I think pre-announcing tablets at this point in time is a clever thing to do, it makes sure that nearly every article talking about iPads or tablets in general will mention that comparable products from Samsung are coming very soon.

- georgemcbay 16y agoI disagree. I think pre-announcements have their place, but are only really effective if you're already the dominant player (eg. Microsoft in OSes, especially in 199x and 200x, or Apple in the tablet/PMP space) and you're doing it to disrupt releases of upstarts. If you're going up against the 800 lbs gorilla with a product that is still basically unproven, I think preannouncing months in advance does more harm than good. I'm a big Android booster and self-described "Apple hater" but even I'm growing sick of how all the great new Android tablets have been JUST AROUND THE CORNER for about a year now.
- CountSessine 16y agoUmmm...who cares? There's always something coming out very soon.
- ugh 16y agoThere aren’t that many high profile Android tablets.
