Current generation Galaxy tablets 8.9-inch and 10.1-inch continue to remain absent from retail chains.
Following the success of its Galaxy S and Galaxy S II smartphones, Samsung is now eying an Android tablet supporting fourth generation network technology.
Samsung's mobile division president JK Shin has hinted that the tablet will be released later this year.
"The race for 4G (fourth-generation) has already started," Shin said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal.
