Galaxy tab 10.1 now baned in eroupe - Galaxy Tab 10.1 General

Hi all.
Just like to display my disgust over these lawsuits between Samsung and apple. Been waiting what seems like forever to get my hands on a galaxy tab 10.1. Pre ordered the 64gb version from curry's in the uk. The release date ment to be this Thursday (18/08/11) But just had a email from them saying your product is now been cancelled due to lawsuits.
Just started this thread to see if anyone else had any other information concerning this matter. As i would like to keep my money and wait till it is back on the market.
thanks
matty

I understand your disappointment but there is no need to make another thread about this.

Hi thanks for your understanding. i dident bother serching before i posted. i guess i was blindsighted from anger.
thanks again.

As of tomorrow, you can get one in the Netherlands.
At it's soonest the ban will start October 13th.

you can get one from Curry,not from online.

i might ask on Thursday in currys if they have any 64gigs, since that was the realise date. if not might scratch a 32gb if they have any left.

XOOM in the UK

I have been checking the carphone warehouse site religiously. Everywhere claims they have pre-order, which sure, the page is there, but now button to preorder.
Anyway, I have just noticed today that the "out of stock" has changed to "in-stock" and the "expected early april" has changed to "for delivery mid-april".
This looks hopeful, but I'm the kind that was born without and never learned patience, I really hope I don't have to wait until mid-april.
Still, promising news of us getting it some time soon.
Just to spark some potential conversation, I fully intend to get the 3G version since I think a Wifi tablet is a waste of time, if you can't access the internet on the go, what's the point?
I'm an Android Developer by profession so I use my Tabs and Phones all hours of the day in all manner of places. I can't wait till the London underground gets 3G, I'll take a trip there just to sit on a circular tube line with my XOOM
Hi,
PcWorld still have it for availability on the 9-4-11 for the wifi version so here is hoping, getting feed up of waiting now

Yikes, that's pretty much the end of April. How did you manage to pre-order? Website has nothing, and I tried the 3 stores in town, not one of them had a clue, half of the staff had never even heard of it.

alias_neo, you can preorder by clicking the ad on the carphone warehouse front page, then 'view deals'.
Now this is where the 'add to basket' didn't show up for me in firefox! It said 'Out of stock - Back order' but there was no means to actually buy. I opened it in IE (yuck) and the 'add to basket' button was there.
I also got the email saying delivery is expected on 19th April

Ahhh! I'v never used IE a day in my life, no wonder I couldn't find the button, bit of a flaw for Firefox users not to be able to buy it.
I got the Verizon version in the States last week works a treat over here (wifi only ofc) i could not wait for release over here...LOL
Lordao
if indeed they are expecting the XOOM in the mid of april, might as well wait for another few weeks till the google IO where rumours that they will be abnnouncing a similar to Nexus line of tablet. a pure google dev device.
i have pre-ordered mine as well, but tempted to cancel it after i heard that google might come out with a dev tablet.

No point, the XOOM is as good as a dev tablet. It's a comes with Google device so no mods, it will get the updates.
Unless something that can prove it's better comes out within a couple of weeks I'll be getting this for my development and general entertainment, I just don't have the patience to keep waiting.

it will get the updates, but most likely from either modders/hackers or officially from motorola. not from google.
look at it as a Motorola Droid, the first experience device for android.
not quite a dev device.
i was hoping it to be something like the the t-mobile G1, or the HTC magic where they make it a official dev device... but again, i might be wrong.
just another point. can't seems to find any information or download link of 99b3b5f5dcde.signed-trygon-HRI66-from-HRI39.00b3b5f5.zip that comes from google.
the file that floats around just seems to be the cached one.

Did the Droid have a locked bootloader?
I just saw this on Engadget: HERE
That the XOOM will finally be launched here in the UK next week. I swear, if they only release the Wifi version next week XOOM is going bye-bye and I'm spending the cash on a box of Cohiba Esplendido. I just don't have this kind of patience.
Any the rumour mongering alongside the negative user reviews is starting to put me off the device. I'm an Android dev in my day job, I want a dev device, not another Galaxy Tab like I'm stuck with now.

How likely is this? I'm interested for the same reason I got my N1, updates from Google directly rather than via a 3rd party. The Xoom is the tablet version of the Droid imho.
I cannot wait next week to cam! BUT! Something is holding me back, just from my experience the first product from manufacture is always suffer from bad design….. I think I will wait Samsung 10.1….. grrr I’m confused

UK Launch Date 1st May

According to techradar the UK launch date is now officially 1st May. They don't say the source other than
Samsung has announced that the Samsung Galaxy S2 will be heading to shops on 1 May, offering Android 2.3 and Samsung's Super AMOLED Plus screen technology.

Where Samsung announced it I dont know, twitter? There isn't even an S2 page on the Samsung UK website that I can find.
But good to know that this phone isn't far away. Cant imagine other country release dates will be too far away.
This ties in with the email Clove sent a member, so preorders wont be sent till the 3rd, but should be available in stores over the May Day bank holiday period.
http://www.techradar.com/news/phone-and-communications/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-s2-uk-release-date-1-may-942119
Edit: Engadget have also confirmed this, including the press release in the article. Much more useful.
http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/11/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-to-be-available-may-1st-in-the-uk/
The post also confirms HSDPA+ usage for the UK at "upto" 21mbps. First phone to offer this in the UK, surprised it isn't making the UK headlines more.
this has already been posted in other threads with a proper link to Engadget and with the source being Samsung UK themselves.
now how do i spend 20 days. times like these inspire me to build a time machine.
Well, I didnt think most people would look in a 30 page thread that was started by trolls. As you were posting I found the engadget link.
But most interesting is 21mbps internet. Will all carriers other than 3 revert back to existing plans of more than 500mb internet? Otherwise lets pray 3 get it on may 1st.
no problemo , a firm official UK release info deserves its own thread. I was just hinting that the info was HERE at xda , there was no need to go read other sites
Congrats UK fellows, you can relax now and just wait out your 20 days
This is the email i got from mobiles.co.uk
Hello Mr Miller,
Thank you for your email,
The handset is due for release the week commencing 25th April.
Should you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us.

But if I order the S2 online from clove for example, how do I will know which screen it has, what's the processor speed or graphic chipset...?

You are referring to my post here.
Samsung UK
We’re really excited to announce that the Galaxy S II, our slimmest and lightest smartphone yet, will be available in shops from 1st May 2011.
From the official Samsung UK facebook page
How much will it be?
This is probably the best time to sell my galaxy S.
Best to set a budget of around £500.
Wonder is Carphone Warehouse will have it available in store on launch day? If they do I'll go instore and pick one up.
I believe they have stated that it will be available after the 3rd May, Samsung will Ship on the 1St, and the 2nd is a holiday.

Why would Samsing 'ship' on a Sunday?
If you ask me, they'll be shipping the week before, ready for the retail release on the Sunday, and, as with most bank holidays, there will be plenty of people out shopping.

On relation to the topic. Yeh the proximity of the release of the Sensation may cause price plans to be reavaluated, especially as they are phones being released around the time of an uprgrade for HTC Hero/Desire users. Think I may take a trip to town just to admire lustfully at the screen and to count down the hours till my contract ends.
As Sensation has been I think said to be priced similarly to the DHD, will the S2 be similar to the S1 when it was launched?
Has anyone been on the phone to the carriers yet specifically Orange? My contract is up at the moment and I am just on a rolling 30 day contract whilst waiting for this. When i phoned them up last week the guy didn't have a notion about the SGS2 so just wanted to check on here before phoning back again.

um, release date is Friday not Thurs ?

I remember specifically on Engadget and now when Google numerous sites say June 16th. But yet now I'm hearing the 17th ? Which is pretty bananas as I took off Thursday working a double Friday.
I've always heard it was the 17th, on Friday.
Here is the press release from samsung.com.
http://www.samsung.com/us/news/newsRead.do?news_seq=19862&page=1&gltype=localnews
"Premium Android Honeycomb Tablet with Ultra-slim, Lightweight Design and Brilliant 10-inch Touchscreen Available Exclusively at Best Buy Union Square Store in New York City Starting June 8; Available Nationwide Starting June 17"
Though maybe you could get lucky and find a retailer that starts selling early?
PS. Maybe online retailers will start shipping on the 16th so that it could arrive at customers homes by the 17th?

No worries, I hadn't heard anything about the 16th until you mentioned it. The sooner the better, depending on price though.
no it's been the 17th. i just hope that samsung doesn't pull another fast one and make it a release for New Jersey only now, and push the "official" release again another week

(With Extreme Sarcasm) What on earth would make you think a company would ever try to do something like that??
I mean gosh that would be like telling everybody the update for your phone you made is coming soon then releasing it six months later.
Or like vague references to Dual Application Processor and then start using the actual brand name a few days before launch.
Or like telling everyone your tablet you make is launching on a specific date only to launch in one store that date and pushing back the full launch one week
Or like telling everyone that folks in your one store launch can only have one specific model after they lined up after hearing about your one store launch two-step move.....
Or like showing an MicroSD card slot on your tablet at every conference and uTube video only to launch without one and require a non existant cellular radio version purchase to *possibly* have a MicroSD card slot.
(And I preordered a Galaxy Tab. I guess Samsung is to me what a abusive white trash husband is to his spouse. Beat me as you may, I will always come back....)

Holy cow what a deal! I'm still trying to convince myself that I would actually use a tablet.

I ordered one around 1am est the day of the sale and still no shipment. I hear this company can take up to 2 weeks to ship out a product. From what i hear the company takes orders first. Then they order the stock for the number of orders they had. It seems like they dont have the product on hand before they sell it which is a really bad practice. You cant really short sell in the retail industry.
If i dont get a shipping notofication by Wens i will be calling them. Ill update this thread if my Tab 10.1 ships.
I ordered one as well and no shipping information. Waiting till end of week before I contact them. Although they did charge my paypal account fast!

Yea that is kinda what pisses me off about this company. You are quick to take my money but you aren't quick to send the product. That to me is just foul. I already sent them an email asking about my purchase. I don't even know if i'm gonna get a cancelation because they are out of stock.
Aight. Let us know if you get a response.
In their defense they have a policy to ship within 6 business days. After today 9/20 its only been 4 business days. Which is why im gonna call on Fri if they dont ship.
On the BBB there arent too many complaints. Woot actually has a lower business rating than dailysteals. And ive yet to have a problem with woot. So idk
I get how slow shipment times can piss someone off. Im spoiled and have amazon prime so im used to recieving things a day after ordering
crossing my fingers
Sadly I didn't read that before i bought it. If i had i would've just bought one on ebay. I'm not too concerned with waiting but i'm more fearful of an email 6 days later saying oops we were out of stock when you ordered. That will piss me off to no end.

Well i bought it because the price was good. The wait isnt bad as long as it ships this week.
However in my excitement i went over to the tab 10.1 forum and i noticed that the 10.1 has a high percentage of users reporting newton rings. So now im a bit upset, with my luck the tab i get will have this problem.
I love my galaxy tab 7 i hope ill love this 10.1
really very cheap
Hi, new member today! I'm in the same boat in regards to patiently waiting for my 10.1 to ship from Daily Steals. When I ordered it, I completely missed the part where it said, "up to 6 business days before it ships". I had a refurb 32gb on order from Fry's but cancelled it when I saw this one.
I've called, emailed and chatted with Daily Steals and I've gotten the same canned response. As I explained to them, I can understand waiting 1-2 weeks for a $10 or $20 item but to go 5 or 6 days with no updates on a $350 tablet is inexcusable.
The other thing that would be helpful, is having a message board on their site like WOOT. This would alleviate a lot of anxiety when waiting.

Update. Live Chat is a complete waste of time with Daily Steals. The only thing they could/would tell me is that it would ship within a day or two.
Beach Camera via eBay had them for $299 this morning. Lasted only about an hour. Sold out fast........

I 100% agree. I would be ok if they were actually going to send me the tab lol. I'm expecting another Touchpad incident where i bought one and like 4 days later they send me a cancelation. Which made it much harder for me to buy one any place else. I've seen the Gtab 10.1 on ebay for 350 plenty of times so the deal wasn't amazing but it was something i didn't have to wait for.... So i believed lol.

This is the response i got from dailysteals so i'm optimistic. I think they would know by now if they sold more than they had stock of. So i can wait now
I pretty much got the same thing. Hopefully there'll be some movement tomorrow.
Hi,
Thank you for contacting us. Please allow 6 business days from purchase date for you order to process. After processing we will then ship your order. Once we receive tracking information we will send you an email. Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.

The 6 day mark is tomorrow for me so lets see what happens. I'm confident that they won't say they sold out before i made my purchase. I'm not confident they won't just say F U all together lol..

WHITE NOTE DELAYED AGAIN - buy from ebay?

It seems that handtec has posted yet another delay about the white galaxy note
Update : 28th November 2011
Samsung distibution has confimed delays on the release of the Samsung Galaxy Note White
The date has been removed and we are awaiting further info
This week we have received further shipments for the blue version
Would there be any issues with buying a white galaxy note from ebay or simplyelectronics as i'm getting bored of waiting now.
Will it have a foriegn firmware on it and suffer from having problems when upgrading the firmware? or is it simply the fact that it may come with a non european charger.
Many Thanks
Mine is from Hong Kong and it works great, no probs updating or anything. Find a reputable ebay dealer and get it.
Can't seem to find one on ebay - only willing to pay max 540 for it
Anyone else waiting on handtec and think that it is getting silly with these delays? - I NEED WHITE NOW!!!!
I'm waiting on Handtec too got this email form them tonight but won't hold my breath until the blog gets updated, I won't pre-order because they can just move the dates again.
Thanks for your email.
We are currently expecting stock of this item to arrive next week, however please do see the website for all updates.
Kind regards.
I'm glad o have already bought the Blue one. Cannot wait for it to cone

Super annoyed with Handtec. From what I hear they have great customer service, and so far I haven't heard any bad things from anyone about handtec. But my experience has been this:
- Show "Due in soon. Taking pre-orders." for a month even though it isn't "Due in soon."
- Post that the shipment is due in on the week of the 21st. (Suspiciously gaining pre-orders directly before black-friday), then don't actually get it in.
- When people ask for updates on the blog post, they have never responded. Wow, thanks a lot.
- When asked on Twitter, they responded that it will be in later.
- Even after all this, they still have "Due in soon. Taking pre-orders." and they haven't updated the blog post, nor tweeted anything publicly to help people.
- Interesting how they will most likely just end up getting it in sometime in December. When the rumored release will be.
So glad they're taking pre-orders. Thanks a lot handtec.

I trying to decide if I want to order the blue one now, wait till at least Dec 15th, or pay the extra 200 bucks for one on eBay...white is nice, but not worth 200 extra bucks!!!
