More dope on Samsung Galaxy Tab-may have phone capabilities

 

Samsung’s Galaxy Tab has reportedly hit the (US) FCC for clearance under the name “SHW-M180S” and it has been described in the commission’s documentation as “GPRS Mini-Tablet with Bluetooth and WLAN”. If the Samsung’s upcoming tablet has been correctly identified here then it means that Galaxy Tab will have dual-band 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi, capable of speeds up to 150Mbps. Also, Global Certification Forum lists a “GT-P1000” by Samsung Electronics with GSM and HSDPA capabilities.

Meanwhile, Engadget did some digging of their own and have reported another possible suspects in devices listed as “GT-P1000T" and a "GT-P1000L” in the WiFi Alliance database, which suggests that the Galaxy Tab may have multiple versions.
