LG touts 'surprisingly productive' iPad killer

Novel feature: usefulness
LG says that its upcoming tablet, set for worldwide release before the end of this year, will compete against Apple's iPad by being, well, useful.
"It's going to be surprisingly productive," LG VP for mobile-device marketing Chang Ma toldthe Wall Street Journal. "Our tablet will be better than the iPad."
Ma told the WSJ that his company's tablet will focus not on content consumption, as does the iPad, but instead be a productivity device loaded with apps that support, for example, document writing and video editing.
