From Engadget:
Yes, this is Samsung's latest 10.1-inch Galaxy Tab alright, not to be mistaken with its thicker 10.1v sibling that's gradually rolling out across Europe and Australia. How can you tell? Well, the older Honeycomb tablet bears the GT-P7100 codename, whereas this FCC filing and a Wi-Fi Alliance certificate show off the GT-P7510 moniker for this WiFi-only 10.1. Oh, and the drawing of the backside -- pictured after the break -- is a dead giveaway, of course. What remains unknown is the mysterious 1GHz dual-core CPU inside this razor-thin slate, but given the release of this FCC application, it probably won't be long before all is revealed.
Looks like it's coming to the USA very soon... =)

Nothing so far.
That's sad.
Transformer has a great price and hardware, but aesthetically I prefer 10.1. Since 10.1v will most likely lack support, I really don't know what to do. Bummer...

My exact problem. Asus will supposedly have transformer with scandi keyboard in stock in 3 weeks and the price for tablet+keyboard/dock is 599e. That's a steal when something like Xoom 32GB wifi that got crappier screen costs 699 over here.
But still the 10.1 just got something about it. In the end it probably just goes to what tablet is out first here.

Does that mean that us in europe wont be getting the 10.1 and are stuck with the 10.1v until after the american release???
It makes sense in terms of stock availability for launch I guess

Wow. $100 cheaper. I think that'll make the lack of microSD a little easier to take, because I'll definitely need to spend an extra $100 on the 32GB model, which I hope is now $500 and also available June 8th.
This still does not make up for no micro sd
I think Samsung does not want to mess around with Honeycomb.
Google said it does not have any solution yet for it:

sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can wait until 4th Quater and Ice Cream for SD support.
However, no SD support is still no excuse for leaving out the microSd slot on the GT 10.1 WiFi only version.

I've seen no confirmation one way or the other.
What we do know is the limited edition Google IO wifi Galaxy Tab 10.1 given away did not have micro SD.
And I've seen some reviewers doing hands on with the Galaxy Tab 10.1 3G version that does have a micro SD.
So my guess is the wifi won't have it and the 3G will. Though no clue on how much the 3G version will cost or when it'll be released.
Anyone know of a reputable website that has confirmed the $399? Seems a little good to be true.

The $399 price rumor stated with this ...
"Speaking at the event (Google IO), Samsung officials reportedly told Into Mobile that the company will release a Wi-Fi version of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 priced at $399, the same price as the Eee Pad Transformer."
into mobile reporting:
URL: http://www.intomobile.com/2011/05/09/samsung-galaxy-tab-101-wifi-hitting-june-8/
paragraph of interest:
"Smartly, we’re hearing that the Galaxy Tab 10.1 WiFi will probably land for about $399 before taxes. This is a great way to counter the juggernaut that is the Apple iPad 2 and I can tell you that this device seems like every bit the equal of the Apple tablet."
I'm still a bit skeptical about the price tag. They officially announced it would be $499, now there's just a rumor saying it would be $399. I'm very happy if it's $399 and it makes the lack of sd card slot a bit easier to tolerate, but I wouldn't count on it.

I also looked at Into Mobile's website and found nothing. Agree, it's a little odd if Samsung was sharing this news directly with them, they wouldn't have made this more visible on their website (I see it nowhere).
Still, it felt nice dreaming about it for a few hours.

swyped from a galaxy far far away...
Ok... i want one but i guess they dont send to sweden...
Given this deal, can the Sprint Tab be rooted and connected to Verizon's CDMA 3g, or is it permanently tied to Sprint's 3g network?
I'm thinking about buying it. I'm on the Viewsonic G Tablet forum only, so I don't know much about the Galaxy Tab development. How functional is the Honeycomb port for the Galaxy Tab? I just got Honeycomb installed on my GTab and so far its really good for an alpha build. The only thing not working is flash plugin, camera, and video hardware acceleration.
I just got mine from their last sale, and it works great, have had some over the air upgrades. I, too, have a viewsonic. I like the Galaxy size and the main reason was the built in GPS... Makes the Copilot work more reliable compared to the bluetooth Viewsonic. Of course the Viewsonic big screen is nicer to read documents and web...

Just bought one. I've got the wifi only version right now and really enjoy it. I'm listing that guy on ebay right now and I'm going to start the auction at $260 or so. It'll sell and I'll basically get upgraded hardware (faster processor, BT 3.0) at no cost. I'm down with that.
this must be limited availability... this is monster deal for 3G. thats 180euro
So If I have a current sprint plan with unlimited data, can this be added just like an extra line? obviously that wouldn't include the sprint hotspot. Or, will they require a separate plan?
I am about to hit Buy now, but is it worth it. Any serious opinions on the device from real users is what I like to hear, not reviewers. I own an iPad 2, which is hard to beat. Im no apple_boy either. Its the best thats why I own. Anyways I want a new Android tablet, I have owned one last year (Camangi WebStation) but I want to give it another go. How is the DEVin here, are there a few good ROMs?
I'm in for one, ready to upgrade from my Nook Color. Looking forward to the 1ghz processor and ff camera.

There are a few ROMs available... not near as active as say the HD2 forums or the Xoom forums... Overcome is pretty much the dominant ROM for GSM tabs. Alterbridge has both a 2.2 and a 2.3 rom available at the moment, and Spacemoose1 is currently working on development for Honeycomb for both the GSM and CDMA devices. If I didn't have one of these already, I'd be buying it... Someone point Deeper-Blue to this post so He and Space can develop HC together...
I've got a Nook Color as well and I am considering buying the G Tab on Woot too.
Not sure if I am going to pull the trigger on it, though. Besides cameras and a mic, what else would it give me that my rooted Nook Color doesn't have?
so it might be worth it. I was about to pull the trigger on the ASUS Transformer, but I went to best Buy this morning and it was sold out. I was available online there for like the past 3 days, now SOLD OUT
But I keep seeing these Galaxy Tabs for sale, some pretty good deals, its making me wonder if I should go Honeycomb, the post for this could be a ways away.
Put one on order for my dad, he's been drooling over my g tablet but I'm sure he'll be happy with one of these galaxy tabs. Couldn't beat the price.

If you've been following recent Motorola Xoom developments, you'll know that the first "Google Experience" tablet has just been updated to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Alongside the update, Carphone Warehouse, one of the main sellers of Xooms in the UK, has cut the price of the Wifi-only model to £249.99. This is a £50 drop from the earlier RRP of £299.99, and the latest in a long line of Xoom price drops which has seen the tablet gradually fall from the July price of £399.
It might not be as sleek as the Galaxy Tab 10.1, or as fast as the ASUS Transformer Prime, but £250 for a 10-inch, dual-core ICS tablet isn't a bad deal at all if you ask us. UK readers, would you be tempted to drop £250 on a Xoom at this point? Be sure to let us know in the comments.
http://www.androidcentral.com/motorola-xoom-uk-price-slashed-again-now-£24999
So from a perspective buyer to those who own the Xoom, is it still a worthy purchase compared to newer tablets? I've been wanting to get a 10" tablet but they either lack the dev scene or hit the wallet pretty hard but the Xoom is well supported and at this price seems to be a steal. I did hear about lag/performance issues early on but has this been ironed out? Thanks

ICS for me has fixed all the niggles of honeycomb, its still not perfect but the DEV scene has now gone massive with ICS builds so it wont be long.
Personally I still feel the XOOM is the best made of the tablets, I love the fact that out of all the tablets you can now buy, it still has the smallest bezel which for me is a winner.
Great price for a good tab but the question is when will the uk get the ics update..
Hi, I picked my Xoom up from Argos for £220 and that was before Christmas.
Also had a nice case from Amazon for £10, fits a treat and tablet performs great. J ust waiting now for OTA update to ICS and job done.
Bargain for sure
This is a bargain, ICS is great, no need to wait for the OTA, goto the US version of 3.2.1 and await the push

A good enough price for me . Like you I wonder when ICS will hit the UK. I think I'll give it a month then root it. That gives me time to work out exactly what to do.
Sent from my MZ604 using Tapatalk
Ordered mine last week, should be with me tomorrow hopefully. While there may be newer tablets on the market at the moment, the price of the xoom and the incredible support being offered on this forum make the xoom the clear choice.
My sister just got one from carphone warehouse, she had been looking at one for a while, she just wants it for reading stuff online, so tegra 2 more than powerful enough for her. At £250 with ICS on its way it's too good to leave. If I didn't have the eee pad transformer and hp touchpad I would have considered getting one to play with

Im pretty sure that the 199 price was a short term deal that has expired and it went back to its original price.
I do remember that when I first say this it was for 199.
Speaking of buying a Nexus 7, last year I remember I was searching in a web site for stores that sold, for example, the Nexus 7.
It works like this: I selected the city and enter the product I was looking for, and the result was a list of stores showing the product, the address of the store and the available stock.
The problem is, I can't remember witch web site is this! I spent over 3 hours yesterday trying to remember...
I'm going to USA this year and want to buy some things.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!
