The Samsung Galaxy Tab is preparing itself for launch on multiple carriers as Three UK has just announced that they, too, will be receiving the Android tablet and has even offered up voice and data tariffs for the highly anticipated device. Three UK is going to be offering three voice packages as well as two data-only packages, as you can see below.
The Samsung GALAXY Tab will be available on SIM only one month rolling voice and data contracts.
Three voice packages:
– SIM10: £10 a month including 100 any network minutes, 2000 Three-to-Three minutes, 3000 texts and 1GB data
– SIM15: £15 a month including 300 any network minutes, 2000 Three-to-Three minutes, 3000 texts and 1GB data
Monthly data only packages:
– 1GB data for £7.50
– 5GB data for £15
Data customers are able to make calls and send text with their data SIM at 10p per text, 10p to call Three mobile or landlines and 25p to other networks.
The pricing for the device itself has not been announced, but as we see these low tariffs we assume the 7″ Android tablet will not be subsidized.
Below is the press release coming from Three UK.
