It is now available at Samsung e-store, the price of the tablets seems to be high but it is worth for the specification that it is delivering.

Re: Samsung Galaxy TAB 2 P500 launched for Rs.32,990
Samsung Galaxy TAB 2 P500 seems to be a good choice but I am not happy with the camera that it is delivering. I also wanted to add that its battery life might have reduced gradually as it is having 800 x 1280 pixels, 10.1 inches (~149 ppi pixel density) which will be consuming more power. Overall it looks good with the specs that it is delivering but Rs.32,990 for the same brings up a hesitation at least in me.:hmm:
