God morning everyone. I am picking up one of these puppies tonight. Will give you guys some feedback when I have played with my new toy.

The 8.9' is supposed to be the ultimate blend of viewing size and portability. At least according to the reviews I have read.

Well been messing around on it for a couple of hours now and I must say the form factor is terrific. Not too big to read books and not too small to watch movies.

I have noticed a bit of lag using touch wiz so I installed adw launcher and the lag vanished. I also like the fact that using adw isn't radically different from my cell phone.

Please guys ask me any questions you may have.

got mine second hand for R4000 with the samsung cover and usb kit.

Too many guys dont realize that tablets have god awful resale value and price them too high.

What is the big difference between the 10.1 and the 8.9 ? Just screen ?

Pretty much, but the difference is the 8.9' fits quite nicely and has a higher pixel density than the 10.1'

I'm looking to get me one of these babies. Where can I get it for the best price? Also, I'm not sure if I should go for the 3G or WiFi only. From the moment I first year of the 8.9" I knew it was the perfect form factor.

BTW: I also have a Galaxy Ace which I'm trying to sell if anybody's interested.
