Summary: The Samsung Galaxy Tab, which became real last week when the first image surfaced, might pose an even bigger threat to iPad sales should it become available in multiple sizes as rumored.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab, which became real last week when the first image surfaced, might pose an even bigger threat to iPad sales should it become available in multiple sizes as rumored.

According to Samsung Hub (a blog, not an official corporate site), the aforementioned 7-inch model will be released in August, followed by 8-inch and 10-inch editions in October and December, respectively. The last one seems remarkably late if they want to take advantage of the holiday shopping season, but we’re not even sure where this is going to be released at that time yet anyway.

This is all based on a Korea Herald report with a link that is being blocked with a Google malware notice, so click at your own risk.

No prices or additional specs seem to have been announced either. Again, this hasn’t been officially confirmed by Samsung, so its all speculation until we know more.

But does the option of multiple tablet sizes pique your interest in the Galaxy Tab?
