LG Electronics has unveiled plans to release an Android tablet early next year, becoming the next company to try to get in to the quickly growing tablet market.
The company, which is also the world's third largest mobile phone vendor, says the tablet will be 8.9-inches and run on the upcoming Android 2.3 Gingerbread.
In addition to the market leader iPad, Dell, Samsung and Toshiba have already launched tablets and HP, RIM and others have promised devices for next year.
Earlier this year, LG abandoned plans to launch an Android 2.2 tablet claiming the OS was not suitable for tablets.
