Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 Student Edition Bundle officially hits stores tomorrow, yours for $250 until Sept.1st

[![][1] ][2]

After [leaking early][3] and then being [sold ahead of schedule][4] at Best Buy, Samsung's [Galaxy Tab 2 7.0][5] Student Edition Bundle -- yes, that's really its full moniker -- now has a confirmed street date. Starting tomorrow, $250 the bundle (which includes a 8GB version of the tablet finished in glossy white, a keyboard dock and USB peripheral connector) will be available for purchase until September 1st at Best Buy, Tiger Direct, Fry's Electronics, Amazon, and Costco. Specs-wise this Android 4.0 slate skinned with TouchWiz isn't exactly up to par with the venerable $200 [Nexus 7][6], but it's still a potential step up from B&N's [recently discounted][7] Nook Tablets. Beyond that, it also stands out by packing an IR-blaster, microSD card slot and two cameras -- and lest we forget to mention that this particular GTab itself is _normally _$250. Hit up the press release after the break if your interests are piqued enough to consider hitting the halls with this bundle.
