Samsung Galaxy Tab News no comments
Samsung would like wireless providers to bundle the Galaxy Tab with mobile phones to keep the price lower for customers.
Samsung’s global head of mobile device sales and marketing, Lee Don Joo, indicates in an interview with the Financial Times that Samsung would like to see the Galaxy Tab bundled with consumers’ regular cell phones on a single data plan with a single bill, rather than having consumers pay for two separate connections.
The WSJ was told by a Samsung executive that most likely the Tab would cost $200–$300, depending on subsidies from wireless service providers.
Both articles also say that Samsung will only be selling the Galaxy Tab through service providers and not directly to consumers. In fact, the Galaxy Tab is at the moment available for pre-order at Amazon.de for €799 (via CrunchGear).
Meanwhile, Electricpig reports that a Galaxy Tab prototype has already been rooted by German Android developers Sera-Apps.
