The Galaxy Tab. Potential iPad contender?

We have talked quite a bit about the iPad on this blog, so we thought to shout about one of the so called challengers to the Apple iPad: introducing “The Galaxy Tab”.

We like the fact that they show a number of scenes on the video which are missing with the Apple devise (walking down the street, riding a bike etc). They are also pushing the most used smart devise features on the video, these being: Navigation, eReading, Web Browsing, Augmented Reality & Video Conference.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab was launched in Berlin on the 2nd of September, read the press release on the Galaxy Tab mini site:
http://galaxytab.samsungmobile.com/press/pressrelease.html

The smart device is being marketed as the 7 inch tablet which brings "more possibilities on the go". If you have any thoughts, we would love to hear them.

Find out more about it here: http://www.onlinemarketingsummit.com/spring-2010-omvs/

The Online Marketing Virtual Summit is covering all major domains of online marketing, including Social Media, Search Marketing, Web Analytics, Integrated Marketing, Online Advertising & Mobile, Website Strategy & Usability, Email Marketing, and Demand Generation.
All areas that are of interest to the Flashlight team, the event sounds “totally awesome” so we are pleased we can get involved virtually, via listening, learning and hopefully a little bit of engagement too.
