a good deal on the Archos 101 10" tablet,and like rgrzeswonder whether any chance of Kinsky for android ?

Good purchase mr.Jools. I am waiting for the Samsung 7.7 tab to come out, like the size and screen res, and I'm looking forwards to using Bubble DS on it. But I wouldn't say no to Kinsky as well.
