Samsung Galaxy 10.1 Coming To Sprint ? As A Wi-Fi Only Device [Sprint Announces Galaxy Tab 10.1 Tablet Availability, Will Arrive June 24th With A $499.99 Price Tag]

Sprint will soon be adding another tablet to their currently available lineup. The model is the Samsung Galaxy 10.1, however while this sounds like it will be a good way to pick up a 4G equipped tablet ? you may want to read on.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

First things first though, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 will be available beginning June 24th and can be found in all the usual ways including in Sprint retail stores as well as through telesales, web sales and even Spring business sales. In terms of the pricing, $499.99.

?Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 expands Sprint?s tablet innovation, growing our lineup to five options,? said David Owens, Sprint vice president of product development. ?This gives Sprint customers a one-stop-shop for all of their tablet needs. Galaxy Tab 10.1 is a dynamic tablet, but it is even more amazing when paired with the Sprint 4G network through our Overdrive Pro 3G/4G Mobile Hotspot by Sierra Wireless or MiFi 3G/4G Mobile Hotspot by Novatel.?

And while Sprint seems to be excited to offer the Galaxy Tab 10.1, we have to point out that last part of the above quote ? when paired with an Overdrive or MiFi. Yup, the Galaxy Tab that Sprint will be offering comes as a Wi-Fi only device. Hence the $499.99 price tag and no-contract requirements.

Bottom line, you can hit up one of the many retail outlets that are currently selling the Galaxy Tab 10.1 as of today or you can wait until June 24th to pick one up from Sprint. Of course, either way you will get a tablet that is running Android 3.1 Honeycomb and sporting features to include a 10.1 inch (1280 x 800) touchscreen display, dual-core 1GHz Tegra 2 processor, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1, 2 megapixel front facing camera and a 3 megapixel rear facing camera.

With that, I am not sure I get the whole shop with a carrier to buy a Wi-Fi only device, but I suppose the more availability the better the chance that these tablets have to succeed with the general non-geeky public.
