XDA Developers Forum member "" managed to that allows the Samsung Galaxy Tab to successfully run Gingerbread. All the hack takes is one downloadable file and an unprotected bootloader that can run . Sadly, it appears to be a little fiddly.
There are minimal instructions on how to run this hack so is best left to more confident tinkerers. It is also still a little buggy, with only basic functions like WiFi, voice calls and 3G data and GPS working fully for most. Though Technomancer and the XDA crew are currently working on the bugs, so stay tuned for an even more stable update or at least make a backup.
