LG Optimus Pad listed on Amazon.de for a slightly less crazy €899

Shortly after our first hands-on encounter with LG’s Optimus Pad , we came across a press release from the company announcing the price for its 8.9-inch Android Honeycomb tablet in Germany: €999 ($1,380). We rubbed our eyes and pinched our cheeks, but we weren’t dreaming — that’s LG’s recommended retail price, alright. Now Amazon has listed its pre-order page for the same slinky slate, though it’s sagely opted to chop €100 off and offer it up at €899. We still don’t know who exactly will be jumping at this opportunity, even with 32GB of onboard storage, a dual-core CPU and a dual-camera array on the back allowing for 3D video recording, when equally or more compelling products are about to hit the market at lower price points . At least shipping’s free. LG Optimus Pad listed on Amazon.de for a slightly less crazy €899 originally appeared on Engadget on Thu, 03 Mar 2011 05:40:00 EDT. Please see our terms for use of feeds .
