For Samsung, competing against Apple's iPad means more than creating an excellent tablet--it also means creating a high-quality line of accessories. For the Galaxy Tab 10.1, Samsung is making a number of cases, keyboards, docks, and adapters, to entice customers.
In this photo we see the Keyboard dock ($69), which offers a full-size tactile keyboard for users interested in adapting the Galaxy Tab 10.1 for extensive word processing and e-mail.
