Samsung outs 8.9 Tab with LTE

 It is raining LTE enabled devices this week and the latest device announced as 'Coming Sooni is the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 LTE. The latest member of Samsung’s tablet family sports an 8.9” screen and promises better mobility and a longer battery for extended on-the-go use. We've seen the 8.9 Tab and like it better than the 10.1 inch variant because it feels more portable even if it is just as fast, we expect it to be cheaper too.

The Galaxy Tab 8.9 supports the latest data network (LTE) providing super fast download and upload speeds. A personalized home-screen, mini apps tray, and office oriented software come pre-loaded as do special “Hubs” dedicated to social networking, e-reading and music.
