Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts if I should just wait for the toshiba to come out instead of buying a samsung 7.7, both have basically the same screens, the toshiba comes with ics (whereas the samsung is still awaiting that) the toshiba has a better processor, etc, but is heavier and larger, anyone else have any thoughts? One advantage to buying an unlocked international samsung tab 7.7 is I could use it as a phone, whereas the toshiba's phone capabilities will be stunted when it comes to the us. Specs for the toshiba excite 7.7 are below.

I was holding off for the toshiba, because the screen, and the powerfull chip, but i got tyred of waiting so i bought the p6800. Only regrets?
no ICS. . .
"whereas the toshiba's phone capabilities will be stunted when it comes to the us"
I didnt really get that
is it only gonna be stunted in the US? or it it gonna be stunted everywhere?
the excite have phone call capabilities or not?
I got this tablet for the screen. Halted before purchase to check out the toshiba excite. The clencher was the tegra3 processor. A developer that made a screencasting app can't get it to work on tegra processors, and the only reason I wanted a tablet to screencast drawings I make on it. I know I could have gone with the new ipad, but ---bleck, I hate apple....
Someone get the tosiba 7.7 and we will have devs working to port ics over here ^^

Has anyone seen it in retail?
I've been scouting local Best Buys, Fry's and Office Depot. Nothing in my local stores yet and I've been looking at the overstock in the cages. Best Buy has it listed but that's all...
I think its out next week. I wanna check it out too.

i just bought the Tab 7.7. But if this thing has phone capabilities too then this means I can use my ATT unlimited data phone sim with it. Will likely make the switch. Waiting to hear back from Toshiba about it.

Don't forget with that

Manufacturer: Samsung
Display: 4 inch, calibrated Super AMOLED+
Processor: 1.2 Ghz Dual-Core
Camera: Doesnt matter, I think the Nexus S's camera is good enough
Round corners, curves. Contour display.
1 GB RAM
16/32 GB ROM
SD CARD SLOT
4G
Build material: Plastic, but a little more grip at the back. Black.
The reason I am going for Samsung again, is because I like their hardware. As you can see the device I want looks like an upgraded Nexus S. I think the design of the Nexus S is fantastic, but a little more grip would do it for the back. Also, Super AMOLED+ got rid of many of the disadvantages Super AMOLED had, like PenTile. Only thing that bothers me is that the colors are a little bit too oversaturated. That is why I like LCD better, for now.
But it would be awesome if there was a way to calibrate the colors, so that you can choose normal (like Motorola Droid), oversaturated (like Galaxy S) or custom. That, with the advantages of LED, and no stupid PenTile, would be an awesome display!
Realistically, the next Nexus would probably be something like this:
Manufacturer: Motorola or HTC
Display: 4-4.3" 960x640 to 1280x720 resolution (either sLCD or sAMOLED)
CPU: OMAP4 or Tegra 2 for Motorola, QSD8672 for HTC (all dual core)
GPU: SGX540 for OMAP4, Adreno 220 for HTC
RAM: 1GB LPDDR-266
Storage: 16/32GB plus microSD
Camera: 8MP with flash
Misc: Dual mic, FFC, 4G, NFC, Wireless b/g/n, 1600mAh battery, ~9mm thick
What would I like to see (while still within the realm of reality)?
Manufacturer: HTC
Display: 4-inch 1280x720 (any sort of OLED, Sony is working on some nice displays)
CPU: Qualcomm MSM8960 (1.5GHz dual core)
GPU: Adreno 300 (200m+ tri/s)
RAM: 1GB LPDDR-400
Storage: 16GB (to keep costs down) plus mircoSD
Camera: 12MP microlense zooming with dual LED flash
Misc: Dual mic, FFC, 4G, NFC, Wireless b/g/n, 1800mAh battery, ~9mm thick
guys, what about a nexus from nokia?
now for me that would be a dream come true. the best combo of hardweare and softweare. it could be a great hit. i would love for something like this ro become a reality.
anybody agree with me on that one, or am i just a lone dreamer?...
on the other topic it was already said to be a joke only when he mentioned
but Nokia is indeed looking to partner up with other OS markers
but there are no solid confirmation if they are going one way or another
they basically opened the doors and are inviting prospective OS partners for their phones
don't be surprised to see a Nokia running Apple's iOS
but chances seems to be Nokia seems to be favoring Microsoft
however Android has the market dominance in the long run, it'll not be smart for Nokia to not choose Android and partner with Google
if they do, we'll most likely see "Nexus N"
I just hope the Nexus 2 will be made by a company with better outer casing

I guess so but there really is nothing bad with the shell of the NS. It only feels cheap because its glossy plastic. I've dropped my phone quite a few times and its never even chipped. I have no scratches on the screen or the back. I'm quite happy with the SNS and my only hope for the next Nexus is just that it be better than anything else on the market

*ahem* in light of recent news:
http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2011/02/11/hitachi-to-offer-improved-smartphone-lcd-display/
it seems like, soon, we'd have the same number of pixels on our phone display as a 55" full HD TV
You mean "Nexus 3", as Nexus 2 = Nexus S

They are launching it at 9am Apr 18th.
I'm excited. Hopefully it's not more than US price.
Great Let the deving commence in Singapore
If it comes with 3G, I am getting it immediately!
aaahhhhhh i envy you singapoerans... send some down to indonesia please
Preorder start tomorrow at 9am. They haven't announced the prize yet, but it seems that there will be incentives for early adopters.
Got mine for SGD$699 with free keyboard dock. Not bad after all. But it seems like there are quite a few versions of this tablet floating around.
The Singapore version is TF101-16
CPU: Nvidia Tegra 2 Dual-Core ARM Cortex A9 (1.0GHz)
OS: Andriod Honeycomb 3.0
Display: 10.1” WXGA (1280x800) IPS with capacitive touch
Graphics: ULP GeForce GPU
Memory & Storage: 1GB LPDDR2 (667MHz) + 16GB eMMC Flash + Asus web storage
Connectivity: 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi & Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR
Camera: 1.2 Mega pixels (Front); 5 Mega Pixels Auto-Focus (Back)
Pad Interface: 1x Mini HDMI, 1x MicroSD Expansion Slot, 1x Audio jack, 1x Docking/Charging Connector Port
Docking Interface: 2x USB, 1x SD Card Reader, 1x Charging Connector Port
Audio: Hi-Definition Audio CODEC, Stereo speaker, Microphone
Video: 1080p HD Video playback
Battery life Up to 16 hours* (With docking station)
Features: Built-in GPS
Warranty: 1 year international warranty (Eee Pad)
6-months international warranty (Docking station)
I wonder what's the difference between models. Hope it's not hindering custom ROMs
thats not a bad price at all roughly 400 tablet and 150 USD for laptop dock. there was no option to buy just the 16gb? what were the incentives?
The incentive is that the combo is supposed to cost SGD$898 when it's launched
Got it at SGD$699 as well..actually all in all it's still slightly cheaper to pre-order here.
SGD$699 vs
US$399 + US$150 = US$550 = SGD$685 + 7% GST = SGD$733
I just wonder the warranty in US is the local warranty or international warranty? Anyone could help to answer this?

Various sites are selling this tablet although I found a great deal from spemall as they have the english version and I found positive reviews of their site from various forums.The tablet is going for $179.99 on their site atm but I found a discount code so it is $15 off and becomes $164.99.
The discount code is: Flame15USDOFF
Discount will only work before the end of 27th March I believe.

It was a statement of sarcasm. Hence the word tad .
But 16 megapixel camera will obviously use different drivers.
They probably use note2 gallery though.
The remote viewfinder using the SGS3 is sheer innovation.
