WiFi Samsung Galaxy Tab has Older CPU, Slower GPU?

Quote:
Perhaps as cost-saving measure, the WiFi-only Galaxy Tab is using a “1GHz A8 Cortex processor” according to the official product page”, while the 3G equipped version of the Galaxy Tab is using a “C110, 1GHz, Cortex A8 Hummingbird” processor.

Both devices are using 1GHz A8 CPUs, but the 3G equipped version of the Galaxy Tab uses the PowerVR SGX 540 GPU while the WiFi only version is using the previous generation.
Seems rather odd. Maybe Samsung sees the 3G Tab as more like an iPhone 4 (top line components), and the wifi version more like an iPod Touch (cheaper components)
