LG Optimus Pad

   Another announcement from LG is a product for the tablets market - the Optimus Pad. As you will read further I do not see it as a very different tablet than what the other produces can offer or will in the near future. It gives me the impression that they just needed to make a tablet just as a response to the others. The most important specifications are:

-- DISPLAY: 8.9 inches display LCD capacitive touch 1280 x 768 pixels screen, 16M colors
-- CPU:  Dual-core 1GHz nVidia Tegra 2 processor.
-- MEMORY:  1GB RAM.
-- STORAGE:  no details so far.
-- CAMERA:  Primary - 5MP dual-lens camera for 3D photo taking, video recording, 2D (up to 1080p, MPEG-4/H.264) and 3D (up to 720p, H.264 SEI).
-- CONNECTIVITY:  no details so far.
-- SENSORS:  no details so far.
-- BATTERY:  no details so far.
-- OS:  Android 3.0 Honeycomb, Adobe Flash 10.1 support.
-- APPLICATIONS:  Google Apps, social networking.

   There are many specifications missing but there is one mentioned which creates some confusion in my head. I wonder why Optimus Pad has only a 2D display but can record video in 3D. Also this screen is clearly larger than the smartphone Optimus 3D has and the 3D experience would have been a lot more fun. But I assume they know best.
