yes, rumor has it, this one actually has 3 Front Facing cameras, each with different modes like the predator.

heres a pic to prove it
no but in all seriousness, I'm really considering this device. just hope the price is below 500$

Knowing Samsung, I'd expect it to undercut the iPad.
Although I have no use for something like this, I can see the great potential for it as a seller because it fills a great gap in between large tablets and smartphones. The 5-inch Streak is too tiny to be a serious tablet and too large as a phone. 7-inches might do the trick.

oooo buy me one too!
Thanks!

Can hold it with one hand? That's a plus. Although I don't know if it'll be comfortable, but at least you can do it.

This is definitely a plus. I believe the market is out there for a device this size.

The SGS Pad is something I might consider buying as an e-eader or portable video player. Otherwise it's not really gonna do anything my Vibrant doesn't. It just has a larger screen.

You guys know it's not called a "pad" right??
it is "TAB"
Let's not let this beauty have all the female jokes the iPad had

Can't wait for this either!
Hope it has an SAMOLED screen and supports TMobile 3g

Too small
I think the iPad's size is right. This is too small. But the iPad is too heavy. It needs to be as light as the Nook and as big as the iPad - and I think the Super Amoled Screen does reduce one layer of glass, so it might help. I wonder how much of the iPad's weight is the battery's weight.

Is this going to be carrier based or is it going to allow any average joe to walk in and just buy one? WiFi or cellar based? I don't need another cell phone, but at the same time I really don't need an over sized Vibrant and that is why its not going to sell like hot cakes. Well then again tons of people bought the iPad.

Agreed. There isn't much that I can do with 7 inches that I can't do with 4. I'll be waiting on a tablet with 10 inches of screen real estate or better.

This stylus is well rated on Amazon. Just ordered one, should do great on our tabs. Tried one by Griffin today and even with the thick screen protector it worked awesomely.

From what I read on amazon this one is heavily counterfeited and those suck. If its not from targus it probably sucks. I'll have to see if this one is real though lol

For $5 bucks I bought one. I'll report back once I receive it. Thx

I'm wasn't a fan of the rubber tips, but I have made a few foam ones and recently tried a rubber one and it really works the best. I hope we don't get a crappy counterfeit one lol

I take notes at meetings and at school. So I'm gonna give this a try. We really lack a good note taking app though. Tab notes is the best so far and its not that great compared to one note.

I'd really love to use a stylus for sketching - could care less for note taking. But sketching would be great - only problem is, the tab isn't all that responsive - I mean, don't get me wrong - it's great. It's just wasn't built with that kind of functionality in mind... Which is unfortunate.
Still though, I'll get one eventually.

You know, I thought the same thing. I would draw something and the line would follow after. Using tabnotes it doesn't do that. I was looking for a mod to increase screen polling or responsiveness but nothing.

I ordered one, still no shipping info and no response to my email, oh well glad I paid with PayPal, if I don't hear anything in a few days, I will file a complaint with PayPal.

Mine shipped a day or two ago. These daily deal sites are slow.

The the BEST I've used.
DAGi P504. Don't have a link just Google. Transparent tip is mounted on a spring so no matter what angle your holding it, it will make contact. Very precise. I like it a lot better than the old style which you hat to hold at only one angle & much better than the eraser type.

Pointed tip Stylus?
Does anyone know of a stylus with a pointed rubber tip like the HTC Flyer one only usable on the A500? I would like one for some of the drawing programs and just can't get used to the rounded oversize points on most generic stylus.
Thanks

That's a nice stylus. I wonder if it does.

http://www.ipaddoodler.com/article/big-ipad-stylus-review
I know that says iPad but it's a great quick run down of a few stylus (styli?). I am really considering the Ostylus or the Dagi one, but they have a new model the 506 with a slightly different design.

A Nuukey bluetooth keyboard for the iPhone; I had seen one of these before online and thought if it could be some way retrofitted onto another phone. It was a
pretty lucky find in that I was able to inspect it hands on. I thought since I had blown all my money anyways, so why not try it. Here is what I have so far:

It's the one thing that I'm missing from my old HTC 8125 and 8525.
Ugh playing roms on those things was infinitely more fun when I had buttons to press.
Edit: Also, if anyone stumbles upon a keyboard that connects via usb rather than over Bluetooth, please share.

this is fantastic. now what you should do is pick up an extra battery cover and outfit the sliding joint to it. i wonder how hard that would be. i have been trying to figure out this exact mod for months

Youtube vid shows it on, slight modification necessary however. Definitely think I might do this once I have some money.

I think a USB keyboard in this form factor would be fantastic, less battery consumer, and it shouldn't be so hard with the USB-host support, I'm right?
Why we don't suggest it to Nuu?

I kind of like this idea, plus then you could use it in places where bluetooth might be prohibited. Also makes your phone less open having bluetooth off.

Well it's been two days and there is some bad news after sliding it back and forth the springs gave out and there is too much pressure being put on the slide plate causing it to bend. I'm going to have to modify how its mounted before releasing instructions; I dont want anyone wasting their time or money.

This models have been modeled in C4D. I hope you like them!

Honestly, I don't want to be too harsh or anything but.. it just look like a cheap chinese Mp3 player of any kind I mean..
And by the way why physical + software home buttons wtf ?
But I thanked you anyway !

It shows the level of expectation for the phone. Such hype was reserved only for Apple products. Samsung must have done something right.
Well done, but I would have loved less bezel and the home button looks too much iPhone-ish.

Well, C4D isn't the best program to design in. I've moved on 3DS Max. About the home buttons: the homescreen picture is just an ICS picture i've downloaded on the internet.

Possibly the Best Camera App for Android is now testing on Nexus 5

This has been released for all other nexus devices, as well as the other popular phones. It's in testing for the N5 now! I am stoked!
http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57611881-94/it-wasnt-easy-but-camera-awesome-for-android-is-here/

It's not publically available for Nexus 5 yet though, so this thread feels premature. Cheers for the heads up, anyway.

Agreed, you got me excited with the title, but now I am mad because you jumped the gun. Should have added COMING SOON.

That app is free on iOS. Bummer, but understandable as to why they made it a paid app.

Still waiting on Focal myself

Haven't gotten an answer on this in the other places I've asked. There are two different UIs shown in the pics for the app, one looks like iOS and the other looks like it may be a tablet UI. Can anyone confirm if the latter is a tablet UI. If it becomes the phone UI too it looks pretty nice.

Yeah, I emailed them about it and that asked that I send them some pictures which I did. Hopefully they fix it.

is the Camera Awesome app really the best out there? The features look good but the reviews are terrible and not very many downloads...
anyone have real experience with it before I commit $3?

The interface on this app looks so cluttered. I wish someone would just blatantly copy the iOS 7 camera app instead of trying to make an app that has literally every feature but 30 on screen buttons. Just simplicity with necessary functionality. It shouldn't really be that hard.
