“When Samsung debuted its Galaxy Tab on Thursday, it made a bold
claim: the device is at least as good as today’s dominant tablet,
Apple’s iPad.

“”Honestly, I don’t see anything [about the Galaxy Tab] that is
weaker than the iPad,” W.P. Wong, head of Samsung Mobile’s product
planning team, said at a press conference here at the IFA
electronics show.

“And in several ways, he said, the Galaxy Tab is stronger. It
permits both picture-taking and video chat with front- and
back-mounted cameras. Its weight of 380 grams (0.8 pounds) is
considerably less than the iPad, which weighs 680 grams (1.5
pounds) without 3G and 730g (1.6 pounds) with it.”
