CES: T-Mobile and LG announce Honeycomb-powered G-Slate

By | January 5, 2011, 7:46pm PST

Summary: T-Mobile and LG revealed that the G-Slate Android 3.0 tablet will be coming in 2011 with support for HSPA+.

CES 2011

We knew that Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) tablets were coming in 2011 and as we thought there is LOTS of news related to these at CES this week. T-Mobile and LG announced the T-Mobile G-Slate that will be launching this year with support for T-Mobile’s HSPA+ 4G data network. Almost makes me think twice about my recent Galaxy Tab purchase, but the 7 inch form factor is more compelling to me than the 10 inch G-Slate and iPad form factor.

T-Mobile posted several YouTube videos showing HoneyComb, but we have yet to see any press photos or real details on the G-Slate other than the OS and wireless data network support.

Visit the T-Mobile YouTube page for more videos of HoneyComb that is coming to the G-Slate.
