    AFAIK, the Galaxy Tab s2 is up for release this month. Whats the likelyhood of a drop in price for the old(current) tab s and any guesses when that will start happening?

    great but very limited deal. 8.4 versions were sold within a day of the offer . You were lucky, but there did seem to be a lot more 10.5 versions in gamestop.

    8.4 is as big a screen as i am willing to go.

    When you have a 5.5" phone like myself, 10.5" makes sense ;)

    Well when I checked this morning. All Dublin shops were sold out of the 10.5" while Henry St had 7/8 of 8.4" left in stock for 175e.

    Called into Stephens green gamestop today and got an 8.4. They had 2 back in Stock.
    179 euros plus 17 euros for level 3 membership. Could do without the membership but still well worth it.

    Brand new, not a refurbished model.

    Buying it is not required. The free card works too.

    I asked. They wouldn't give the tablet at discount without buying the card. Either the shop you got yours in had it wrong, or the shop I was in got it wrong, but it was still A good deal

    If you read the thread you'll see the card did not need to be purchased. Some shops were just taking advantage of the situation. :cool:

    Anyone move from an iPad to one of these?

    I've used Android smartphones for years but tried an Android tablet a couple of years ago and was missing a couple of apps, magazines etc from my iPad

    There was an 8.4 left in Waterford as of last night.

    Anyone recommend a cover with flip stand for the 10.5 - the official one seems a bit expensive? (equivalent of iPad Smart Cover)
