Samsung officials at the 2011 CES event introduced a WiFi-only Galaxy Tab, the Galaxy Player and the Samsung Infuse 4G, all slated for launch later this year.

LAS VEGAS -- Samsung executives confirmed that the company will release the long-awaited WiFi-only version of the popular Samsung Galaxy Tab in the United States in the first quarter of this year.

No launch date or pricing has been determined for the WiFi-only Tab.

Samsung Mobile Chief Strategy Officer Omar Khan unveiled the device and showed off the Samsung Galaxy Player and the Samsung Infuse 4G smartphone at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show here Jan. 5.

The WiFi-only Tab comes months after Samsung launched the Android 2.2-based tablet with both 3G and WiFi capabilities, countering Apple's own WiFi+3G on AT&T.

The Tab has sold more than 1.5 million units to date, Khan said, a revision over the 1 million-unit shipment number Samsung offered just a few weeks ago.
