NOPE.
There's the 10.1V the thick one on Vodafone
There's the 10.1 the thin one
and the 8.9. A small thin one.
first:
its not called galaxy tab 2.
Second :
the difference between the 10.1 and 8.9 is just size (physical and battery)
the difference between the 10.1 and 10.1v is more pronounced
What the 10.1 (and 8.9) has over the 10.1v
Pls display
MicroSD card reader
Thiner
Dual wi-fi antenna (10.1only)
Bluetooth 3.0 (8.9only)

As for the 10.1 versions, the confusion is caused by Samsung. The 10.1 v was announced at the CES, before the launch of the iPad 2. It was/is a tablet with almost the same dimensions as the Xoom (only a bit lighter, although very noticeable) .
The 10.1 was introduced at the Mobile Congress in Barcelona after the introduction of the iPad 2, and it was Samsungs answer to it. It was basically the predecessor (which wasn't launched by then) with the only difference that it was a lot smaller.
Somehow Samsung made the confusing decision to launch the unit the introduced at the CES, although they developed a successor before the introduction of it. Why? Maybe they had the production ready for the first version, don't know, but yes, very weird. Nevertheless as far as I know the 10.1v is exclusively sold by Vodafone and were released the previous week. The 10.1 will be released in June in the USA according to some blogs.
For the exact differences between 10.1 and the current 10.1v see post by k-dog
(As far as I know, the preproduction unit introduced at the CES also had a microsd slot etc. .. the way I see it, Samsung made a clever deal with Vodafone to dump their first units with little additional costs. But that is of course just an interpretation ...)

Samsung has us all confused with changing the 10.1.
My understanding is that Galaxy Tab 10.1 was first announced at Mobile Congress in Barcelona.
The new thin iPad 2 announced shortly after in March.
Samsung announced the "thin" Galaxy tab 10.1 March 24th at CTIA in Orlando along with the 8.9 version. Samsung wanted their tablet to be the thinnest. The original Galaxy Tab 10.1 became the 10.1v.
Release date for the USA for the 10.1 wifi only model is June 8th.
Here's the Samsung CTIA keynote address.

It would appear the 10.1v has dual wifi antenna also - I have one in front of me right now and it has the option of connecting to my 2.4ghz wifi router and my 5ghz 802.11n AP.
You are right. Samsungs site for the 10.1v does say it has dual antennas
Maybe the 8.9 also has it then.
cameras?
So I'm guessing the new 10.1 is better than 10.1v?
What's the difference in camera?
And what tablet would you guys recommend me to get?
Thanks
The 10.1 is "better" from the little we know now.
the camera on the 10.1 is a 3mp that can record in 1080p
But the 10.1v has the same 8mp as the galaxy s 2.
the camera is the only thing the 10.1v has over the 10.1
10.1 has micro SD card slot.

OH ****. Yup. The 8.9 has one, according to http://originus.samsung.com/us/news/newsRead.do?news_seq=19833&gltype
I'm a little confused about why the 8.9 has one and the 10.1 doesn't.
10.1 does have MicroSD
Same with the 8.9
but the 10.1v does not
which is released
so the thicker one 10.1v is released?
and the slimmer tab is not yet released?
Yes
the 10.1v (thicker) is out in select markets
the 10.1 (slim) will be out in about a months time
There is one more unknown but potentially quite big difference between 10.1v and 10.1 - heart of the tablet.
While 10.1v runs with Tegra 2 inside (so if you want to watch movies on your new device it might prove difficult) the coming one 10.1 is described by Samsung as with " dual core 1Ghz processor inside".
We all here think (and some of us hope) that this "secrecy" means it will run with Exynos (Samsung's own design) inside. If so it would mean this would be more versatile device than Tegra 2 tablets and iPad 2 - true king of tabs.
Please be exynos please be exynos please be exynos

I can get the 10.1v today. Should I wait for the slimmer version? I live in Europe. Will the 10.1 also have an mini hdmi out or the same port as the SGSII?
Edit: Nevermind I just read all the issues with the 10.1v. Tbh I will wait for the slim version. Ports, SD slot and better screen are more important than a good camera.

That is exactly what I am doing and also why (if slim GT is not Exynos based) why it dose not make any sense to Samsung to hide this information if it is only Tegra CPU. Beside sd support some ppl. might have buy 10.1v if they knew 10.1 is not that much different.
Do I read things correctly that 10.1v is actually more expensive that 10.1?
I saw Gaalaxy Tab in Lisboa last week and now I ve red an article that there will be an improved model after 8th of June. (TabletsForU). can you please confirm that?
Yes, we can. What you saw is GT 10.1v (for Vodafone only) the one coming is just 10.1
Plenty about it here and with Google.
During CTIA Samsung said June 8th is the launch date.

Hey Guys,
As you know the Galaxy Tab 10.1 will be released in the UK on the 4th of August. Samsung are holding an event in London with free drinks, music and the chance to win all sorts of cool stuff this Wednesday (the 3rd).
To get on the guestlist / find out a bit more go here: http://on.fb.me/prQ2wW
I'll be there if you want to meet up for a pint!
Also - a bunch of the mobilers have been given Galaxy Tabs if you want any of us to put a screwdriver to it
Dom
So if I bring my mine along can I get it updated to TouchWiz UX?
What's this 'Samsung Mobilers' thing people keep making mention of?
Help me clear this out, what was the first release of Samsung Galaxy Tab? Wasn't it 10.1? Coz I think mine is 10.1 and I got this way back March. How come it will only be released in your area this month?
Or am I completely wrong? 10.1 is actually the new Samsung Tab?
Does that mean I'm in the wrong forums?
*confused*

The P1000 that you're posting from is the original Galaxy Tab, which is a 7" tablet with a single-core CPU running Froyo/Gingerbread.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1 (model number P7500, I think...) is a 10" dual-core tablet running Honeycomb.
does anyone know if they will have 32GB Wifi in black or even white, PC world expects to have it in stock on 11/8/11 and black 28/8/11 (OMG!!!)
With the updates of official ICS being released for the 10.1 and the upcoming releases for the 10.1 Tab 2 and 10.1 Note, (Not to mention the Ipad3 with it's next-gen display)
is this the end of the road for the 10.1v?
Should we (the owners of 10.1v) sell our 10.1v units before the SIGNIFICANT price drop/demand for this model?
currently the owner of 2x 10.1v Units...
I thought the 10.1v was discontinued before it was released... so i think you are late already.
