This is really cool. The game NOVA by gameloft is an First Person Shooter. What's neat is that you can use the gyro in the device to look around. Check it out!

Controlling an FPS by moving the device would be a very cool thing to try.

The video also features the AVATAR game (based on the motion picture). It actually doesn't look that bad!

This is a case of why you should not rush a product to the market. Turns out the Toshiba tablet has been so disappointing that the Dixons group (PC World, Dixons, Currys) have decided to stop selling the Toshiba tablet. For a company as huge as Toshiba it is quite worrying that they would release such a poor product.

I've never really been impressed by Toshiba's laptop line lacking complete finess. I'm not surprised that their tablet is terrible.

Here's a very nice app that changes the keyboard based on screen orientation!

It looks as if Walt Mossberg has tested the Tab. He likes it! But still prefers the iPad.

Walt Mossberg is a pretty large Apple fan, so it's an impressive account to say the least. His faults are 'jerky scrolling', lesser battery life, and smaller screen. Fair points.

I *knew* that the scrolling would irk most users. Google should really prioritize GPU acceleration across their UI API.

I wonder if the Galaxy Tab will grow on him, like it has for so many...

It looks as if the Galaxy Tab source code has been released.

Wow. It seems that Gizmodo tore into the Tab, going as far as to call it sheepsh*t in a tweet:

FTA:
The overt Apple stance and immature writing is why I stopped reading Gizmodo. Ridiculous.

So far it's been pretty incredible. Even though it's not an AMOLED screen, it LOOKS fantastic, it seems as if the battery lasts an INCREDIBLE length of time and the gaming looks astounding. Angry Birds not only LOOKS far more fluid (videos of it running on the Tab do no justice to actually seeing it in person), it even FEELS far more fluid. Finger flicks taps feel effortless and comfortable. The strangest feeling in the world is using my Tab all day to do things, then whipping out my Motorola Droid to do other things and suddenly being struck with a strange sensation of claustrophobia that I'd not had up until then. The Droid's screen comparatively looks sharper but so, so SO much smaller and I can actually see and feel the lagging difference in speed despite the fact that I've overclocked by Droid up to run nearly the same speed. I think the Hummingbird processor in the Galaxy is definitely benefiting from the increased ARM speeds, increased RAM and cache sizes. It's very night-and-day, and the Droid is still a pretty slick moving little device. Considering that even the Droid was running circles around the N900's UI in terms of fluidity and speed, the Tab just makes everything else feel so slow and clucky.

Overall, I still have been using my Droid more for my podcasts/news but I get the sense that will change once I get a nice stand for the Galaxy--it's the only thing preventing me from pulling it out most of the time out-and-about when I want to watch news or listen to podcasts. Although, I might start doing more audio podcasts anyway, since the Tab fits PERFECTLY into my inner pockets (PERFECTLY!) of my jackets and coats, and I have a bunch of stereo bluetooth headsets. It plays unconverted videos GREAT, too.. especially MKV's, which was a little surprising.

I've been using it now over the weekend and I didn't even know there were reports of lag and hadn't seen any lag whatsoever, myself. Did they fix is before the US release or something? Seems to run without a single hitch on my Tab. I, for the record, used a live animated wallpaper for the whole weekend and a friend of mine that I found out works in a Verizon franchise in a nearby mall was surprised at how incredibly smooth it was running with live wallpaper. As someone that has a rooted and overclocked Droid running Android 2.2.1, I can attest to it running far more 'buttery smooth' that at least that handset device.

Have you tried getting Dolphin (not the HD version, it runs slower)? I immediately removed the built-in browser as the default and Dolphin has always run far better for me.

In my case, it probably would if Verizon allowed me to make calls--which they don't.

Ohhh, please stop it danramos, you're slowly killing me with this torture!

I really need one. I'll have to have another look at the deals on offer as I'm feeling left out!

Dan, THANK YOU. This is great, and I'm very pleased with the account of your experience. I'm now 100% sold! I don't even know what further to ask, other than that you continue to share your experiences!
