An executive at Android tablet maker Lenovo claims that Samsung sold only 20,000 of the 1m tablets that it shipped last year as it tried to "buy share" from market leader Apple.
The dramatically low figure suggests that Samsung's efforts with its first 7-inch tablet, launched exactly a year ago, fell far short of targets.

It has been understood for a long time that the numbers that Samsung quotes are sell-in to the channel, not sell-through (this is quite normal). That leaves the rest of us guessing as to how many of the damn things consumers are actually buying. One has to wait a few quarters to see if Samsung's numbers suddenly fall off a cliff - there's only a certain number of units they can stuff into the channel so if consumers aren't buying Samsung's numbers will drop.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 – you couldn't ask for a more directly competing product to Apple's iPads – sells like hotcakes in Europe as we speak despite Apple's concerted efforts to throw a spanner in the works by subverting the law with manipulated evidence (showing their true colors).
I shudder to think what's happening in Asia right now while Apple makes us, and themselves, look where the action is not...

*10" is too small to comfortably view and work on.
**Observe how you and others use your smartphone: 95% of the time you use it as a mini-tablet. Not as a phone. So in that case the tablet aspects of it had better be good, right? Regular 4" smartphones (or less) really suck at that of course. Too puny. So how does twice the screen real estate, 4 times the battery life, and a dual core 1.4Ghz CPU (like in the MBA) grab you for a mobile mini tablet? While it still is an excellent standard smartphone.
With RDP software installed to remotely run my large screen iMacs with big HDs at home and in the office when I'm en-route I can't think of anything else I would need.
