Adding on to the rumor of a November launch for the Galaxy Tab on Sprint, BGR is also reporting that just like the Samsung Epic 4G was a WiMAX variant of the Galaxy S, the tablet may also be getting the 4G treatment. That would be a pretty big incentive for the Sprint version if it turns out to be true, but we’ll just have to wait and see about that.

I’m going to agree and say none of these tablets will succeed if they require carrier service. The people who are willing to have a 3rd! (home, cell, now tablet) Internet bill have already purchased their iPad 3G. There’s nooooooo way I would buy a 7″ version of my Galaxy S and pay twice the bill… rediculous.
Sounds nice but while I’m partial to Android, I still have the same hard time justifying the purchase…especially if it means yet another bill. I already have a powerful desktop/workstation for heavy work and gaming, a modest 2 year old laptop for taking on the road, and an Evo in my pocket. I understand that it is all relative to a person’s disposable income and needs but I would have a hard time spending $400-800 on a device that kinda squeezes in between my Evo and laptop. Hopefully in a year or two as my laptop starts showing its age this new slab tablet market will have matured to the point where I might be able to pick one up as a laptop replacement.
WIFI only please these tablets will fail if they require another contract on top of existing cell phone contracts.
