Samsung made the only decent iPad competitor in 2010, and now it's set its sight on the MacBook Air with the 9 Series ultraportable. It's practically the same size and weight — barely a gram and a few hundredths of an inch are shaved off — but includes a more powerful i5 CPU, USB 3.0, integrated WiMax and even a 1.5 watt "subwoofer".
Out in February, it's significantly pricier than the competition, starting at $1,600. This, however, includes 4GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD, upgrades that would put pretty much anything like it in the same ballpark.
