Samsung's Galaxy Tab heads for the Three network

UK MOBILE OPERATOR Three's announcement that it will be 'ranging' Samsung's Galaxy Tab tablet hasn't provided any more clues as to what the device will cost. Yesterday we reported that the tablet is popping up on merchant websites at prices up to £700, and today, upon hearing that Three has tipped up with its monthly tariffs we expected to get another, perhaps more reasonable, subsidised price to add to the mix. Alas, that is not the case. Although Three is offering the Samsung tablet on a range of monthly price plans, it is unable to tell us how much the thing will cost, when it might know, or even when it might be selling it. Pro stuff chaps. Pro. Muddying the waters further is the fact that Three is offering Galaxy Tab tariffs on one month rolling contracts, which means it has opted out of guaranteed 18-24 month user subscriptions. Instead users are treated to a choice of monthly plans. Either of two voice and data packages are on offer - £10 a month including 100 any network minutes, 2000 Three-to-Three minutes, 3000 texts and 1GB data, or the £15 a month including 300 any network minutes, 2000 Three-to-Three minutes, 3000 texts and 1GB data option. Alternatively, anyone who already has a phone can opt for the data only option and there are again two to choose from - 1GB data for £7.50 per month or 5GB data for £15 per month.
