Samsung confirmed on Friday what has been suspected: the Galaxy Tab tablet PC that it earlier said would ship during Q3 2010 will be Android-powered.

A Samsung executive announced in June that the company would begin selling a tablet named the Galaxy Tab in Q3. However, the executive did not announce that OS would be on the tablet. Based on the names of Samsung’s current Galaxy S smartphones, it was an obvious guess that the device would run Android, but it was still a guess.

On Friday, however, Samsung confirmed to Reuters that the Galaxy Tab would run Android, althogh it is unclear if that would be Android 2.1 or 2.2. The device, shown above via a leaked image, will have a 7″ screen, forward and rear-facing cameras, GPS, wi-fi, AMOLED screen, and TouchWiz UI. The all-important price is still not known.

It’s begun. First came the Nexus One, which Google promised would be the first Android phone to get Froyo. Earlier this week, Sprint announced it would release Froyo on the Evo 4G, with client-initiated updates starting today. Now, we have confirmation from Motorola that the original Droid will get Froyo next week.

To be exact, the forum post by Motorola confirms a rumor that came earlier in the day. The post notes that OTA updates to the venerable device will begin the week of August 2nd. That would be the same week that the Evo 4G will start getting OTA update notifications (as opposed to client-initiated updates).

The post went further and says that some small set of users might see updates as early as Friday night, as a test run. However, it was noted that “test roll-out” was not confirmed.

The Evo 4G and Droid are the first in what will probably become a flood of Froyo updates for devices. Our only question now is: where’s the Droid X’s update?
