Given that the FZ-G1 is conceived as a workhorse, it's little surprise to find a better than average array of full size ports and connectivity options (3G is not included but is offered as an optional extra that nearly all customers go for, according to Panasonic's spokesman).

Standard ports on the tablet include a full size HDMI socket, one USB 3.0 port and a headphone socket, as well as Panasonic's own proprietary dock connector.
