Half the size and weight of an iPad, Samsung Galaxy Tab is a tablet device with a 7 inch TFT LCD display that runs Andriod 2.2 (OS - Android 2.2 running Touch Wiz 3.0) will surely make its mark in the IT gadget industry.
The promotional videos reveal fantastic functional features offered by Samsung in this handheld device. Although many of these features i.e. Navigation, e-reading, internet browsing, working with documents etc are not new to users of such handheld devices, however certain features such as seamless Video Conferencing and the very cool Augmented Reality offered in Samsung Galaxy Tab will surely make some noise in the gadget industry.
Ofcourse time will decide whether Samsung will outrun the dominance of Apple as the company believes it will sell 10 million such Android powered tables by this time next year; however whatever will happen, the device is surely an eye catcher. Vodafone plans to distribute the Galaxy Tab in the UK in October.
