There’s a lot to like about the new Galaxy Tab, Samsung Electronics Co.’s competitor to Apple Inc.’s iPad. So why don’t I like it more?

I mean, it has two cameras, to none on the iPad, so I can use it for video calling. It has a bright color screen, and I’m a known sucker for Samsung screens. It plays nicely with Adobe Systems Inc.’s Flash video format while Apple doesn’t. Though it has fewer apps than the iPad, the difference between 100,000 and 300,000 doesn’t mean much when I use only 100 or so of ‘em.
