Samsung’s Galaxy Tab Packs Adobe Flash

SEOUL — Samsung Electronics Co. last week unveiled the Galaxy Tab, powered by the latest build of Android OS and ready to compete with Apple’s iPad

But the Galaxy Tab offers a slimmer screen (the iPad offers a 9.7-inch screen; Galaxy Tab features a 7-inch screen) and packs the latest version of Adobe Flash — something the iPad doesn't do — which means there are more choices for video found on the web, including adult content.

The 13-ounce tablet will initially debut in Italy, with Vodafone Group PLC, the world's biggest mobile operator, marketing the tablet. The launch will expand to other markets worldwide in October.

While a price hasn't been set, Samsung said the Galaxy Tab would likely retail for between $200 and $300, although the final price would vary depending on different carrier subsidies. Samsung has chosen to let telecoms market the device.

Like the iPad, the Galaxy Tab customizes core applications, such as email and contacts, offers Wi-Fi capabilities and provides a link for reading magazines, books and newspapers.

Here’s a glimpse of the Samsung Galaxy Tab specs:

  • Weight is 13 ounces

  • 1024×600 resolution

  • 1Ghz Cortex A8 processor

  • PowerVR SGX540 3D graphics processor

  • Android Version 2.2

  • 1.3MP front camera, 3MP rear camera

  • 3G HSPA, Bluetooth 3.0, WiFi is N-compatible

  • Video calling, SMS / MMS

  • HD video playback

  • Swype keyboard, Adobe Flash

  • 4000 mAh battery (7 hours of movie playback)
