LG Electronics just issued a press release announcing that pre-sales for the Optimus Pad will begin on March 15 for NTT DOCOMO customers in Japan.
This tablet has been customized for the Japanese market, with applications like BeeTV for mobile video entertainment and the 2Dfacto app for viewing eBooks and comics. Japanese consumers have long been known as early adopters of electronics, and it makes sense to offer the Optimus Pad on NTT DOCOMO right away.
It will be an excellent opportunity to evaluate the demand for the tablet’s 3D camera, as well as the more “normal” hardware that we will be seeing on more tablets this year. The press release offers no insight on pricing or an availability date, and we’re not about to guess any further than expensive, and soon after. Hopefully the T-Mobile G-Slate version won’t be far behind.
