I understand from a source that the tablet was planned to be launched here last week. Samsung execs from neighboring countries were scheduling trips here for it's launch. For some reason that launch was derailed and Singtel had caused it to be delayed. Anyway, We can expect it to be sold exclusively by Singtel come the middle of next month.

My guess to the delay is Singtel might need more time to preload customised applications, no proper big launch venues, or the fact that there was not a single Singtel advert on the tablet except that silly singtel TV ad where Nicholas Lee was using it to spy on his daughter.

Samsung waited for long to launch the tablet until Windows snatched this window to launch their new Windows 7. Anyway the tablet is already out in Germany and it will be out in UK come 1st November. If I were not for waiting for the contract subsidy, I would have ordered it online already.

Another red umbrella exclusive! SHUCKS!

I know how you feel. While I was seriously dreaming of owning this tablet since September..after Singtel caused its delay for a month, I now hope this tablet sale suffers big time as there will soon be other tablets by then too.
Hopefully Samsung (and all other phone manufactures) learn never to make*exclusive* deals with the arrogant, red umbrella again.
