The saga of Samsung tablets getting pulled off the shelves in Germany continues. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 is going to be available on Thursday here in the US, but overseas its just been pulled off of Amazon. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 was officially banned in Germany at the beginning of September but the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 hasn’t been through the courts by Apple to see if they can get then banned for sale. It seems that the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 has been removed for sale on their Amazon.de. We received the below email from Amazon explaining that they hoped they would be able to get us our tablet, but it seems that the listing has been deleted.

Here is the official email from Amazon regarding the removal of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 (below is the Google Translated version)
