As you are no doubt aware Google has their own smartphones with the Nexus One and Nexus S hansets, but what about a tablet? Well apparently the Google guys intend on pushing out a Google Nexus tablet at some point if the rumour is correct.

According to an article over on the Boy Genius Report, Russian tech site Mobile-review claims that Google has tasked LG to manufacture a Nexus tablet that will apparently run Android 3.0 Honeycomb.

Furthermore apparently the Google Nexus tablet should be ready by “mid-summer or early autumn” but other than that little piece of rumour nothing else is known at this point and that there is always a possibility Google has commissioned the device as an in-house prototype for development purposes.

Apparently according to the article HTC wasn’t interested because they use HTC Sense for their tablets. So if Google was to come up with a Nexus Android 3.0 Honeycomb tablet would people be interested in it or more to the point would a Nexus tablet be able to stand up to other Honeycomb tablets and the Apple iPad 2.

Still as it is, it’s all just rumour at the moment, so we’ll keep out eyes and ears to the ground and if anything develops will pass it along.

So what do you reckon, after Google’s attempt with the Nexus One do you think they should try and enter the tablet space with a Nexus tablet?
