The one downside, the vide is short coming in at just 1 minute and 29 seconds. But hey, the… Full Story » | Written by Robert Nelson for . | Comment on this Article »

As you may have heard, Verizon is releasing a new version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 which supports LTE, so it should have a SIM card. That’s pretty explanatory since Verizon will obviously provide this SIM card. But what’s interesting to know, which we just learned is that Verizon will be releasing the Tab 10.1 LTE version with a micro SIM card instead of the regular-sized one.
