Samsung Cooking Up a 7-inch AMOLED Display
Very pretty displays coming next year.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab, unlike its Galaxy S phone little brothers, uses an LCD display instead of the company's wonderful Super AMOLED display.
Of course, making one that's 4-inches is quite a different ordeal than making one that's 7-inches. Production cost reasons kept the AMOLED technology out of the Galaxy Tab, but you can bet that a future model down the road will have it.
A good indication of this is that Samsung will display a 7-inch WXVGA (1200x600) resolution OLED screen at an exhibition in Japan running next week.
Production of this panel will start in June 2011 and Samsung plans to sell this panel in the very same year. Not only that, but Samsung will be selling the panel to other companies, so we could see competing tablets running OLED too.

^A thousand times this.
So close yet so far away.
Did Samsung just not realize that the iPad IS OVERPRICED, so to release something AS MUCH AS it, is OVERPRICED?
It sucks because I want to get really excited about this, but I'm not putting down $500-$600 on a Tablet no matter what.
I just bought an Archos 70, which is almost as good as the Galaxy Tab with the marketplace hack, for $253 shipped...
Overpriced, yet its selling.
bet they will stick with their RETINA shit
Sure they did, however they also realized that consumers are stupid and are paying that much anyway.
Lots of sandy vaginas here on Tom's.
Haters gonna hate.... etc etc...
Now a table with OLED will make it thinner and lighter to the point that they may want to add a few lead weights (the Galaxy S feels like a toy it is so light).
I still feel that my Galaxy S does anything I would want to do with the 7" Galaxy tab. However, throw in the next version of Ubuntu ( the one optimized for touch screen), and I may not be able to resist the temptation. After all, I may be able to come up with uses for it.
Why would you want a touch-screen tv?
Super Amoled, which is what this article is about, do look good under sun.
