As expected, Samsung has started rolling out Android 2.3 Gingerbread updates for the Galaxy Tab in the UK. We’re not sure whether everyone can get it at the moment, but as far as we know, it requires Samsung’s Kies software for the update process to take place. That said, it’s safe to bet over-the-air updates will follow shortly.

You’re most likely already familiar with all the software changes included in Gingerbread; they are worth repeating, nonetheless. Among the things you should expect are improved power management capabilities, better Copy/Paste, support for SIP-based VoIP calls, downloads management and so on.

As usual, we advise you to backup your most important information like contacts and calendars in the cloud or locally at your PC (or Mac). Moreover, you should make sure your battery is fully charged before proceeding. If everything is in place, “push the button” and take it from there. ;)
