SOS: if the iPad at 9.7" fully supported by the advanced iPod/iTunes content environment has no appeal for you, the Samsung Tab will not either. It is designed for the same general mobile entertainment user. Clearly, that does not include you. Probably none of the Android tablets coming to market soon will meet your needs.

Just to clarify: Bell and Telus do not operate a GSM network (aka 2G); they do have a CDMA network. All three carriers -- Rogers, Bell and Telus -- operate an advanced HSPA+ 3G network (21 mbps data). All three carry Samsung devices including the Galaxy S series just coming to market. Given that, it's quite reasonable to think one or all of them will make the Samsung Tab available later this year. I suspect they'll be reasonably popular as a subsidized device.
