Froyo may not be tablet-ready, Galaxy Tab to go the CDMA way

12 September, 2010
Samsung have adopted a different strategy than Apple's - instead of carrier exclusivity, most major US carriers are getting a Galaxy S phone. Reportedly, Samsung will be taking the same approach with...

"Face Time" was a total rip-off of "Video Call".

It's funny how they market it as something new, when phones back in 2003 already had the feature.

The stupid thing is that it's exclusively iphone-to-iphone only, and uses WiFi.
WTH?? O_o
Video call should have 3G. That's what 3G was primarily intended for anyway.


Anyways, back on topic:

No offense to Samsung and their fans, but this is a complete knock-off of Apple's iPad.
Samsung is trying to monopolize the technology industry in all sectors.
If this trend continues, Samsung will be the next Apple.

    sam, 13 Sep 2010sammy released its tablet pc in 2005 that was called q1,it ... moredont compare a innovator with a shameless copier ( apple vs samsung ).

    infact GUI and touchscreens are pioneered by Apple ( with few other giants in this field )..

    infact apple released its first tablet in 1979 itself.

          future ipad, 13 Sep 2010ipad2 will come with an xtrnal storage, vid call, flash sup... moreI agree, the apple marketting philosophy is stupid. Give less so they want more. The funny thing is that if they released an ipad 2 with those features, all the apple idiots would be praising it for being innovative. P.s a secondary camera on a phone is not new apple nor is a 5mp camera. Thats 5 year old tech and is pretty much on most higher end phones. Difference between apple and others is that they got there too late, pretended its new, then didn't even do it right. Video call with Wifi only? Idiots

            ipad2 will come with an xtrnal storage, vid call, flash support, a 3mp camera, an office app n phone functionality. but wait a second! d galaxy tab already has all of those, it's cheaper n no xtra pay for d 3G + it has a pack of apps already burried inside. o 'n it's size? purrrfect! sooo mobile. but still there'r people saying that it's a copy of d ipad! that just doesn't make any sense! but maybe they mean a copy of d future ipad, but that would actually means that d future ipad will b copying d galaxy tab! lol
            back to ur senses people!

                    Anonymous, 12 Sep 2010sammy trying to outmuscle, out-number apple or other phone ... moreYes i agree, just like when they decided to enter the printing and camera segment, they were nothing 5 years ago, now they are a competitive player in both segment with a significant amount of market share.
                    I cant imagine how big samsung would be since they are committing USD$20 billion for new sector including future green energy and healthcare segment, and they are targeting revenue of USD$400 billion by the end of 2020. You can't mess with them, their target in 2000 for 2010 was a revenue of $130 billion and they are surpassing it instead.

                    Look out for the next giant.

                        By the time Android 3.0 comes, Ipad will have 2G with facetime. So, apple is still leading and the killers stories continue. This is exactly like Iphone. I am waiting WP7 and hoping I can appreciate and switch my iphone4.

                            I think companies would really like to see the tablets take off so that we use them more than our phones for entertainment on the go - it costs companies alot to keep churning out disposable phones but they have to ride the wave as the market at stake here is huge.
                            The profits on handsets must be so low when a company like Motorola or sony (or even Nokia!!) can take major profit hits so quickly as has happened in the last couple of years.
                            I think phone makers ide3al world would be tablet friendly with people just having a basic candybar that they keep for about 2 years.
                            It is though a networks worst nightmare though as we watch their overwhelmed little 3G networks crumble away and them just becoming dumb pipes

                                  ip, 12 Sep 2010Nokia and apple are old names. Samsung, LG, Sony Ericss... moreour right, nokia has seriously slipped over the last few years. Hardware and software is very obsolete. Even the ovi store has not done as well as its competitors and noki had a much bigger head start than apple and google. Even the n8 is going to be very obsolete by the time it is finally released.

                                    Nokia and apple are old names.

                                    Samsung, LG, Sony Ericssion and HTC performing really well in mobile technology.

                                    Samsung and LG really well not even mobile, But also Laptop market. I think LG and Samsung producing high quality Laptops. Believe LG and Samsung Laptops are better than Dell or HP. Screen Quality in LG and Samsung is superb.

                                    I bought LG R590 laptop in last week. It’s superb........

                                        lol Samsung just doing the right thing what every company does , having a healthy competition... so what if they replicate another ipad like.

                                        Its better rather than Apple doing royalties and monopolizing the industry which demands the price as they please.

                                        And the good part is that Samsung made their Device very economical which makes most people able to buy not just the higher ups which means its better, most of all its not the brand but the features or performance and price that count most that make us people wanna buy.

                                        No offense to apple fans or die hards ^_^

                                        @ Gosh samsuck..!!!

                                        Try to create something new will ya not just making copycat from other successful products,you imitate nokia SE and now Apple,where's your pride smack-sung.

                                        Based on this comment YES I HATE SAMSUNG..!!!

                                        I hate followers who tried to copy others and daydreaming to be number one,your fate will be like microsoft while almost everyone using it but they have no love or brand loyalty such as Apple or nokia.

                                        what gives you the right to say such if every kind of industry also do that...
