Samsung Galaxy Tab is pricing out to be expensive…or is it?

The highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy Tab has pricing numbers equivalent to that of a Six Flags roller coaster lately.  We have seen rumors from $200-400 in the U.S. with contract, and up to over $1000 in Germany unlocked.  Now we have news from Clove, an independent retailer in Europe confirming the price to be around £600 – which converts to about $760 dollars U.S.

We aren’t certain if that is with or without contract yet, but hopefully without.  If it is, I guess that’s the price to pay for being an early adopter, just keep in mind, the price wars haven’t even begun, and there are a lot of contestants looking to get into the tablet market race.
