i know the Galaxy 2 is on its way, but $199 is a good price for this tablet IMO.... if your willing to spend what is now a precious upgrade on it..

available via sprint.com

Yeah... That's on contract... I'm not willing to spend 200.00 + 240.00 (for non existing 4g service (San Diego)) when I can get a wifi tab and use my EVO's internet access. But 200 bucks is not bad.

actually when you "upgrade this device" on sprint.com, it doesnt replace your phone on the account..

i bought a Dell Mini 10, for free, using an upgrade from SPrint.. it shows nowhere on my account, anywhere.. and the phone that i upgraded against to get it, still shows on my account and works as right as rain...

so idk.. one would be wasting an upgrade, but the device stays active.. so your Tab really isnt on contract in the end.. assuming YMMV of course..

Hmmm.... I'll go into my Store... The guys that work there know all the tricks.
But I still might wait to see what is coming out in a few months. I really like the screen on the Galaxy tab and the price is right... The HTC flyer seems more functional but I will not be dropping 1000 bucks on a Tab. We'lls see.
