A quick look at TouchWiz UX:

Looks good and OTA from tomorrow.

The WiFi model has finally appeared on Samsung UK. Still no accessories listed. There is even a user manual:

Still now sign of TouchWiz UX but that little Google Video update also restored browser quick controls and appears to have got rid of any browser lag. Could be that the I/O Tab remains a "pure" Google experience.

Dumb question but what changes will I see with TouchWiz? Checked for update daily but still got no update, but when looking around for changes it looked like I already had them?

If you bought the UK retail version which was launched last week then you already have it. The build is P7510XXKFC.

so this has seriously been pulled from sale?

Who knows! Best ring and ask before you go and buy but I think it will still be on the shelves for a few days.

Settings, about tablet, keep tapping Android Version repeatedly:

Do you guys know why the Galaxy 10.1 was banned?

They've gone after the Motorola Xoom as well.

Have a look from post 35:

The whole thing has got out of hand.

is it worth getting one if the device is gonna be shelved ?

Lol. I doubt very much whether it's going to be shelved.

Is the usb adaptor thing mentioned a few pages back actually available yet? Cannot even find mention of it anywhere.
Want to get one for using a card reader.

It's just made an appearance in the US (You might find one on the bay). We'll have to wait a little longer to get one here.

Looks quite nice:

That does look nice. I bet we won't see the US price.

I just can't decide if to get one..... arrrfgh!

You all happy with yours? What's the first apps and things u did to your?

Three months down the line and I’m still in love with the thing. I can’t see myself using anything much thicker or heavier. It does what I want it to do. I’ve left it in its original unlocked I/O state as I’m quite happy with “pure” Android.

I was going to flash TouchWiz but I have been informed that TW will be coming for the I/O Tabs shortly. Optimsed tablet apps are still fairy thin on the gorund. There is a thread about them.

It does get used every day and that has to be a consideration when make your mind up. You sound very undecided. Over to you.

It appears that anyone still waiting for TW will be waiting a little while longer:

the block is lifted, but could be back when they next sit in the German court on aug 25th

Then there is nothing to stop you from getting one apart from the wrath of she who must be obeyed.

Nice, I like the fact it's white.

Just right for the desk, nice and dinky. The bookcase stand is ok for watching video and travel protection. It's got a connection/charging port and headphone socket. It's a good buy.

Looks like a bug fix is out for TouchWiz. It's 3.22MB and brings the Tab to version P7510UEKME.

Cosimo · 23 Aug 2011 at 15:45

I’m occasionally locking up with a clock screen showing when switching on in the keyboard dock.

Hows everyone finding their tabs ?

The love affair continues. Apart from a minor niggle with the keyboard dock I can’t fault it.

The HP Wireless Keyboard for the Touchpad pairs and works on the 10.1.
