Make no mistake about it, 3D is an industry darling (despite its gimmicky implementation). The feature, incorporated in everything from movies to TVs to video game consoles, is now taking a trip over to the wild, wild west of tablet design. Coupling the tech with Google's latest device agnostic OS -- Ice Cream Sandwich (http://www.engadget.com/2011/12/01/android-4-0-ice-cream-sandwich-review/) -- Chinese manufacturer Aigo (http://www.engadget.com/tag/Aigo/) is prepping to release its own glasses-free 3D Pad (http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/07/brando-3d-tablet/) that utilizes a high-res LCD display similar to Nintendo's 3DS, letting users turn the effect on and off. No pricing or concrete launch plans have been announced outside of a planned February 2012 bow. But after next week's CES (http://www.engadget.com/tag/CES+2012) reveals, the tab's sure to find itself in plentiful company. (http://www.engadget.com/tag/3d+tablet/)
