The iPad will become more the only visible tablet on the market. Samsung with its Galaxy Tab and Toshiba with its Folio 100 will soon land in France, after Dell (Streak) and of course French Archos. Operators who want to sell 3 G subscriptions will be able to enter level a market hitherto tightly controlled by Apple. Indeed, the Californian group always reserve the distribution of the iPad its own shops, its specialty resellers and signs as the FNAC or Baker. Negotiations are underway for that Orange, SFR and Bouygues Telecom have the famous slate in store for Christmas. But operators hope to not be trapped in a single constructor.

All three rely therefore on Galaxy Tab. Samsung prepares to spend more than EUR 10 million in television advertising, press and Web for its electronic slate.
