Samsung has announced the price of its iPad rival, the Galaxy Tab. It will cost $600 and come contract-free on Verizon’s 3G network. A data plan is optional and will cost $20 per month for 1GB, and the tablet will be available to buy on November 11th.
It’s an interesting price, coming in at just $30 shy of the cheapest iPad 3G, but with a
I can’t guess how this will go. Samsung has, after all, sold five million of its Galaxy S phones in just three months, and many people will surely appreciate the pocket-ability of the smaller form-factor. On the other hand, the iPad can now be had on Verizon for around the same price, although you do have to use the MiFi hotspot to get Verizon 3G.
One thing is certain. The Galaxy Tab is the first really viable alternative to the iPad, and it will show us if the non-nerd public is willing to buy tablets in general like they do cellphones, or if they are only interested in Apple’s, as happened with its dominant iPad market. We’ll see soon enough.
