Samsung Galaxy Tab pictures

By Greg Mombert Published September 15, 2010

Piggybacking on the success of their Galaxy S line of smartphones, Samsung has released the Galaxy Tab. The device will feature a 7-inch 1,024 by 600-pixel display, and like their Galaxy S phones, the Galaxy Tab will run on Android 2.2. The tablet is expected to compete with Apple’s iPad, and it offers some features the iPad currently lacks, such as Flash support, front and rear facing cameras, and microSD support for additional storage. The Galaxy Tab is powered by a 1 GHz Cortex processor along with 512 MB of RAM. It also features 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, and 3G connectivity.

Samsung has not announced pricing or any potential carrier partners for the device in the U.S. or in other markets.

Screens before age two may come with serious developmental risks, study warns

Using a phone or a tablet to keep your baby occupied is not a good idea.

Screens have become the digital pacifier for many babies. Phones and tablets are used during feeding, bedtime, chores, and moments when parents need a break. A major new study now warns that regular screen use before age two may carry developmental risks.

Researchers from four UK universities say babies and toddlers under two should avoid regular intentional screen time. The review links higher screen exposure in the first two years with sleep problems, language delays, behavioural difficulties, obesity risk, short-sightedness, and later problems with friendships and social interactions.

Apple raised iPad prices, but Amazon still has several models for much less

Apple has raised prices across Macs and iPads as the ongoing memory and storage crunch continues to push up component costs. Several iPad models are now $100 to $200 more expensive than before. This makes the ongoing Amazon Prime Day deals one of the last easy ways to buy an iPad at a more reasonable price before higher official pricing becomes the new normal. We have listed all the ongoing iPad offers below, so check out these deals before the Prime Day sale ends on June 26.
