Samsung may be plotting the launch of a 10.1-inch iteration of its Galaxy Note phone/tablet hybrid device later this month at MWC. Reports suggest that the company will release a larger version of the stylus-equipped, 5.3-inch Android device at the annual mobile expo in Barcelona. The reasons for those suspicions are two-fold. Firstly, the Galaxy Note 10.1 name appears on a Samsung MWC Developer Day invitation. Secondly, a casting call note requesting a \"Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 user\" for a commerical shoot in early February has emerged. Neither provide concrete evidence for a launch, but they\'re pretty solid hints. Note to Galaxy Tab Of course Samsung already has a pretty stellar 10.1 inch tablet, in the Galaxy Tab 10.1, although sales of that device remain under threat from a host of Apple lawsuits, which allege that it copied the iPad. The question begs, if the Koreans decide to launch a larger Note, would it still bear all of the same hallmarks, including cellular capabilities? If so, it\'d be the largest mobile phone this side of the 1980s. It\'s also worth mentioning that Samsung has no press conference planned for MWC, so any launch is likely to be relatively low-key.
