Yep, in two days you can get the new 4G LTE version of the Galaxy Tab 7.7 through Verizon. price will be $499.99 with new 2yr agreement and you’ll have to subscribe to a $30 per month 2gb data plan on top of that. I have a couple tablets and I just don’t find the need to have constant internet access on them. I have my phone, the HTC Titan, with it a nice large screen that’s more than good enough for browsing, email etc. I have my tablet with me for games and media really. And I just can’t see paying $500 for a 7.7” tablet when there are bigger tablets with the same or very similar specs for half the price really. Eh whatever..
