Okay, okay, it’s not exactly iPad numbers, but it’s certainly enough to secure the company a number two spot in the ever more crowded consumer tablet space. Samsung’s Galaxy Tab hit the two million mark in its first three months (Apple sold 7 million in the same time period, for those keeping, you know, tabs…).
Not too shabby for a seven-inch Android tablet–especially considering the fact that Google has yet to officially release Honeycomb, the first tablet-optimized version of the open operating system (we saw a preview of it on Motorola’s Xoom tablet during CES, but that’s about it).
Samsung’s sales figures have been fueled, in part, by global availability. The tablet is available in Europe, North America, and Asia at present.
