If the price for the Galaxy tab is true....USD 900++, might better consider Notion Ink's Adam tablet . 10 inch and awesome features incl P.Qi..which is said to retail around USD 380-390+ for standard screen without P.Qi...or with P.Qi that comes to around 480-490+ ( which is much cheaper ).

If Galaxy Tab for Msian market can come down to level of 300-500...I think it's worth to look at..

For close to 1000 bucks....I doubt i will be interested to shell out so much..

Rather wait for Asus's Tablet early next year or Google's own tablet at the end of the year..

LG is coming out with their own tablet within this year...so, we shall see which one is more competitve..

agreed.....features overall are awesome BUT the price $$$$ is expected to be high..

have to wait till it reaches Malaysia about the availability and the pricing wise.



For now, can just sit back and relax first...hehehe....these last 3 months do expect a few other tablets coming our way too...

Not forgetting so called local brand " CSL ". with their MI700 due in Sept or Oct in Msian market...... tongue.gif

cheers !

It's a great 10 inch tablet. You can find lots of videos at youtube.

Their official sites are : www.notionink.com and www.notionink.in

Not available in Malaysia but you can buy online soon from the Indian's company in 2-3 months' time.

Guys Guys....just read on the price for the Tab from Berlin...

It cost almost USD 1K...siau....damn super expensive..

Read the article here.
http://www.devicemag.com/2010/09/03/samsun...759-in-germany/

Think have to forgo the Galaxy Tab.....and lookout for the following contenders ( cheaper i think ).

1. Adam from Notion Ink. 10 inch - a bit big
2. CSL MI700 ( Msia brand kah ? ) - sure make in Msia ? - 7 inch
3. Google Tablet...not sure either 7 or 10
4. Asus (10 inch) next year...hate it...a bit big..
5. Aigo from China - 7 inch.
6. Huawei S7 - 7 inch
7. MSI - 10 inch...a bit big oso...

Well, these are quite good units...others I have not mentioned as I don't think the specs are impressive..

Unless any others you have in mind, that I missed out ?

Hehehehe.....

Enjoy the reading about the enormous price of the Galaxy Tab..

" siau " ....

confirmation on price - samsung galaxy updated new unit with new VR chip RRP is RM 2699.
most of the specs stays the same cept for a newer VR chip and 1GHz processor as opposed to 1.2 GHz processor.

just received another unit today evening. now i have 3 units with me and all not worth the price.

RM 2699 is based on internal Flash Storage of 16 GB or 8 gb ? With 3G ?

You mentioned not worth the price...you mean the specs, speed and quality is not that good or upto expectation for such price ?

if RM2599 then..
it's the same price with my Acer 4745G with 5470 ATI Mobility switchable which supported Dx11 plus 4GB RAM and 500GB HDD..
Damn pricey r SGT.. Plan to build my own gaming PC then if the price is such this expensive.. Can get Rampage III motherboard and i7 930 processor plus GTX460 Nvidia GC..
If Samsung believe they can compete other tablet with this price then, I hope they think twice before launch it here..  shakehead.gif

actually, all tablet are reserved for anyone that get bored with notebook/netbook, and want extra features integrated together..
Easy to say, they are just like an add-on to any users that have extra funds and really want to be in style playing with the tablet while sitting in KTM, LRT or waiting for bus, library, park, etc..
Don't blame the manufacturers for creating them and the price is not affordable for average person..
They try to fulfilled filthy rich people needs and show that they really will to be in the market..
Samsung, Dell, Apple, Archos are trying so hard now.. And don't be surprised if after this tablet will overshadowed smartphone if the price is equivalent between them..  hmm.gif  hmm.gif

Yeah..Ipad and GT is crazily overpriced.

I'm eyeing Archos new tablet now..7 inch 70 model, running 2.2 at much lower price.

Apple devices is expensive. I figured out that competitors of Apple devices too have an almost similar price. Galaxy S have an almost similar price to the iPhone 4. Now the rumours said the Tab will cost pretty much the same as the iPad. Anyways, I always liked the Galaxy series. Coz my bro own one, the S. Now all I want is that phone too.

Best to wait till next year for more choices.

If you want to get for your Christmas, then you have to look for tablets running at least Froyo 2.2 with Flash...

Bought the Tab on impulse last weekend....no regrets so far...

Admittedly some things arent as smooth as the iPad but even Google has come out saying that its true because Froyo wasnt designed for tablets...

I think they have confirmed that Gingerbread will be available as a free update for the Tab and fix a lotta things smile.gif
*
As you mentioned Froyo was not designed for Tablets, you mean that when you try out the videos, flash and games applications, you feel the lagging in the playing these formats ?

What I heard is the 720p videos are a bit sluggish when you run the movie or movie trailers.

Flash shud be ok, as far as i know.

For games...shud be quite acceptable.


Well, if Gingerbread comes in early next year, I am sure 3.0 will iron out all the sluggishness issues.

Just hope GT's update to 3.0 is good for all applications.


Cheers !
