Slight update. I see that Phonesource-USA sells two year warranties for around $27 but service is handled through a third party (details below). While this is a good price, I have no experience attempting to get warranty service from this third party. Since the phone you purchase must be returned to the correct service station (for example, Hong Kong, for Sony Ericsson phones), your repaired phone might take weeks to fix and return to you. It's a risk you take purchasing a phone intended for the U.K., Europe or Asia.
From Phonesource-USA FAQ's:
The phone does NOT come with any warranty as the phones are imported from Europe or Asia. However, we offer a 24 month warranty through www.cpscentral.com . If you do not purchase the warranty, then you need to contact the manufacturer in the phone's country of origin for service. If you do purchase the warranty, then you need to contact CPS for service. Please do not contact us regarding the warranty as we have no access to any warranty information, nor do we have any relationships with the phone manufacturers to facilitate the repair.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1, much like its Limited Edition sibling that we reviewed last month, is ever-so-slightly thinner than the iPad 2, a slate that most sane individuals (and competitors, for that matter) would confess is the market leader today.
