What is believed to be the Samsung Galaxy Tab has been spotted in the wild. It was seen in the hands of a telco employee who was using it at a train station in Sydney, Australia. The employee who was using the Android tablet declined to provide any detailed information on the device, but it’s physical appearance did resemble the official description of the Samsung tablet.

The few details that this employee would offer up was that it was “awesome” and that it was “different” when compared to the Apple iPad. The Samsung tablet comes with a 7-inch display screen, supports 3G network connections and includes a strong user interface with indications being that it is powered by a 1GHz ARM processor.

The fact that we have begun to see the Samsung Galaxy Tab in the wild is a strong indication that user testing may be in the works and that Samsung could very well be finalizing deals with global mobile carriers to subsidize the device with a 3G service contract. Vodafone will definitely carry the Android tablet in the UK and possibly also Australia. Other possible carriers include Telstra and Optus. Within the US, Verizon is a possible candidate.
