Looks like Europeans will soon join Americans in their inability to get the Samsung ATIV Tab, the Korean company’s Windows RT based tablet.
Samsung has said to German media outlets that ATIV Tab will soon stop selling in the country as well as some other European countries due to low interest shown by the retailers. However, as I’m writing this, the device is still available from Amazon Germany though that could easily change in a day or two.
As you probably know, the main difference between Windows RT and “regular” Windows 8 platforms is in the processor architecture the two systems rely on — while the former is made for ARM-based chips, the latter sings along x86 processors. In other words, looks like users don’t dig Microsoft’s tablet-specific OS and would rather go for the “real deal” with all the apps that are (and will be) available for Windows 8.

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.
