While Apple iPad sales continue to climb, Motorola has placed the device in a museum of obsolete tablets alongside the Rosetta Stone and the Ten Commandments.

This afternoon the @MotoMobile feed tweeted: "Might want to hold off on that tablet purchase until 2011. Watch this: http://moto.ly/mototablet#ItsOn"

The tweet links to a silent teaser video confirming the launch of a Motorola Android tablet at CES 2011. Few real details are given, but a bee buzzing around Motorola's logo at the end is an obvious reference to Honeycomb (Android 3.0).

In the 3D rendering, which you can watch below, Motorola walks viewers through a roomful of encased tablets, starting with the Egyptian Hieroglyphics tablet, and ending with three devices of our time: 1989's GriDPad ("Launched as inventory tool, but 20 MB hard drive limits inventory to just 12 items"), the Apple iPad ("It's like a giant iPhone, but... it's like a giant iPhone"), and even the Samsung Galaxy Tab ("Android OS, but Android OS... for a phone.")

Finally, the camera zooms in on a clothed tablet with the Motorola logo under it. And that's it. The voiceless video contains even fewer details about the product than yesterday's preview of the Adam tablet from Notion Ink.

For a more life-like preview of the Motorola Honeycomb tablet, check out PCMag's slideshow from the D conference earlier this month, when Google CEO Andy Rubin demoed Honeycomb on an unreleased Motorola tablet. Editor-in-chief Lance Ulanoff described it as "Apple iPad-like."
