InformationWeek: LG Joins The Tablet Computing Derby
It appears 2010 will be the year of the tablet, with LG’s just-announced Android-powered model joining an already crowded field that includes Apple (of course), Dell, Samsung and Cisco. The LG product is due out in late 2010.
“Following in the footsteps of Apple, Dell, Samsung and most recently, Cisco, among others, LG Electronics Inc. has joined the fray and announced that it too, plans to build a tablet PC that will be powered by Google’s Android OS. The electronics maker said the unnamed tablet is due out around the end of the year. Pricing was not disclosed.
LG did not specify whether the new tablet will compete with the 10.1-inch Windows 7-based tablet it showed off at Computex 2010, or if is replacing that model, the UX10.”
