A tablet for around €520. ($707.15 USD)”
I fall into the same category as Paine. Often, when leaving home, I’ll carry a 7-inch Galaxy Tab in addition to whatever smartphone I’m using that day. Why? I prefer to use the largest screen possible to maximize my mobile experience. And with a small tablet, it’s not a problem to take phone calls with a wired or wireless headset.
That doesn’t mean I carry a 17-inch laptop everywhere I go: For mobile use, the device size and battery life are two other important points, and I find the 7-inch Android-powered Galaxy Tab to meet those requirements best. Then again, a 5.3-inch slab of Android with voice, web and application capabilities could be even better. For now, I’ll have to rely on Paine’s impressions of the device which may improve after the Galaxy Note gains Android 4.0 sometime next year.
