I saw this too....Not bad. Only issue I have with this deal is that it's refurbished with only a 90-day warranty from woot and then you're on your own if it takes a crap.
hmmmm........

And I litterally just got one on eBay for $300... Do I return it and get this one? Or just stick it out as a decision I've made?

Return and get this one. Unless eBay one is new.
In Australia they are going for 299 new
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.

Deal hit slickdeals, better hurry

Cannot find off-contract atrix at ATT webpage

Hi all,
I am not in U.S. and want to buy an atrix.
I asked one of my friends in U.S. to buy one and hope to unlock it to use it.
But my friend told me the ATT web page only showed on-contract price(499-300=$199) to him, which is same to me. We cannot find the off-contract price page as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952384
He also called ATT local store but was also told currently there is no off-contract atrix.
But I do see so many friends in the forum pre-ordered off-contract atrix.
I don't know what is wrong.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks
The Atrix wlll be available at AT&T stores this Monday the 21st. Off contract price is now listed at $499. Best Buy and Amazon should have them soon also. Of course it remains to be seen if it can be unlocked. You may want to hold off until people get a chance to play with it although I know it is difficult to wait. I hear they are working on quadcore and much faster processors for next year. I hope to have my Atrix on monday.
Same here, iam living in Europe searching for a way to get a new nextgen android device asap.
...currently comparing atrix and sgs2.
sgs2 release one month later than atrix.
However it seems not stronger than atrix.
sgs2 has gyro 2.3rom, but no hdmi
moto has fingerprint reader, but locked bl, no gyro, 2.2rom
hope update to 2.3 or 2.4 soon
really hard to choose
currently I prefer atrix. as I guess tegra 2 is more powerful.
hope to see benchmarks of sgs2 for further comparison
$499 does not seem to be that expensive at all. The Nexus S is still at $529 at Best Buy, who will then buy that ?! (OK, you get 2.3 and unlocked bootloader) but from a hardware point of view the Atrix is probably much better off.
I also agree that $499 is not that expensive. But I am afraid not everyone can get an Atrix in that price.
From the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952384
, it seems only Premier users of att can pre-order an off-contract atrix.(at even lower price).
But the $499 price atrix does not show to other users in ATT web page. at least, I can not see.
Ok, the price for nexus s is too much now.
What i didnt liked at sgs is the cheap look and feel with this hardware. Maybe similar at sgs2...atrix seems to be the winner here.
Did anyone read about which camera wins in this battle?
What you guys think about the display comparison?
CPU power is not so important i think, anything dualcore is kind of overpowered these days.
What really sucks with the atrix is this encrypted bootloader.
I wanna use current custom roms without apps that no one needs, or at least the option to use things like launcher pro.

Read the thread title - it's for "off-contract" - the link you provided the OP was already aware of, he wants to know where it is available off-contract...
ATT posted $499.99 as the off contract price on there Facebook wall a couple of weeks ago...but I'm curious now as I dont see price on ATT.con

Saw it, liked it, bought it.

Just got home from PC World in York with my new Galaxy Tab 10.1, I have to say that I love the look and feel of it compared to the Transformer that I returned a while back.
I was undecided about going for 16GB or waiting for the 32GB version, but after some thought I opted for the 16GB unit. I've got myself on the Google Music Beta so that's sorted, I may load on a few movies for trips etc but that won't be that often really. I don't think the storage limitations will me a major issue for me.
I'm aware that Kal-el is in the pipeline but this dual core should suit my needs, email, browsing and such. When Kal-el hits the streets, then we'll have to see what effect that has on the dual core tablets resale value, but I'm a little happier knowing that I've spent £399 as opposed to almost £500 for the 32GB or 3G models soon to be released. Hopefully I won't take too much of a loss if I decide to go for a newer Quad core next year.
A question, I don't see a charging led, is there one?
quick question mate - do you have a full 16gb spare? or is some taken with the android OS and apps etc? i have the 32gb on order and was thinking to the get the 16gb..
Congrats on the new tab! I also came from the transformer.... Returned for several and never could get a good one. As for the notification light... there isnt one.

I haven't actually set it up yet, it's switched off but on charge, thought it might be quicker to charge it that way? The demo unit in PC World had 12GB spare though if that helps. I remember the TF was about the same after being set up.

Ok thanks Danny!
Congrats on the new Tab! I got mine this past Saturday...use it every day!! I love it and I like that I could transfer files so easily between my Infuse and Tab using Bluetooth, unlike my iPad 2!

P7510 16GB Refurb - $319 on Woot.com

Pretty good price. Choice of colors. Shipping's $5.00. You can get a SquareTrade warranty on it pretty cheap when they have their 30% off deals.
http://www.woot.com/
Already put my order in. I've been looking for an upgrade from my Nook Color, and at that price I couldn't pass it up.
I also picked one of these up. Leaving an Archos 7" for it.
i tried the ViewSonic GTab 10.1" also from Woot, and loved the perfomance. But it was more than 2x the weight of my 7" tablet and just a pig to hold, so I sold it.
Hoping that rooting and loading a lighter dev ROM will bring the Sammy up to optimization.
After missing the $250 Transformer at BB I had to grab this. Now I am jumping into a well established forum. Is there any mandatory reading for this device?
Do woot ship internationally?

As the Republicans say, "Well, at least I got mine!"
So I got lucky and caught them before they sold out, any "Must Have" accessories for this puppy?
Refurbished. I always hated buying refurbished electronics. I always think there's something that's going to happen with it! haha. Lets hope not. Luckily, I got mine back in June .. made a trip to the states to pick it up and got stopped at border and had to pay customs
I recently picked this up on Woot as well... was ecstatic about this purchase.
I just bought the Pyro black carbon fiber case based off what I read in the accessories section, seems pretty spectacular, esp for the price.

With a Teg 2 and HC, very little. You'll get acceptable 720P but kiss 1080P good-bye. Some of the cooked ROMs have AllShare (Samsung's DLNA client) if not the app's in the dev section with instructions if you're rooted. It's also included in the stock 3.2 ROMs. There's an HDMI connector Samsung sells if you want a hard-wired connection.

Factory refurb SGT 7 (cdma your choice of vzw or sprint) on woot today!

The daily deal website Woot.com (trusted, i've ordered quite a few things from them in the past, they are great) has original 7" Galaxy Tab CDMA units on sale (your choice of sprint or verizon) for $199 +$5 shipping.
seems like a great deal considering that I paid $350 on ebay for a well cared for tmobile SGT 7" about 3 months ago, and that seemed like the general used going rate. (honestly i feel a little insulted that it can be had for such a low rate now).
anyhow, just wanted to let people know about a great deal if you guys are interested. I am in no way affiliated with woot, just a happy past customer who is always out for a great deal.
http://deals.woot.com/sellout
also, btw, woot only keeps it's deals up for 24 hours max (or until they sell out of units), so if you're interested: the sooner, the better.
I JUST bought mine... it was too good to pass up, even if the model is not a good one for flashing on, which im sure it is because i've been looking at a 7inch tablet for a while now, it was too good a deal for a 16gb 7in for me to pass.
i got 2. one for my GF one for my Dad. I have a 10.1 and love it. A little dissapointed that it only has gingerbread but i guess thats because it is single core.
I was going to get my GF the Amazon Fire but a full tablet for the same price seems like the way to go.
not going to activate 3g though. wifi is fine.
Maybe the fact that Woot just sold 1500 CDMA tabs to a (generally) tech-savvy audience will spur some additional CDMA tab development ... never know!

[Q] Should I buy a Tab 10.1

I am thinking of a buying a Galaxy Tab 10.1. The asking price is $300 obo so it is negotiable. Is this a good decision or not?
I am rather uninformed about the current tablet scene so any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
No. Google has just announced the Nexus 10 which is $399 for the 16GB version. The seller is likely trying to sell now so they can trade up before people jump on the current round of new devices and the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is worth even less.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1 is outdated already and Samsung will not be providing anymore software updates for it. (Although I'm sure there will be people saying that it's not 100% certain and their web petitions may cause Samsung to miraculously change their minds and spend more money on getting Android 4.1 released to this device)

Another nexus 10 recommendation, unless its too expensive (I'd recommend waiting and saving up for the difference if money is an issue) or if you must have mobile data on your tablet (if you can tether from your phone this isn't an issue, or if you will always have an available wifi connection).
No way...go for the Nexus 10.

The tab 10.1 will likely not be getting official jelly bean + The screen is not as good as other offerings right now. I think the nexus 10 with its much better screen, and straight from google updates is a much better device for $100 more. Also, where do you live? Used 16 gb tab 10.1s can be had for under $250 off Kijiji in most Canadian cities, and I'd bet it's similar in the states.
Asking $300? Ask him/her if u can punch them in the mouth for offering it @ such a silly price! For that, you might as well spend a few more bucks and buy it retail so you get a warranty with it. On eBay, most working 1st gen S.G 10.1 tabs average between $200-250, depending on the condition and what comes with it. Or you can do what I did and buy a broken one and repair it yourself.
I bought one with a broken screen on eBay for $99 + s/h. Ordered a new LCD for $55 and digitizer for $22 which totals about $175 that I spent on the tab.. which beats buying a working one for more than what it's worth. The 1st generation tab is still a good pick, better than the 2nd gen some say, as long as you're rooted w/ a custom rom and o/c capable kernel installed.
So, if you really want a 1st gen. galaxy tab 10.1, I'd say offer him $200. Otherwise, try eBay or hold out for something better, like mentioned above.

You would have to troubleshoot on your laptop as well. Like reinstalling drivers and such if you didn't attempt that.
Back when it was released it was a good tablet. But with very bad support from Samsung, it lost it's grip.

Im sure that the issue is not related to my laptop since i have tried 3 laptops with no luck.
The drivers re-installed more than 10 times. Moreover the other Samsung devices recognized by same laptop properly !
im going to send it to service center
