Americans who
picked up a Samsung tablet in 2012 may have a surprise this weekend: the
company has confirmed that it's rolling out its promised Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update to US,
Wi-Fi only versions of the Galaxy Note 10.1 and both Galaxy Tab 2 sizes. As we know by now, Note
10.1 owners squeeze the most out of the software revamp with S Pen features
borrowed from the Galaxy Note II, such as Air
View's hover-to-peek functionality, Quick Command shortcuts and the ability to
clip content. There's also a tablet-specific Cascade View to see more than two
apps at once. Galaxy Tab 2 users don't get much as much in the bargain,
although we wouldn't knock the promised speed improvements inherent to Google's
OS refresh. Either upgrade should be available both through Kies and over the
air, with more details at the source link. We haven't yet heard when cellular
tablets get a matching upgrade, although those who spring for the Galaxy Note 10.1 on Verizon
will already have Jelly Bean from the outset. [Engadget]
