But what about the tablet itself? Maybe it's the real deal. I never understood 7" tablets. The screen size was the weakest part of the previous Galaxy Tab specs. This one, on the other hand, can become an iPad killer (at last).

Screen size is a matter of personal preference and needs. Personally, if there was an Android device about the same size as the RIM PlayBook, I would want it...assuming it had cell capabilities and could replace my phone.

Yes, you are right, it's a matter of personal taste and needs. I, for instance, don't want a tablet to replace my phone; I use mine for reading mags, eBooks, comic books, e-mail, websites and, of course, Android development, which was the actual excuse for getting one myself, hehe. :)

For reading comic books the 10.1" display is just great. You can read at full-screen with no need of zooming in or out, and it weighs less than any trade paperback despite of having tons of issues in storage. :)

(Angry Birds is kinda cool at that size, too).

Is it at all feasible to use this for your phone?
