Samsung Galaxy Tab

Personally I would say it is not too bad a move - In India where 3G is very expensive - A Wi-Fi only version for 15-18k , will find some buyers - especially if Tab2 is to be priced at 35K range...

but then it come with 2.2 and we cant update the same with android 3.0 so whats the use ...about price the 3g version is available between 22-24 and we are expecting the same to come down to 20k as the product is not much successful and there were lot of rumors about pending inventory ...

The cost 38k when launched was the biggest disappointment. Had they priced nearer to 20-22k at that time (not sure about cost/profits) .... It would done much better... more so since ipad was not launched in India & also dozens of other companies had not announced the launch of their respective tablets as well...

very true .. it was was launched it was priced higher .. if the same was priced rightly it would had great success as till that time ipad was not in picture ...

now indian company HCL also in tablet market ... but they are launching base model with resistive touchscreen to keep the price under control ..

touch screen with resistive touchscreen .. not a good choice ..

thats so cheap .. its about 14-15k .. this will be best buy at this price .. if u want to exp the android ...

 

[mhsabir]

Yeah... but in India its still 25k (Olivepad is 20k though) ... And if you read online, it was dropped to $400 only last week from near $500.. so literally $200 drop in 2 weeks ($100 per week)

this may be the reason ..
