As an owner and user of the Samsung Galaxy Tab, I have found it a great and useful piece of technology, especially when I am mobile. It's easier to carry than a laptop, always connected to the internet via my O2 phone account and just overall easier to use to check email, check social media accounts like Facebook and Twitter. Watching You Tube clips of the latest Football games can be done as it has Flash installed unlike the Apple iPad.
The only thing missing is a USB connection so I can plug in a USB Drive. Other than that, I love it!
This year Samsung is releasing the Galaxy Tab with a 10.1" screen and running the new Android OS called Honeycomb which is designed for tablets.
You will see the new Galaxy Tab in the eFA this year as they will be using it in the eStadium and you will see it being used by the interviewer when she talks to the eTeams after each game.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab, An Android Tablet Worth Having
25th February 2011
by Gaj-IT
If used right, your tablet computer is much more than a gadget or a toy. As Samsung say, it can be a life tool.
There’s been a rush of chatter about Android running tablet devices ever since the iPad emerged but as we see the iPad 2 coming closer and closer is there really any truly great tablets on Android?
There’s a couple, the Motorola Xoom and Asus Eee Pad MeMo for instance. And there’s of course a bunch of budget tabs floating around which can’t do much more than browse Facebook.
Thankfully though a piece of hardware has arrived which deserves Google’s OS.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab comes with the latest Android instalment (3.0/Honeycomb) which for some is all the convincing they need.
But if you’re not sure what the Galaxy Tab can do for you then let’s check out some of its best features.
With the Tab you don’t have to leave your life at home. Take it with you with Gmail and Google calendar.
Books, music, videos, cram them all on your tab and enjoy the power of the 1GHZ Dual Core Processor and the dual surround sound speakers.
Download the apps you want from the market and customise the Tab so it works for you.
And of course all the standards are there too. The features that really make your tablet a tool: Wi-Fi, Flash support, Google Maps with navigation, HD recording and playback, that type of thing.
Some people still don’t see the use of a tablet device, maybe you are one of those people? If you are then we’ll see you soon, but if you’ve already seen the light and don’t fancy opting for Apple’s tablet than definitely take a look at what Samsung have on offer.
