samsung galaxy tab Samsung Galaxy Tab: Fast And Serious iPad Contender

Samsung Galaxy Tab, the 7-inch slate has now shown up in Israel, complete with a CDMA radio, supposedly in the hands of a security app developer.  Meanwhile, details on the Samsung Galaxy Tab’s accessories have also been spotted, including a QWERTY keyboard dock and Table Charging Station complete with HDMI connectivity.

According to the lucky app developer, the Samsung slate is fast and a serious iPad contender, with slick Flash playback on the Android 2.2 OS installed, together with tough audio performance they had to use their own CDMA network equipment, since this seems to be a Galaxy Tab headed to the North American market and, sources suggest, Verizon particularly.  Only blot on the scorecard is GPS that is apparently sluggish initially, though after it locks it in fact works fine.

As for the accessories, an iPad-style carry case which doubles as a stand for watching videos will supposedly be $52, the Table Charging Station will be $69 and the 83-key keyboard dock will be $105.  There are also various cables and adapters.
