Best Buy price drop on Sprint’s Galaxy Tab

With announcements of Android tablets and phones hitting a fever pitch at CES, manufacturers and retailers need to do something to keep moving product. Best Buy’s solution has always been drastic price drops, to which the Galaxy Tab is not immune to.

Leaked internal information out of Best Buy today suggests that Sprint’s Galaxy Tab will undergo a $100 price drop for customers looking to purchase on a new two-year contract. The new pricing break-down goes like this:

Two-year contract – $299
No contract, month to month – $499
Retail – $549

No word yet on if this price will be reflected by Sprint as well – As of right now Sprint.com still shows the Tab at $399, but so does Best Buy.

$100 is a lot of money off, but two years of technology time might as well be the rest of your life. Is this enough to make you buy a Galaxy Tab? Let us know in the comments below and we’ll be sure to keep an eye out as this continues to develop.

"With announcements of Android tablets and phones hitting a fever pitch at CES, manufacturers and retailers need to do something to keep moving product." Yup. Sure not about giving us a break, or expanding the market. It's about cleaning out the warehouse for the new models. It's frustrating. I'm stuck holding out for a Tegra phone AND Tegra tablet. No, wait, I'm not on the tablet express yet, so confusing, on my.

That is a good price but I'll still be waiting for the next round of tablets that will hopefully start out with Honeycomb.
