Bloomberg is reporting that Samsung plans to launch its own Surface competitor, a Windows RT tablet in October. The new devices, according to the Bloomberg report will use Qualcomm's Snapdragon ARM chip and not the company's Exynos ARM chips. Qualcomm revealed earlier this year that its chips were ready to work with Windows RT and is already in production.

It's interesting to hear that Samsung might be planning to tackle Microsoft in the Windows RT arena, proving that Microsoft's Surface could be a threat to them. Bloomberg reports that Samsung will aim to release its Windows RT tablets in October, the same month we expect Microsoft to start selling the Surface.
