Is Samsung readying a Galaxy S III version running on Tizen?
Share:
A new Tizen device has recently been certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance and interestingly it carries the same model name and number as the Samsung Galaxy S III. Shown as the “GT-I9300_TIZEN,” the phone carries the same initials as the Android-based Galaxy S III, but is said to be running the upcoming Tizen platform.
Confusing as it is, we wouldn’t be surprised to see another variation on the Galaxy S III theme with Tizen from Samsung - after all we’ve seen virtually the same design arrive on the Galaxy Note II.
There is always a slight chance that Samsung is just testing its new Tizen operating system on the Galaxy S III, but it wouldn’t make any sense for the Koreans to certify that device. The listing mentions dual-band Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct and a new Miracast standard for simplified streaming.

Without apps how Tizen can sell? Remember SS is OHA member and cannot let Tizen to run Android apps (just like the case with Acer+ Alibaba).

Not enough info on this. Would rather see the MeeGo relaunch or the open source WebOS get a chance.
