Samsung to stop sale of Windows RT tablets in Germany due to weak demand, according to MobileGeeks

Samsung withdrawing Windows RT tablets from Germany and some other European countries

We already know that Samsung was too timid (or maybe too sensible) to launch its Windows RT-based ATIV Tab hybrid in the US, but now it appears the manufacturer is having doubts about European demand too. Our friends at MobileGeeks are reporting that Samsung will stop selling its ATIV Tab in Germany -- Europe's biggest economy -- and some other (unnamed) European countries after speaking to retailers about the level of interest they're seeing for Microsoft's stripped down OS. MobileGeeks editor Sascha Pallenberg tells us that this European retreat has been confirmed to him directly by Samsung, and that the Korean company simply "sees no market for RT in Germany and other European countries." We've asked Samsung for further clarification and we'll update this post as soon as we hear back. As things stand, the ATIV Tab is still listed for sale by Amazon.de priced at 605 euros.
