Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus Wi-Fi clears FCC and priced

So the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus has a Wi-Fi only version coming out soon. It has just cleared the FCC and is up for pre-order on J&R for only $399. That $399 will buy you a pretty impressive seven inch slate. It packs a 1.2 GHz Dual Core chip, 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage.

The specs fairly decent, but are a huge disappointment compared to the Galaxy Tab 7.7. The 7.7 rocks a Super AMOLED Plus display with an HD resolution, while the Plus is stuck with the same resolution as the orignal Galaxy Tab.

Are you interested in the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus, or just frustrated that its the Galaxy Tab 7.7?

Now hiring part-time writers

GalaxyTabs.com is in need for a few part-time writers. We are looking for three to five new writers to come up with a few posts a month each. Currently the budget is $5 a post for 200-300 words. We can only afford to pay for twenty posts total (for all the writers) a month so this is definitely a part-time gig. All payments will be made through PayPal on the first day of each month.

So what are we looking for in a writer?

A love for technology, especially the Galaxy Tab line, is a must. That takes much higher priority over a skilled author. As long as you can write without spelling or grammar errors, then you are good. You must also own a Galaxy Tab, for obvious reasons.

What will set you apart?

Even though being a strong writer is not required, it always helps. Experience using CMS or blogging software such as WordPress, Joomla, or Drupal. A digital camera or camcorder could come in handy for some types of posts.

What types of posts will you be required to write?

The same type of posts that you see here already – news, App of the Week, reviews, and more.

How do you apply?

Just shoot an email to contact@galaxytabs.com with your name, age, two tech related posts (200-300 words), and a little about yourself.

Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus vs Kindle Fire

The Kindle Fire and the Galaxy Tab 7.0 are similar in many aspects. But at the same time they do not share the same market. One huge reason is the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus is going to run on T-Mobile’s 3G network and the Kindle Fire can only run on Wi-Fi. Having cellular radios alone would bump the price up $100 or more, but the Kindle Fire runs for the extremely affordable price of $199.

UPDATE: There will be a Wi-Fi version of the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus.

Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus gets official with specs

We heard about the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus last week, but now Samsung has decided to make an official announcement. The specs are inbetween the original Galaxy Tab 7 and the Galaxy Tab 7.7 announced at IFA.

It is powered by a 1.2 GHz dual-core cpu coupled with 1 GB of RAM. There will be both a 16 GB anad 32 GB model with microSD support. Obviously the screen is 7 inches, hence the name, but the resolution is the same as the original Galaxy Tab (1024 x 600). It will be rocking Android 3.2 with TouchWiz UX though which is a plus. The front camera is 2 MP and the back is 3 MP with auto focus and LED flash.
