Samsung said its device, called the Q1, is aimed at business users and the company played up the multiple connectivity options. The Q1 can be hooked up to a LAN, WLAN, Bluetooth or cell phone to get network access. A version of the device for South Korea also includes support for digital multimedia broadcasting services.Commenting on the probably inevitable comparisons that will be made between the ultramobile PC and Tablet PCs, Samsung said these networking options are key.
“We believe the difference is connectivity,� said David Steel, vice president of Samsung’s digital media business, in an interview. Samsung has yet to gauge well the potential market for the devices. “We’re going to have to wait and see. We’re not launching it with the same certainty that we see with a new laptop introduction,� he said.
Samsung plans to put the Q1 on sale in Europe before the end of June. The device will cost around €1,000 (US$1,190), it said.
