We told you last week that Verizon was going to start carrying Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 10.1 in July, and it looks like we’ve got even more news coming your way regarding the iPad 2′s big competitor.

Samsung has now made it official that the tablet will be available in the UK in both 3G and Wifi variations on August 4th, 2011 in stores across the UK. Launching with Android’s newest Honeycomb OS (3.1) and a dual-core Nvidia Tegra 2 processer, the UK version will also rock an HSPA 3G radio, or if you’re in the US, 4G.

Check out the links above to remind yourself about all that is the Galaxy Tab 10.1, and then tell us, will you be picking one up? Or are you waiting for the next, next big thing?
