Several wireless carriers plan to offer Samsung's Galaxy Tab starting in November, but none before T-Mobile, which today announced it will begin selling Samsung's upcoming slate on November 10, 2010.

"Customers want richer, deeper interactions with entertainment and online content through connected, portable mobile broadband devices that are small enough to carry and big enough to share with friends and family," said Jeremy Korst, director of broadband products and services, T-Mobile USA. "T-Mobile’s unique offerings on the Galaxy Tab paired with the power of T-Mobile’s new network allow us to bring a truly differentiated portable entertainment offering to market."

We've covered the Galaxy Tab ad nauseum up to this point so we won't rehash the specs, but will point out that T-Mobile will offer the device starting at $400 with a 2-year service agreement on a qualifying broadband plan. For the sake of comparison, here's how the Galaxy Tab breaks down with other carriers and distributors:

• Sprint: $400 with 2-year data plan, available November 14
• Verizon: $600 outright (no data plan required), November 11
• Best Buy: $500 outright (Wi-Fi only), no announced release date
