Samsung Q1 – Nearly sold out in Germany

Posted on 02 June 2006 by Chippy



According to a report (German/Deutsch) the Samsung Q1 is nearly sold out in Germany after 24 hours. The UMPC went on Sale in the ‘Saturn’ high-street electronics outlet on the 1st June and “including reservations, the device is nearly sold out” [translation]

Again, like the reports of ’sold out’ Tablet Kiosks, the actual number is unknown. It could be 5000, it could be just 2.

Samsung have already said that they want to sell 300,000 Q1’s worldwide in the first year and regard Germany as a very important market. The target is to sell 40,000 extra ‘notebooks’ in Germany this year.

It sounds like a slice of Samsung PR to me but at least they’re in a fighting mood! If you’re feeling bullish then Samsung, why dont you give us some real stats? How many have you really sold?
