Wi-Fi HTC Flyer Tablet is Best Buy Exclusive
Best Buy will exclusively carry the Wi-Fi version of the HTC Flyer tablet, the companies announced Tuesday at CTIA.

The device will launch this spring and runs Android, although the version has not yet been announced. Pricing was not announced either.

“Over the past few months we’ve seen several new tablets enter the market, and we’re especially excited to partner with HTC to bring the Wi-Fi version of the HTC Flyer to our customers as a national retail launch exclusive,” Scott Anderson, head of merchandising for Best Buy Mobile, said in a statement.

“We have worked hard to bring a large assortment of great tablets to Best Buy and Best Buy Mobile stores, and the HTC Flyer is a great example of that effort.”

Samsung Unveils Two Galaxy Tabs
Samsung Tuesday unveiled a pair of new Galaxy Tab devices, the 8.9 and 10.1, which are billed as the world's thinnest mobile tablets. Both numbers refer to the inches of the devices' screen.

The tablets run Android's Honeycomb operating system. They join the original Galaxy Tab, which was 7 inches.

Pricing and release dates were not announced.

I guess HTC doesn't want me to buy their tablet. Just like Apple didn't want me to use their iPhone.

No pricing announced.

My GAC meter didn't budge then.

Those would be the tablets that Samsung didn't scramble about. Oh by they way, Samsung shaved over 2mm off the thickness of their tablets after the iPad2 was announced.
