Samsung Galaxy Tablet

In comparing the tablet options out there, I think the Galaxy is the winner.  Look at the chart:


It's inaccurate for PCWorld to say that it doesn't have phone functionality because of Skype.  The only drawback I see hardware-wise is lower memory, but since it's running Android 2.2 that isn't an issue.

Having Android OS is almost enough on its own to convince me.  But then it adds a smaller size and weight, cameras, 3G service and bluetooth tethering.  Basically I'll not be buying any tablet anytime soon, but once my G1 contract expires...here's hoping for Gingerbread!

Here are Samsung's specs on it:


But I'm still torn because I can only afford so many gadgets, and getting a Google TV box would be great, too...
