In a world that has spawned mobile computing there are laptops at the top of the food chain and PDAs/organizers at the bottom. In the middle you find some of the more innovative and sometimes more complex mobile devices such as smartphones and Tablet PCs. While both are more advanced with each coming year of technology, there is something to be said about the usability of these technologies as they relate to what it is we want to get done. Namely, where do these devices fit in, and are they really at a point where they can solve a problem.

Conclusion

The Samsung Q1b, while not an extremely good buy at over $2000 in some places, can be a good buy if your needs are simply that of a computing Tablet device that can serve as a weekend/weeknight warrior and you need the robustness of Windows XP applications. It's probably best served in short stints though, and can come in handy during plane and car trips. I like the weight, and the AVStudio feature of being able to use the multimedia aspects without booting into Windows. I think that with some refinement to the battery drain when Wi-Fi is on, a better joystick and a lower price, Samsung could have a winner in the mainstream marketplace.
