Ever since Samsung released the original Galaxy i7500 they have had a terrible reputation from those who have had to live with their purchases. Samsung have shown that they are in the business of selling hardware, and that has been shown through their repeated lack of support. Groups like the GAOSP became extremely popular amongst Galaxy owners, and the same thing happened with the next generation of Galaxy phones. I'd be shocked if Samsung kept their promise and kept the Galaxy Tab updated once it's not the "hot product" any more. I wouldn't call this a conflict of interest because if anything I would say that Samsung playing such a large part in Android's success only damages peoples perception of Android as a platform, and as an Android fan it saddens me.
