This is a stylish Case-mate Venture case, it can be seen on the amazon website and it costs $35. The good part about it is that it offers full access to the buttons of the tablet, including charging, but if you want to actually use it properly, you need to open it up. See more details right on this page.

A much cheaper case is this real black leather case which also offers support for the Samsung Galaxy Tab, so that you can use it as a mini display for when watching videos or movies. The price is $14 and this is where you can buy it from.

Many Galaxy Tab owners will or would want to use the tablet as a GPS and for that they could need a car mount like shown above. A car mount like that can cost around $46, and one of the places that has it for sale is this one. Of course the Galaxy Tab can also be used to entertain the passengers in the car, if mounted on such a thing.

There are people who don't feel comfortable enough when using the touchscreen and just for them the special stylus has been created. It resembles a regular pen, but it can only work on the screen of a Samsung Galaxy Tab (or other similar devices) and the name comes from the oldest pen in history, used by ancient Romans. The modern stylus costs $15 and one of these shops must have one for you too.

Android Samsung Galaxy S

Mobile Phone 3 On June - 10 - 2011ADD COMMENTS

It is known that all the Samsung smartphones are running under the Android operating system, which is a free OS developed by Google. The Android operating system is based on Linux and it is a free software, that is why more companies released smartphones running under this OS, not only the Samsung company. Because of this the number of Android devices is highest compared to the devices running under other OSs, such as Windows Mobile or iOS.

But why are people buying the Android Samsung Galaxy S? Maybe because they like the Samsung brand, and they want an Android platform designed by this team. Let’s not leave aside the iPhone look alike, but with Java and Flash Player compatibilities. After all, the Android is written under Java.

Android 2.2 For Samsung Galaxy

Mobile Phone 3 On June - 8 - 20111 COMMENT

Android 2.2 was (and still is) a very much expected update for all of the Android smartphones. The Samsung Galaxy S has had this update coming pretty late, compared to the other mobiles running under the Android operating system. However, in a way Samsung Galaxy S had received or was able to update in a easier manner than the others, thanks to the Kies computer program.

It was pretty clear that the clients and users in the United States were left behind. This meant that their Samsung Galaxy devices would not be updated automatically or officially, thus forcing them to do it by themselves.

But why is everybody so excited about this update? Because it brings many features which helps them to better take advantage of the Samsung Galaxy S. We should also learn more about these perks.

Maybe the first one that should be mentioned is the added compatibility with the Flash Player 10.1 version which allows users to better navigate the Internet as well as being able to install and play Flash based games. The Android 2.2 (also known as Froyo) brings an updated keyboard, faster and better response to the rotation of the device.

The rest of the improvements you will have to discover by yourself, because by now you for sure got curious about this version of the operating system. And in case you are not sure about how to install this OS don’t worry because the Kies software is pretty easy to use -just so you get an idea about it, it basically does the same thing as the iTunes only that its interface looks different and it also might seem complicated to use, but in reality it is not.

Mobile Phone 3 On June - 4 - 2011ADD COMMENTS

As many of you already know, Samsung Galaxy S in its original release doesn’t have in build support for the Adobe Flash Player because it runs under the Android Eclair version (2.1). However, since the 2.2 version (also known as Froyo) appeared and with the possibility of updating the Galaxy S to it, the Flash Player is not an issue anymore.

The Adobe Flash Player allows users to better navigate the Internet and to get access to more applications, games included. The version of the Adobe Flash Player which will me available through the update is 10.1, however if you feel that your Samsung Galaxy S is just fine on its current operating system version you don’t need to update. “But how about the Flash Player?” There is no need to panic because you can still get it, but its version will be 9.10.22, which is not a very old version or a bad one to have. This page has more information about this feature and a little guide on what you need to do to get it installed.

* this search result is listing the cheapest tablet for $315, but we are talking about a used one. Next in line is one listed for $450, here. But be careful because the item might be long time sold out.

* the official Samsung website: is listing 6 products, but 3 of them don’t have the price shown. Out of the remaining ones, the cheapest seems to be the one sold with Verizon services, listed at $200. But you get this price with a new contract, or with contract extension, regardless of the plan chosen on this page. The other offers should not be overlooked either, because during the 2 year period for which you sign the contract you might end up paying more, depending on the plan.

Compare The Samsung Galaxy Tab To Ipad

Mobile Phone 3 On May - 30 - 2011ADD COMMENTS

There is no secret anymore that Samsung Galaxy Tab is one of the competitors for Apple iPad. Probably when it comes to the price, there isn’t much competition, but the features are what matter more and when they are just what you need or like, the price, looks and brand name enter the competition. However, before you get there, you need to know more about each of them, so here they are! And we will take a look at Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 3G and the Apple iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G, since there aren’t equal denominations between the 2 devices, especially when both come in more flavors.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 3G is expected to be released any time soon and is supposed to have these dimensions:230.9 x 157.8 x 8.6 mm at 470 grams, an 8.9 inch TFT capacitive touchscreen and with multitouch input. It is said to be compatible with a 32GB microSD, adding to the internal memory, which can be: 16, 32 or 64GB. The 3G, WLAN and GPRS will be some of the connectivity specs. The Samsung team announced they installed a 3.15 main camera, as well as a secondary one. It runs Android 3.0 as OS and seems to have many other features, which many can barely wait to try out.

Apple iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G was released in March 2011 is more heavy: 607 grams, with these measurements:241.2 x 185.7 x 8.8 mm. When it comes to connectivity, iPad has the same options as the Tab, but the camera installed must be a real disappointment: only 0.7MP and a much smaller resolution than the Tab’s. Also there is no secondary camera either.
