Samsung knows great hardware is just one part of the equation. They keep investing in software and services, and in that sense they’re already offering a number of Hubs, such as Social Hub and Gaming Hub. Their latest gig is called Learning Hub and initially it will be available for the Galaxy Tab 8.9 and Galaxy Tab 10.1, though we’re sure other tablets and smartphones will get it soon, as well.

Using the new application, users will be able to access some 6,000 textbooks and video lectures from 30 different content providers, which [content] are catered toward all ages. Furthermore, the Learning Hub will also add some interactivity to enable self-learning with automatic scoring and note correction.

All this will be available free of charge, and demoed during next week’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. We’ll see if we can try it out and get back to you with our thoughts and some hands-on photos. Stay tuned…

Dusan Belic

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
