Hi,

I'm thinking about getting a tablet, and have been looking at the galaxy tab 10.1.

I'm not sure if I should just get the original or wait for the tab 2 10.1 (it doesn't appear to be out in the UK just yet).

Here's my main point. Looking at the specs, it appears (to my layman's eye at least) that the original 10.1 is actually a better tablet as a whole, and that the tab 2 is really about lowering the price point. If that's correct I'm just going to get the original as I've found a cracking deal.

Am I right or am I missing something in the spec?

Cheers

The Tegra 2 in the 10.1 Tab is a negative for me.

The TI OMAP 4430 chip in the Tab 2 is better for me -- video wise. Tegra 2 have problems with video codecs.
