I see these advertiised associated with cell phone carriers. I'd like to have a 7 inch tablet that I can take to the Philippines and connect to internet over there via their cell networks: Globe, Smart, Sun etc. I can connect over there with my netbook and a little USB gizmo that picks up the Smart signal... a "Smart Bro". I buy "load" by the 100s pesos increments. Would one of these Samsung galaxy Tablets work for my needs to connect to internet on a network other than the USA cell networks?

Hi Jim... Your TABLET can make DATA connections? WiFi YES, but DATA? I'll go with it. Get Text-Free, makes calls & Text msgs. Requires a few seconds to review a site or app, but it gives around 150 minutes for each one. FireChat, permits the TABLET to transmit "in the cloud", NO CONNECTION NECESSARY, *BUT*, both SENDER & RECEIVER need the FireChat app. MUSTACHE, permits ANONYMOUS TEXT MESSAGES, & it gives you a PHONE # too!! Message anyone & ONLY YOU need the MUSTACHE app. I found my # by texting myself, & it came as the NAME OF CONTACT.
Let me try calling it... NO, TEXT ONLY.
Finally, Text Free gives you the Dial & Msg. But GOOGLE VOICE works just fine, CALLS and TEXT MSGS.
I hope this helps you!!
TO CONNECT TO INTERNET ABROAD, TRY WhatsApp..
