Try this if the tablet is constantly rebooting. Insert the USB cable into the PC but only partially into the table. When the screen blanks, quickly hold down both the vol up and down buttons and plug the cable the rest of the way in. That should put you in the download mode to re-flash the ROM with Odin.

I have bootlooped the A8 plenty of times and it really is just holding the buttons down at the right time as RamenGOD described. Having the device plugged into the computer definitely can help you get it into the download mode a bit easier. Just saying don't give up, it's not lost.
