AT&T Galaxy Note coming February 18th

BGR reports that AT&T will start selling their variant of the Galaxy Note on February 18th. It will cost $299.99 with a two year contract. That is a little higher than I would have hoped but it is, after all, a small tablet.

The big difference with AT&T’s Galaxy Note is the ability to get blazing fast data speeds on their new 4G LTE network. There is also a small GHz upgrade on the CPU from 1.4 GHz to 1.5 GHz. The actual chipset inside is still up for debate. The original model has a Samsung built Exynos processor but it is rumored that the AT&T variant has a Qualcomm built Snapdragon processor. Either way this phone is fast and deserves to be in your daily driver.

3G Galaxy Tab 10.1 ICS ROM

Another XDA member has compiled a CyanogenMod 9 ROM. The big difference this time is working 3G on 3G Galaxy Tab 10.1s. There is a bug where the signal bars do not display any signal, but the 3G data should still work. Like the other KANG CyanogenMod 9 ROMs, the camera is broken. So Skype video calls definitely will not work on that ROM.

Again this is for 3G models of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 (GT-P7500). If you decide to use this ROM make sure to make a backup in ClockworkMod before wiping and flashing.

Galaxy Note receiving minor OTA update

No, this is not the Ice Cream Sandwich update we have been waiting for. Instead, it is a 70 MB update bringing a few new features. The first update is to the keyboard. Now there is a fifth row for numbers and an option to make the keyboard smaller for one handed typing. Next is some minor visual changes to the lockscreen. It should also be slightly easier to unlock after the update. Samsung also added a new widget to toggle the LED light. The last of the notable changes is an option to change the brightness of the screen while using the browser independently from the brightness of the screen normally.

Have you gotten the update yet?

Rumor: Galaxy Note to find its way to Verizon and Sprint as Galaxy Journal

This is definitely not the first time that different carriers had different names for virtually the same device. The latest rumors indicate that the Galaxy Note will be found on Verizon and Sprint later this year. They may also carry the name Galaxy Journal instead of Galaxy Note.

According to an “industry analyst” that spoke with the Examiner, the device is “certainly” coming to Verizon and Sprint during the first half of the year, potentially as the Galaxy Journal.

AT&T has already announced its variant of the Galaxy Note. Would you like to see more carriers offer this 5.3 inch hybrid device?

Galaxy Tab 7.0N Plus announced

A new version of the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus was just announced at CES. This version is called Galaxy Tab 7.0N Plus. Just like the Galaxy Tab 10.1N, it has a slightly different hardware design with the same basic specs. It was manufactured to sell in countries where Apple and Samsung have ongoing legal battles to circumvent any import bans.

So what is different about the Galaxy Tab 7.0N Plus? It has forward facing speakers that are visible. This will make the tablet sound louder and clearer (probably).

It costs €600 and comes in white and gray.
