this category. Samsung Electronics is offering a Galaxy of features to make up for its somewhat late entry. Apple, of course, is sitting pretty with consumers drooling over its Pad in hordes. <br /><br /> Tablets, or mobile computing devices, are the newest, and perhaps, the toughest battleground in the consumer devices market. And India is one of the key battlefronts. Samsung Electronic's muchawaited entry into the tablet market with the launch of the Galaxy Tab in India (on sale from November 10) points to two distinct trends. That tablets are now a big business: they are the fastest-growing of all computing devices globally. And the giants of the computing, telecom and consumer electronics space will rough it out for a share of this business. <br /><br /> Gartner estimates that 19.5 million tablets will be sold worldwide by this year-end and the number could jump 2.5 times to as high as 55 million by the end of next year. Another research firm, In-Stat, estimates that between 2010 and 2014, tablets will grow at a compounded annual rate of 124%  the fastest among the four categories of desktops, netbooks, notebooks and tablets. The Asia Pacific region will grow the fastest in these four years, it adds. <br /><br /> What's behind all this trailblazing success of the tablet? For one, it's the most converged of all entertainment and computing devices, which makes it appealing to all  from a pre-teen to a CEO. Secondly, the tablet was embraced and reinvented by Apple in the form of the iPad. The success of the iPad has spawned more than a dozen variants of tablets, many of them already available in India for 7,000 onwards. The big three, however, are the iPad, the Galaxy and the Streak. <br /><br /> The most do-it-all of all tablets is the Galaxy, though it is also the most expensive at 38,000. The Streak is priced at 34,990 while models of the iPad range from 23,000 to 38,000 (in the overseas market). Then there are at least half-a-dozen more models with varied pricing and features. Most of these are available in the Indian market. <br /><br /> Globally, the iPad dominates the market with an estimated 90% market share, its most enduring draw being the 3,00,000-application rich exclusive App Store. Having tested both the iPad and the Galaxy Tab, we can say that the Galaxy is most likely to emerge as the first serious competitor to the iPad. Unlike the iPad, the Galaxy also doubles up as a 3G phone. It also has dual cameras, pre-loaded all-India maps from MapmyIndia and amazing media playback capabilities. <br /><br /> So what will decide the winner? There could be more than one winner, because this won't be a market where the winner takes all. That's why these companies are entering with different unique selling points  the iPad has a larger screen and the power of the App Store, the Streak is closer to a smart phone and the Galaxy is attempting to appeal to both mindsets with the most feature-packed hardware and partcustomised Android operating system. Samsung expects to sell close to a million units in India by the end of 2011. Apple hasn t launched the iPad in India officially, although that has not prevented people from buying it from sources as diverse as grey market to online sellers or simply from overseas. It is likely to be officially launched in India no later than March 2011. <br /><br /> Some experts feel the Galaxy's pricing is "bad" against the iPad, but they expect tablets, as a concept, to be all the rage regardless. <strong>High price seen as no bar </strong> <br /><br /> SAYSAtul Chitnis, a Bangalore-based consulting technologist: "Tablets will be successful everywhere in the world, including in India& Even the much-quoted 'high-cost factor' is no barrier in India. In fact, it has never been. It is availability that matters, not price. If it is available here, people will buy it." Gurgaonbased technology consultant Kishore Bhargava says tablets don't replace notebooks or netbooks, but they complement them. "It (the tablet) is a good second or, in many cases, a good third device," he says. Despite the relative high price, they will carve out a niche for themselves, he believes. "The differentiator will be the quality of applications and the user-interface. If they mimic what a notebook or a phone do, then it will not succeed. However, innovative applications will certainly entice users and this trend has already begun." After all, nobody can stop an appeals-to-all-ages product whose time has come. <br /><br /> <strong>(Look out for a detailed comparison between the iPad, the Galaxy Tab, the Streak and the OlivePad in the Economic Times on November 10, 2010.)</strong> <br /><br /> <img src="images/tablet.bmp" style="text-align:center;" align="middle"/> <br /><br /> <strong>HUGE POTENTIAL: </strong> <br /><br /> Industry estimates suggest that about 19.5 million tablets will be sold worldwide this year </p> </div> </div> <!--<p><strong>Source : evertiq.com</strong></p>--> </div> </div> </div> </div></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3" width="10"><img alt="" src="http://www.ibef.org/images/1px.gif" height="5" width="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> </table></td> <td valign="top"><table width="100%" height="372" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td><a href="NewsL.html"><img src="images/news.gif" width="197" height="29" border="0" /></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="132" valign="top"><table width="91%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td height="130"><iframe src="newsview.htm" width="200" height="105" scrolling="no" frameborder="0"></iframe></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" ><div align="center"><a href="alpha.html"><img src="images/alpha.gif" width="196" height="150" border="0" /></a></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="middle"> <div align="center"> <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0" width="197" height="68"> <param name="movie" value="images/chip.swf" /> <param name="quality" value="high" /> <embed src="images/chip.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="197" height="68"></embed> </object> </div></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="28" background="images/btm.gif"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="14%">&nbsp;</td> <td width="58%" class="content"><div align="center">Copyright &copy; ChipTest, All Rights Reserved |<a href="javascript:winopen2('Disclaimer.html',390)" class="content"> Disclaimer</a></div></td> <td width="16%" valign="middle" class="content">Designed &amp; Developed by </td> <td width="12%" valign="middle" class="content"><a href="http://www.cherrytec.com" target="_blank"><img src="images/logocherry.gif" alt="Cherry" border="0" style="padding-top:3px;" longdesc="http://www.cherrytec.com"/></a></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> </table> <map name="Map" id="Map"><area shape="rect" coords="44,18,73,52" href="sitemap.html" /> <area shape="rect" coords="7,21,33,54" href="index.html" /> <area shape="rect" coords="85,17,116,55" href="contact.html" /> <area shape="rect" coords="860,6,890,32" href="index.html" alt="Home" /> </map></body> </html>
