Customers who’ve been eagerly awaiting their chance to buy a Samsung Galaxy Tab won’t have to wait much longer, as Verizon Wireless announced today that they will be offering the tablet starting November 11. The 7” Galaxy runs on Android 2.2 and packs a 1GHz Cortex A8 Hummingbird Application processor as well as a camera and support for Adobe Flash. It also comes with a pretty high price tag—$599.99. That doesn’t service, which is an extra $20 a month for 1 GB. How does that stack up against Verizon’s Wi-Fi version of the iPad, which will sell for $629.99, including the Mi-Fi accessory that allows users to connect to its network? Considering that the iPad offers a larger screen, thousands more apps and an outstanding reputation for the extra $30, the Galaxy doesn’t sound like such a great deal. When customers are standing in the Verizon store comparing the two, the iPad is likely to be the winner.
