If you didn’t think Samsung was a big deal before today, I’m about to change your mind.  At the 2009-2010 European Imaging and Sound Association Awards, Samsung took home a whopping five awards in the categories of European Green TV, European WebMedia TV, European Home Theatre Design, European Camera Phone and European Advanced Compact Camera.

The EISA awards, just for the sake of some background are voted on by the editors of the premier European consumer magazines, so you know these represent some of the highest honors the European critical community can bestow.

Even better, Samsung’s own materials indicate that no other company has won two EISA awards in a new TV category–LED tvs–and even better, it’s the sixth year in a row Samsung won an award in the home theatre category.

So congratulations go out to Samsung, who pretty much cleaned up at the equivalent of the Academy Awards for home entertainment materials, and here’s hoping you have an even better year next year.
