10.1 inch Galaxy Note coming

[pyroscott]

A swedish blogger uncovered the 10.1 inch galaxy note promotional materials at the hotel the Samsung reps were staying. There are also giant billboards around Barcelona promoting a 10.1 inch Note. It appears the official announcement will be in the next day or so.

 

I wonder if this giant slab will also function as a phone?

If this will be fully functional as a phone, I am getting it! Can you imagine the size of the dialer on this thing! No more mis-dialed calls!

[shaunm82]

And man that billboard is huge!

I'd like to see someone walking around with a 10 inch tablet to their ear, LMAO.

 

Can you imagine, unlimited data on a 10 inch tablet because it is also a phone? That would be awesome!

LMAO, its almost worth the try it and return it policy! Just so we can see the looks on people's faces~

 

But you do have a good point on the unlimited data, that would be nice!

They would almost have to create a new plan for it if it does have voice. Even though you can easily use more data tethering a phone to your computer, no cell carrier wants tablets with unlimited data. It would burn through data like crazy.

[shaunm82]

That's the truth. Since I've gotten my Prime I've been through almost 3.5 gigs, and I've only had it a week.

 

Most of that is initial setup and extra data required for some games though.

Wow! I hope that's all or mostly WiFi usage...

Yeah, its almost all while on my home or work network. I try to use my cell data as littlevas possible. Regardless of the unlimited state.

[pyroscott]

Oh, is that a WiFi only tab?

[shaunm82]

Yeah, so I gotta rely on open networks, if I ever bring it out. I have the 3G Tab through Sprint that I take out with me.

I was talking to a coworker about it. Pretty much anywhere I go that I would use a tablet vs my phone, has WiFi. Home, work, coffee shop, all have WiFi. I don't see the need to have a monthly plan for a tablet. Now if I had to work in remote areas, then I would see the need for 3G or 4G plan on a tablet, or a tethering plan.

Yeah, there really is no need for a data plan with a Tablet. I have the 2gig plan with Sprint which at the time was the lowest available. I've never gone over a gig. I've been considering going down to the 1gig plan for 19.99$, but know that the second I do it, I'll be running over the limit in no time

Using a 10.1" tablet as a phone, you could be the updated version of this guy...
