I was able to check out the new Galaxy tab.You are so right about no other connections. I couldn't tell the different in weight with the ipad 2. I can understand what you mean with the weight with the Xoom. But the unit ran quite nicely. The only problem was the screen would go dark in seconds, but it took a little while for me to find where to change the settings.  But that didn't help. I figured its just how the demo was setup. flipping from one screen to another was just a little different. It was more of a snap to screen then the smooth switching I use to with the pad. It did seem just as fast though. It was running 3.0 which is very nice. With more people using cloud storage the missing ports may not be a problem for them. I beleive they will be selling adapters that work like the ipads.Now I'm no photogarphy expert. so I'm not sure what you use, but have you checked out Eye-fi products? They have new card called Eye-Fi Mobile X2 which will down load straight to a Ipad or Android device.Depending on what type of camera of course.I also checked out the Acer ICONIA A500 which was running 3.0. It was nice to see the same operating system on two different machines. I didn't see any different in performance though I didn't spend as much time on the Acer as I did the Galaxy. I then checked out the HTC Flyer. It was running FroYo 2.3. I didn't like it as well as 3.0. Honeycomb is definetly the way to go. It just feels more like a tablet os. I know it was designed for tablets, but there just something about it when you compare the two. You'll know what I mean when you check it out live.</blockquote>
