In that sense, Cricket is also offering a special bundle which includes the Crosswave, their MiFi-like device and a first month of Cricket broadband service, all for $594.99.

It is available on Cricket’s broadband plans that range from $45 to $65 per month per plan…

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 comes with a 10.1-inch 1280×800 pixels touchscreen, 16GB of internal storage, rear and front-facing cameras…
