Samsung May 24 event gets postponed to a later date

May 24 was marked in our calendars as the day when Samsung would host yet another media event in New York. Being as passionate about gadgets as we are, we were really hoping to be treated to some spicy news regarding the manufacturer's latest smartphones and tablets, but it looks like this isn't happening on that day. To our disappointment, the event has been postponed for undisclosed reasons and it is most probably getting rescheduled to a later date.

Even though it wasn't exactly clear what was going to be announced at the event, chances were that the Samsung Galaxy S II, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, and the Galaxy Tab 8.9 were going to be among the main highlights since all of them are expected to launch across the US pretty soon. Could one of these devices somehow be the cause for the event to be put off? The Galaxy Tab 10.1 was already seen at Google I/O in working condition and the Galaxy S II is already rumored to be launching for at least three of the nation's carriers so the reason for the delay is nothing but a mystery for now.

We hope that Samsung postponing the event will not lead to the Galaxy S II and the Galaxy Tab 10.1 getting their launch dates delayed as well. Updates on the situation from Samsung are expected to follow, so as soon as we find something out we will make sure to let you know.
