European customers will probably get to see the tablets earlier

Yesterday I brought you news saying one of Samsung’s latest Galaxy NotePRO tablet might be arriving in Europe, February 7.

But apparently an unnamed Samsung source speaking to RootzWiki claimed customers in the US can expect to see the Samsung’s Galaxy TabPRO series and the Galaxy NotePRO go on sale on Valentine’s Day (February 14).

The insider also mentioned that Samsung employees would not going to be allowed time off between the dates of 2/14 and 2/16, so indicating the tech giant expects to sell a lot of tablets in the first few days.

Nothing was mentioned of pricing, but European rates were leaked a while ago in the press and they go as follows:

• Samsung Galaxy TabPRO 8.4, Wi-Fi: €389 ($389?) • Samsung Galaxy TabPRO 8.4, LTE: €519 ($519?) • Samsung Galaxy TabPRO 10.1, Wi-Fi: €479 ($479?) • Samsung Galaxy TabPRO 10.1 LTE: €609 ($609?) • Samsung Galaxy TabPRO 12.2, Wi-Fi: €649 ($649?) • Samsung Galaxy TabPRO 12.2, LTE: €749 ($749?) • Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2, Wi-Fi: €749 ($749?) • Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2, LTE: €849 ($849?)

Yesterday’s news also indicated the Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 (Wi-Fi model) will be selling for €749 / $1,024 in Europe, so it appears we're not far from the truth. So is it possible Europeans will be getting the chance to grab the slates a week earlier?
