Samsung confirmed on Friday what has been suspected: the Galaxy Tab tablet PC that it earlier said would ship during Q3 2010 will be Android-powered.
A Samsung executive announced in June that the company would begin selling a tablet named the Galaxy Tab in Q3. However, the executive did not announce that OS would be on the tablet. Based on the names of Samsung's current Galaxy S smartphones, it was an obvious guess that the device would run Android, but it was still a guess.
On Friday, however, Samsung confirmed to Reuters that the Galaxy Tab would run Android, althogh it is unclear if that would be Android 2.1 or 2.2. The device, shown above via a leaked image, will have a 7" screen, forward and rear-facing cameras, GPS, wi-fi, AMOLED screen, and TouchWiz UI. The all-important price is still not known.
