LG G-Slate introduction videos show off far more about Honeycomb

T-Mobile has announced a tablet, the LG G-Slate. The device will carry Android 3.0 (Honeycomb), HSPA+, but size, price, and timing weren't mentioned. Because of the vagueness around the tablet, more interesting to some are the videos of the G-Slate, which give us more views of Honeycomb, the first tablet-optimized version of Android.

Honeycomb seems ready to make Android tablets truly iPhone competitors, if not killers. The UI and experience are indeed tablet-optimized, and make for a much better tablet (Sorry, Galaxy Tab).

Take a look at more Honeycomb videos below; the "T-Mobile® G-Slate with Google, by LG" press release is below, as well.
