Shipping tablet from abroad

If you could snag a GSM version of the tablet then it should work with our networks in the UK (we use GSM frequencies 900 and 1800 for 2G and 2100ish for 3G). If it's CDMA it won't work.
 
The T-Mobile USA Tab has the 2100MHz 3G band while the AT&T one does not. Also the T-Mobile Galaxy Tab has the front facing camera while the AT&T one does not. So, get the T-Mobile one if you want 3G in the UK and a front-facing camera.
 
If you buy from someone who will declare it as a gift it should be ok. I have been buying stuff from people in the US for a long time now. If you buy it from a shop though, they might not want to declare the goods as a gift.
