today its 379.99

but i called over the phone to place the order and they gave it to me for yesterdays price. I told them it was in my cart(which it was at 299) but when i went to check out it error’d out. then showed 379. the first person i talked to in regular support said it was never at 299!!(BS) she said she would xfer to the order assistance group for silver rewards members…there is where they honored yesterdays price.

Android Open Kang Project is a custom ROM similar to Cyanogen Mod. It’s highly customizable and available for a lot of devices.

It’s the same 1GHz dual-core processor. The 7-inch G2 has a lower screen resolution (1024 x 600 versus 1280 x 800) and a lower resolution front-facing camera. Samsung is going for more of a budget market with the Galaxy 2 tablets.

How can a newer device be inferior? What is the processor in the 2?

This is indeed a very very tempting deal. I wonder how long the deal will last however? I wasnt planning on buying anything until June or July when the google tablet is out hopefully and I can make a better decision.

Just don’t expect anyone in the store to know anything about the device. Or the OS. Or the dock. Or how to use the SD card reader, what the keyboard dock does, or how many GB are in 16 GB.

Yes, I’ve had a few too many run-ins with incompetent BB employees. At least when they completely ignore you they can’t dazzle you with their lack of training.

Ok, I’m really intrigued by this. I’ve got to find BB’s return policy. I want to be able to return either through store or shipping without a fee if I don’t like it (even if there’s not something noticeably wrong with it). I need a tablet to make a teleprompter. I think 7″ is too small. 10″ might be fine, but they’re expensive. This looks like a good form factor.

I just ordered mine. I have been on the fence for many months now. Going between the Motorola XYboard, Acer 100 and Samsung. After I seeing this deal, that quickly ruled out the XYboard. So Samsung Galaxy 8.9 won for many reasons, 1st bundled together, 2nd Screen size was a little bigger and 3rd, the main reason, Display was hands down better then the other two. Called and Samsung confirmed that it is getting ICS OTA. So hopefully it will.

Well it’s about the deal more than the specs for me. After buying a case and dock for another tablet I’m sure you’re looking at $450+ for a 7″ and $500+ for 10″.

I like to do Google Talk video chats with family/friends so that kinda sucks. I’ll have to keep thinking.

Thanks for the updated info.
