LG Electronics Inc., the third-largest mobile-phone maker, will likely delay the unveiling of a tablet computer until next year to focus on offering handsets that can rival Apple Inc.’s iPhone, an LG official said.
LG will probably introduce the product running on Google Inc.’s Android operating system at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January, said the official, who asked not to be identified because the plan hasn’t been announced. While the hardware is ready, LG is still working on the device’s software, the official said. The company said in July it planned to sell its first tablet computer during the fourth quarter.
