THE DUBLIN, SOUTHERN IRELAND, DISTRIBUTER CUTS OUT THE MIDDLE MAN WHICH MEANS IT IS QUITE CHEAP TO BUY. WELL, CHEAP AT SOUTHERN IRISH PRICES. THERE IS NO PRICE CONTROL HERE, I AM AFRAID. BUT DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BLAME THE BLAW CLEE GOVERNMENT. BLAME THE FUCKING BASTARDS WHO ELECTED THEM.

Tablet, or refrigerator? Looks slow... Bulky.... I'm not impressed but I belive its very cheap, so its ok. Pretty tablet for the money.

@jt4life67 ok, I understand... by the other side you may consider the ViewPad 7 which meet better your specific requirements: comes with the same 7" width screen that Galaxy Tab, possibly without the both two front and rear webcams (only one 3MP webcam), with less power CPU (600mhz against 1Ghz in Galaxy Tab) but for almost 1/2 the price of Galaxy Tab: while Galaxy Tab is around 699 euros (Amazon: 799 euros) ViewPad 7 is only 425 euros. Don't missunderstand me: I'm not a ViewSonic maid :).

@Brainsformed The tab is just more portable this thing is huge and so is the ipad portability is key other wise i might as well just carry a laptop.

@jt4life67 uhhhmmm... I looked all the products in the market and as I feel the cuestion, Samsung Tab is expensive shit: Buying it you get an iPhone with most expensive price and only one OS without the capabilities of Windows 7. Nor the Folio 100 nor the iPad nor the PlayBook, nor the Galaxy Tab offers the same value/price ratio than this product as I see: You can use it for the professional use on the lap, and for planning and communication by the other hand for the almost same price.
