I really didn't want to read this 5 days after I've bought the TAB.
Luckily there's no release date in the article

Hi.I'm from Brasil
Samsung is promising the Galaxy Tab for our market this month. Many news site from here are saying that Brazilian version will have 3 big differences:
- wsvga amoled display
- analogic and digital tv
- and a 1.2 Ghz processor
I'll let you know when It's official...

Default Only AMELOD no other Resolution

There was a update for the press realease:

Update: Samsung's official note on the matter lists a WSVGA resolution (i.e. 1024 x 600 as on the current Tab) and some amateur geometry applied to the image does indeed show the prototype screen above has a smaller ratio than the requisite 2:1 for a 1200 x 600 pixel display.

=> There is no date when this version will be available.

As I pointed out in the other thread on this matter, Samsung sell more than just consumer devices.
They manufacturer components such as display panels and sell them to other companies (the AMOLED panels HTC used to use in the Desire/Droid Incredible being one such example) as well and they have to have some way of showing off new products to potential customers.

That's all this is, Samsung showing off their new 7" S-AMOLED panel.
This is not a new Tab, that's just conjecture on the part of tech 'journalists'.

I almost posted about this earlier this week... if you look on the alibaba site for Galaxy Tabs, almost all of them (mostly from Asia) are listed with super amoled screens... and some of the ebay Tabs are also described as having amoled screens... so either all of these people have it wrong, or Samsung have released some tabs with amoleds...

I'm thinking the latter.

Or not.

Samsung only announced they'd been able to produce 7" S-AMOLED panels a week ago.
The trade-show linked to in the OP was Samsung debuting this new larger S-AMOLED panel.

There's no way they've been building them into Tabs and selling them whilst claiming they're only using LCD panels.
The listings on sites that claim S-AMOLED are wrong, they're either incorrectly based on the original rumoured specs or they're out-right lying.
