Samsung Galaxy Tab, the first tablet PC that Samsung brought to the market with Google's Android operating system on board, is expected to make an appearance on AT&T's network as soon as November 21st.
Nothing was announced officially as of yet, but leaked documents from the carrier unveil the fact that it would plan on making the tablet PC available for purchase on its airwaves in a little more than one week from now.
We already knew that the wireless carrier has in plan the launch of Galaxy Tab on its airwaves, but nothing was unveiled specifically on the release date, pricing and the like.
However, the aforementioned leaked document, which emerged over at Engadget, shows that November 21st is the set launch date for the new device, and that it would sport a price tag of $649.99 without a contract.
Moreover, it appears that AT&T would have the new tablet PC available with the 250MB for $14.99 per month or 2GB for $25 per month plans, the same as for the 16GB WiFi + 3G iPad (priced at $629).
For what it's worth, the offerings other carriers in the country put in place for the new device seem far more appealing.
T-Mobile's or Verizon's Galaxy Tab offerings include the device at only $599.99 off contract, while the contract price tag for the Android-based slate was set at $399.99.
When made available for purchase at AT&T, the Galaxy Tab should sport a series of pre-installed applications too, such as the Nook eReader and the AT&T Account Manager app.
Of course, it still remains to be seen whether the tablet PC will indeed sport the said price tag at AT&T, and whether the content included on it will resume to the aforementioned applications.
For those out of the loop, we should note that the slate was already made available for purchase at T-Mobile on Wednesday, and that it should be released on Verizon's airwaves too starting today.
