LG’s Optimus Pad may be breaking the tablet mould and gadget loving hearts by throwing in 3D visuals, but hidden away in the slate’s 3D recording menus is a section called “Tips” which reads more like a series of heath warnings.

While the usual eye-fatigue warnings that accompany most 3D devices, such as not to view much more than 15 minutes worth of 3D content in anaglyph mode at a time are still present, LG specifically state that pregnant women and toddlers should not use the device in 3D at all.

To quote the tablet’s “tip” verbatim:

“Please, prevent children under the age of 5 or pregnant women from watching the 3D contents, immediately, stop using it”.

So, dont expect any 3D birthing guides or 3D Sesame Street apps to hit the Optimus Pad anytime soon.
