Would bet that Best Buy will have it.
Staples rep told me they WON'T have that one.

Odd because a staples rep told they would carry them both.
Any ideas when new GT 10.1 will show up in Europe and when 3g version will be out?

The thicker tab will hit Vodafone (spelling?) in the UK. A '4G' (HSPA+) version will come 'this year'.
It's ALL a little iffy.
I believe that in Europe it will be called the 10.1v ... and the thinner (better¿) one will just be the 10.1... the 10.1v is almost in preorder if I am correct
Good Luck

You can pre-order with Vodafone.NL :
http://www.vodafone.nl/shop/categor...-galaxy-tab-10.1v/cat41850002/?icmp=galaxytab
It will be delivered "week 17" (April 25 onwards).

10.1v is indeed coming to European shops in few days. Seems like Vodafone wanted to be "first and exclusive: and they are the only ones that signed deal with Samsung at MWC. This means that they have to get this 10.1 in and prey to God to sell it which to me seems as an impossible task.
It can not compete with iPad 2, it can not compete with Transformer, it can not compete with Iconia a500. + because it is exclusive to Vodafone it will be pricey...
I am waiting for HSPA+ vet of new 10.1 SD card slot is a must with tablet... an why not others? Tavket has to be as light as possible, Super IPS screen is big +, battery is also very good.
I hope they will be fast.... as the things stand at the moment I am not that convinced that S1 (since it will have Tegra 2 inside???) is a good option but once it is introduced in flesh.... who knows.
I would prefer to buy 10.1 instead of being pulled towards S1 and wait even more

Yea, I'm taking what they said with a grain of salt, but the store manager told it wasn't on his list.
Just Xoom, Playbook, Toshiba Tab, and Asus.

Agreed EXCEPT for the HSPA+. Besides it's thin-ness the main draw of the thin tab was it's price. It has to be competitive in price and on a competitive network for when it gets '4G'. So i'd say $500 for an unlocked LTE version would kill all competition.
And maybe a nice dock?
I am only planning on getting a wifi version .. but I really hope that there is something like the ipad2 cover that apple made... it is nice a sleek... I can live with it not turning off the screen but it makes feel more book-like and I think that that would be a great thing to have

Ditto. I doubt there will be an LTE version. I'm buying the wifi version. And if there isn't a smart cover-like thing I'm going to try to make one. And the book like feel is one of the things I love about my nook. I'm just worried that if Samsung does make a smart cover clone, Apple will say that they're copycats.

Have you read the reviews of this cover? It's quite bad. It leaves greasy marks on the screen and doesn't really protect anything.

Again they would have hit a marketing and selling hot spot - and I do not think ppl. would care that they had it all the time but without an "i" bit.
So...
1. do not worry what Apple will say!
2. You can be sure that if GT 10.1 will sell in volume there will be a lot of companies tying to make a buck on accessories for it (Samsung included).

Oh...that´s what EOL means... Not very moodenhancing...Dell should open up the drivers to the devs now...
The should be ashamed of themselves for creating a device with so many screen problems.
Unless they release another 5" device, if/when the time comes, I guess I'll see if I can find a 4.5 or greater screen and move on. I still love my streak, even with the quirks it has.
I'm happy with my Dell Streak 5 running Spidla's custom Simple Streak 1.2 ROM. Though, Gigerbread would be nice. I hope that Dell is working on it, despite the fact that it's the EOL for the Dell Streak 5.
I'm sure this means no future o/s updates (or any other kind of software updates) for our streaks.
Please someone tell me that im dreaming PLZZZZZZZZZ
Dell <----- F****ING BASTARDS
yeah **** news, probably the reason why DJ Steve and everyone else weren't working on any further updates. I guess they got a heads up before this came out.
Poor Streak, I guess I'll start hunting for a new phone as this one is nearly 12 months old, devices are bound to die just outside their warranty period
as long as we're around the streak will never die!
Lol no ones died. Just because dell have discontinued the streak doesn't mean they evaporate! Great phone just not marketed well enough
Sent from my Dell Streak using Tapatalk
i too am sad.. but after talking to the wife about her streak, she wasn't really thrilled with it with the out of the box experience, slow, botchy..etc.
It will be a year or so before we see something new, from what I understand there are good reasons, mostly to develop a strategy for the software and better security.
I am itching for a new 5" with dual core, which wouldn't be an issue to make, but they are really taking their time to probably perfect both hardware and software for a huge release... Just hope it doesn't turn into a WEBOS disaster where no one cares and everyone else has already moved on.... but then again, I may have moved on already by then to at least two other phones.
It is funny how a device has EOL.. yet people still stop me and have never seen it before and want one instantly.
samsung is gonna release a 4.65" phone dunno if dell will try again with a 5" as it didn't go "as expected" for them
atleast it did go like their craptacular lappys..

And do they realize that it comes with the uber-slow StageUI out of the box? you also have to realize that most people don't tweak their devices at all. Both of those being said, most people are pretty positive about the size of my phone, but I always get the "does that even fit in your pocket?", and "why would you want a phone that big"... people like it, but not enough to buy it.
Plus, by design, it had plenty of flaws, they are probably tired of selling a device with such a high return/warranty rate.
gutted i got my phone on a 18 month contract & ive got 7 month left to go
now at.least we know a 5 inch device does not work. Its too big to fit on the pocket but too small for reading books and.pdf like a tablet.

Mine works great. The size of the phone is what makes it a niche device. I carry mine in my pocket and use an ereader almost daily.

streak is perfect. it simply goes in my back pocket and comfortable to use anything like pdf doc.
In spite of a few gripes (let's face it, no phone can suit everyone) the Galaxy Note must be the best phone ever made. It has no major issues and is small enough to be used as a phone and big enough to be used as a Tablet. It is also at the forefront technically and will soon be updated to Ice Cream Sandwich.
No. Its just bigger and it has a pen.
And it will not soon be updated to ICS.
But it is the phone I like most, and I have had a few.

You seem very hung up on this point and are using a lack of official statement to conclude that no update will be forthcoming. Has any manufacturer put a time table on updates. HTC announced a few phones today that will be upgraded to ICS, but put no timetable on the process.
I'm willing to be patient and see. At worst, CM9 should be available, and if someone can extract the s-pen apks then that might be good enough.
I think its the fastest/highest resolution phone available at the moment?
Certainly it has the largest screen, but that does not automatically grant it the "best" title. Some would even consider the size a negative.
Its lack of NFC and a notification LED are among its draw backs. The s-pen is awesome and the fact that its optional makes it only a positive.
In the end it all comes down to preference. That said, it would certainly get my vote for best phone ever.

I did a video review-type thing of the Galaxy Note. It's the first time I've done a video like this - please let me know what you think!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEJCVQA-VeE
Not bad bud, good explanations of the device, the only points I'd like to make is the quality of your video is quite low so moving freely reduces the appearance of a decent looking video. Also I think there is too much music going on in the background.. But these maybe are just personal preference.

Very nice but you quoted the screen res wrong. You said its 1280 x 720 (like Nexus?) but its actually a wider 1280 x 800. This is why it doesn't fit in the hand as easily as the Nexus.
It looked like a tech review on a BBC program. I wish more stuff on youtube was as good as this first attempt. So 4.5 stars. Would be 5 stars if you got the res correct. Well done!

Samsung is much, much, MUCH larger than their mobile division. Saying Samsung won't survive because one of their clients is suing a foreign office of their mobile division is like saying the USA will go bankrupt because IBM Argentina lost money.

I couldn't have said it better myself. Saying Samsung will go broke because of 1 device is a statement of stupidity: they don't know jack about Samsung. They don't know that whatever happens, Samsung is in a win-win position: if Apple takes the hill, Samsung wins, because they provide several key components (like DDR memory) for the iCrap devices. Samsung's solid state and IC business is waaay larger than their mobile division. What we see with Samsung phones is like the tip of the iceberg. They manufacture ICs and components that are used in every single industry: manufacturing, military, health, telecom, etc, etc, etc.
BTW, why are people feeding these trolls?
I don't care what it looks like, just get rid of the f½#$£# physical home button and I'll be happy.
