U.S. Cellular Getting Galaxy Tab, TooPosted by: Scott WebsterOctober 28, 2010In case you haven't picked up on it yet, it's Galaxy Tab week.  Yet another carrier has come out to formally announce they will be offering the 7-inch, Android 2.2 tablet.  The latest to add their name to the growing list of providers is U.S. Cellular.  Samsung Mobile issued a press release this morning stating that the nation's sixth largest wireless operator will be offering the tablet although exact pricing and availability has not been finalized.  Look for U.S. Cellular to carry the Galaxy Tab for the same $400 price point as the other players.  I'd even go so far as to expect it in the middle of November, around the same time as the bigger carriers.
