While the Galaxy Tab is heard making big noises around the world with its superior performance and rather steep price tag, the Android tablet was surprisingly missing in its own home turf. However, that’s going to be taken care of as the 7 inch tablet is all set to begin its campaign in South Korea from November 3. Samsung will have SK Telecom as its partner as it launches the Froyo tablet in its home country, though pricing information has still not been made public. Samsung had delayed the launch of the Galaxy Pad in South Korea to allow for inclusion of localized applications in the tablet, which now seems to have been accomplished.

With a keen interest in tech, I make it a point to keep myself updated on the latest developments in technology and gadgets. That includes smartphones or tablet devices but stretches to even AI and self-driven automobiles, the latter being my latest fad. Besides writing, I like watching videos, reading, listening to music, or experimenting with different recipes. The motion picture is another aspect that interests me a lot, and I'll likely make a film sometime in the future.
