The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 inch Android tablet may be over a year old and ship with Android 2.2 instead of a newer version of the operating system. But it’s a pretty solid device which has a 7 inch, 1024 x 600 pixel display, GPS, a microSD card slot, front and rear cameras, and full access to the Android Market.
Today Woot is offering a refurbished model that has WiFi and 3G capabilities for just $200. The tablet can be used with Verizon or Sprint’s mobile broadband network.
In other words, for the same price as an Amazon Kindle Fire you can get a tablet with more storage, 3G and GPS, expandable storage, and the Android Market. It doesn’t, however, have a dual core processor. It doesn’t sound like a bad tradeoff though.

Glad I didn’t get the tip from your post, because I would have been too late.
I have been debating on whether to get the Fire, Color or arnova g2 7, but went with the tab. Ice cream sandwich should be ported soon and 3g capability was too good to pass up.
P.S.
Don’t disrespect this deal:

Also, Target gives a 5% discount on all purchases made with a Target card. My local store has all of the new Kindles, including the Fire, in stock. Your taxes and inclination will help you to decide if $189 shipped for a pre-configured-to-your-account Kindle Fire from Amazon is better than $189, possible taxes, and instant gratification for an non-pre-configured Kindle Fire from Target is the better deal.
Is also nice to try it out at Target and support a nice brick and mortar store.Â
