Yes,
M001 has no sim card, so no GPRS and it's quite poor in many other aspects.
I just needed a bigger display to read pdf files without the need to convert them in ebook format as technical documentation - diagrams, programming code etc. - is quite different (unreadable) after the conversion (my phone has a 2.4" only display ...).

I still believe that, as far as the mobile Internet is concerned, the best solution is still the smart phone, not the tablet. When you need Internet in your pocket, you just need a smaller device. The tablet is quite big and still quite limited in many aspects.

Yes, I agree. I have the 4" display Galaxy S, and I really like it; but when I got my hands on the 7" Galaxy Tab, I thought Android 2.2 (which Google says is not designed for tablets), looked "not so good" on a tablet, but is great on my mobile.

So, I decided not to buy the current generation Galaxy Tab running 2.2 and wait for Android 3.0. The main reason is that I am really happy with Android 2.1 (soon to upgrade to 2.2) on my Galaxy S when mobile; and when home, I prefer to just use a laptop/netbook or my big Mac, until I see a "lighter, brighter, better" tablet (my Galaxy S is 113 grams, as I recall, the perfect weight in hands and in the pocket).

Definitely, a smart phone with 4" display is probably the best solution so far.

Yeah, I am happy with 113 grams in my hand.

If a 7" or 9" tablet was 113 grams or similar, that would be really great!

We have that in office for R&D Smilie
It's fun - more like a personal gadget than office use!
Same difference as iphone is better for personal use and blackberry, for office use.
