Yikes. We just finished getting our fingerprints all over LG’s Optimus Pad (aka the G-Slate), and now we’re thinking we should have been wearing white gloves while doing so. The tablet is coming in March to the US, but we didn’t know a price. Now we do — in Germany, at least, and get ready to wince: €999. That’s about $1,350 if you do a straight conversion, out-classing even the Xoom‘s eye-wateringly high $1,199 pre-order price, which we’re still holding out hope is a misprint. Maybe the golden goo in Honeycomb really is gold.
Update: Roland wrote in to remind us that German prices include a 19 percent VAT, which would drop this price down to a mere $1,075 if you’re into the conversion game. Well within pocket change territory.
