(More customer reviews)BE VERY CAREFUL
Samsung positions this HDMI adapter as a way to watch movies and TV shows that you buy on your Galaxy Tab on your TV, but they leave out the inconvenient fact that movies and TV shows you purchase through the Samsung Media Hub or any other DRM protected media are copy protected, and thus won't play on your TV. A message stating, ""HDMI blocked during Protected Content Playback" appears on your TV screen instead of any picture or sound output.
I bought a movie to watch on the Samsung Media Hub and I figured it would be simple to download it to my new Galaxy Tab, buy the Media Dock, and connect it to my Samsung TV.
Did it work? NO!
Supposedly, Samsung will sell me a movie to watch, sell me the device to connect my Galaxy Tab to my TV, sell me the TV, but no, I can't watch the movie I bought.
The Samsung "customer care" people say "it plays on your Galaxy Tab, so we won't give you a refund" for the movie I bought on the Samsung site.
Question: If this is how Samsung treats their customers, how do they treat their enemies?
Galaxy Tab: great so far
Samsung HDMI MultiMedia Dock: Avoid at all costs, unless you want to watch un-copy protected shows/movies on your TV. (Unless, in other words, you're a geek who knows how to rip DVDs / Movies / Stuff to your computer, then transform it to a format your Galaxy Tab will play, then put it on your tab. Short answer - don't buy it, because you can't watch all the stuff you will want to watch)
Samsung Media Hub movie and TV purchases: be ready to spend hours IM'ing and talking with "customer service" representatives if what you buy doesn't do what you expect. And be ready to call your credit card company to dispute the charge when Samsung declines to stop screwing you.
