LG steps into the tablet game with the 3D-recording Optimus Pad.

LG Optimus Pad

Until this year's MWC, tablets came in two basic sizes: iPad-size (around ten inches) and "ultraportable" (around seven inches), a la Samsung Galaxy Tab and the still unreleased BlackBerry PlayBook). LG, however, has opted for something right in the middle, and so the screen on their new LG Optimus Pad is a comfortable 8.9-inch display, which LG reckon is perfectly balanced for watching movies and holding with one hand.

The design of the Optimus Pad is very familiar, with the standard black bezel surrounding the display. Beneath the glossy black shell lurks a dual-core processor and 1GB of RAM.

For those not familiar with what this device has to offer here is a quick recap of its specs, this 8.9inch device offers a 1280×768 display with WXGA resolution, runs on Android 3.0 Honeycomb, has both front and rear facing cameras-with the ability to shoot 3D video, runs super fast due to its 1GHz NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor and packs a whopping 32GB of internal storage.
