Release Date
The Galaxy tab has been released in the US from T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&T, U.S. Cellular and Verizon.
T-Mobile started offering the SGH-T849 Galaxy Tab on November 10, 2010
Verizon started offering the SCH-I800 Galaxy Tab on November 11, 2010. Verizon's version of the Galaxy Tab has a textured black back, as opposed to the standard plastic rear of the T-Mobile, Sprint, and AT&T versions. The Verizon and Sprint versions disable the Human Interface Device (HID) bluetooth features so it will not work with bluetooth keyboards, mice, etc. However, a recent Verizon update has corrected this issue.
Sprint started offering the Galaxy Tab on November 14, 2010.
AT&T began offering the Tab on November 21, 2010, with no contract requirement.
The FCC approved a Wi-Fi only version of the Galaxy Tab. Some Best Buy advertisements appear to have been prematurely leaked about the Wi-Fi only version of the Galaxy Tab.
Wi-Fi-only model was released on April 11, 2011.
