Without the telco how many set do u think they can sell....lile their corby lah or omnia lah....telco give them a least security for booking their set upfront. Samsing always like to spend their money kaw kaw for advertisement compared others...see Sungei Wang area....everywhere u go Samsung..

Ya ya i lupa also highway also....kaw kaw advertisement but forget the customer who want more upgrade with software

Quite difficult until Maxis contract finish then...maybe after Christmas ke?

Im offended with ur post. I will find my way to Lowyat forum owners, and I will get this issue explained face to face.

Dont think ur a moderator you can just simply troll me.

A plus would also be taking away ur tag. You dont know whats the meaning of Troll, you do not simply use it.

And, I am voicing out my opinion in Samsung Galaxy Tab, which are all facts, in the right sub forum.

I challenge you to bring this up to other moderators and see whether I am trolling.
On top is what is defined as Trolling. Please screenshot this as reference for your statement.

BTW, I feel that the price wars should bring down the price of this Galaxy Tab really soon, with Hp, Blackberry, and the rest coming in rreal soon, plus other android tablets such as ones manufactured by Acer

Aiya....why need to argue. Afford to buy,buy aje la. Can't afford,wait for alternative lor.
BTW,there is CSL Tab to choose. It's your choice. No one could stop you.

Now,when is maxis bringing in this? 29 Oct only got stock?

As you might have already heard, the Galaxy Tab is now officially available from Maxis. If you want to take a close look Maxis and Samsung are running a roadshow at Sungei Wang Concourse area this whole weekend.

After that you can purchase the Galaxy Tab will be available at Maxis Centres in KLCC, Pavilion KL, Sunway Pyramid and Taman Tun Dr. Ismail from 25 October onwards.

Nationwide availability at Maxis centres and selected Maxis exclusive partners will be from 29 October onwards.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab retails for RM2,699 outright. Maxis will also be offering contracts for the device — RM1,849 for 12 months and RM1,749 for 24 months.

For contract purchase, you’ll have to subscribe to Maxis Value Plans (Value first, Value Plus 50, 80,150,250 or 500) and a data bundle (500MB, 1.5GB or 3GB).

We’re not sure if you can add two data plans on a Maxis Value Plan. This is a relevant question if you’re on a Maxis iPhone 4 iData contract and would like to get the Galaxy Tab. We’ll try to get an answer for this.

Also, another question that’s burning our brains. Can the Samsung Galaxy Tab be purchased outright from Maxis? We don’t know and there’s no info on this at all, so we’ll try to get an answer for you soon.

Keep it locked on!

buy from maxis straight..no need sign contract.

i have a question.

i'm using maxis prepaid, and don't have data plan.

will there be any limitation of usage the device? any apps that must use 3G? (other than web browser)

If you are using just those normal prepaid card, you can still have data access only is more expensive . Type *136# send to activate 3G
Data rate is :  RM0.10/10kB from 7am-2am & RM0.05/10kB from 2am - 7am
So a monthly usage 500 MB will cost you max RM 50 and one can easily exceed 500 MB, if not careful to monitor

> there are many other apps need 3G besides browser:

- Tweeter feeds
- RSS News feed
- Weather updates
- Currency exchange updates
- Email
- Facebook standalone
- Youtube standalone
- sync ( auto or manual ) your contacts/calendar with Google ( Gmail account )
- Access market to download apps
- Google Maps
- Navigation software : Google Maps
- Messenging : skype, MSN, Yahoo etc
- Google voice actions

OR just use WIFI

u can just use Wifi

but because it is Android, there's no built in way to disable it from using 3G, the thing you can do is to download an app "Network Switcher", or other similar apps to prevent the device from using 3G
