Check out supertab[1], it allows you to use tab for the completion type of 
your choice, tab will work as normal when the cursor is not at the end of a 
word.

As the options suggestion, just add the following to your .vimrc for tab to 
map to omni-completion:
    let g:SuperTabDefaultCompletionType = "<C-X><C-O>"
