I have kept an eye on the Galaxy Players 5.0, 4.0, 3.6 which aren't bad except for the screen resolution. Only about 800 on the wide side. The Note has about 1200 or so. No AMOLED or stylus either.
The price is good though. Less than $200 on Amazon for the Player 5.0.

So there is room for Samsung to poke a compromise in.
I believe the Player 5.0 and 4.0 have the same resolution, meaning the 4 is actually sharper due to higher DPI. But you are right that with 800x480 they're using yesteryear resolutions, 1280x720 is today's standard. I second that the Note would be a better fit, even if used as WiFi only, if you can find it at the price others have indicated.
