Google gives away 5,000 Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablets to devs at I/O
Hey, who said we'd only get software news at Google I/O? The Android maker just reminded us that Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet (the thin version) will be launching in a month's time, and to whet appetites, a white-backed version of the device was shown off on stage. It's described as a limited edition, potentially because it looks to be running stock Android without the TouchWiz UI layer on top, and will be given away to the gathered crowd of 5,000 conference attendees. They'll get it with Honeycomb 3.0 on board, but an update to 3.1 will be forthcoming over the next couple of weeks as well. %Gallery-123230%

We're very excited to unveil a brand-new feature here at Massively: our Massively site on Enjin! This is your central location for all the extras -- our chat room (which will replace the current IRC setup), events calendar, voice server information, and forum. We still love it when you comment directly on the news and columns via our comment system, but if you want a more in-depth discussion beyond that -- or to leave suggestions on various aspects of Massively -- our shiny new forums are the place for that. Even better, we're so excited about this new feature that we've arranged to share it with you! Enjin has a pile of cool features in its guild and clan hosting packages: Mumble voice servers; forums; event calendars; application and recruitment systems; personalized guild, clan, and gaming themes; multi-game support; and much more. Sound good? We hope so, because we have four one-year Enjin hosting packages to give away! One guild will win an ultimate package, and three others will each receive a premium package. To enter, send us an email telling us how you'd use a year of free guild hosting. Tell us a little about your guild, what premium and ultimate Enjin features you love, and which ones your guild will use the most. Include a screenshot of your guild and the subject line "Enjin contest," and you are entered! You have until next Wednesday, April 13th at 11:59 p.m. EDT to get your entry in. We'll announce the winning guilds on Thursday, April 14th, so read over our contest rules, get those entries in, and best of luck!
