LG announces Windows 8 slider laptop and allinone PC

LG's up next, with its collection ranging from a familiar-looking V325 all-in-one PC, through to a slider PC with tablet skills. The sheer size of LG's H160 hybrid means we're not certain whether it'll be running Windows RT or the more power-intensive complete package.

LG's brief explanation below the press shots also suggests we're only looking at two models for now -- despite the three devices on show here; presumably that tablet is just the laptop transformed, given that the company decided to put that particular family of devices on the back burner.

The hybrid laptop will compete for fans against Sony's similarly-sliding VAIO Duo 11 -- not mention Toshiba's U925t Ultrabook, and while the Korean electronics maker might be ready to unfurl some glossy press shots, we're still waiting to hear some more concrete technical specs. We'll update when we hear more.
