I thought everyone is unsure of when it will hit Verizon cuz of not having a LTE radio in it. Hopefully so since the OG bionic is dead the targa will come out bwggining of q3. I can't wait for the s2. I know samsung's Rep with updates. 'S bad but I have a Sammy laptop and it has been the best laptop I've seen for price. And I see a lot cuz I'm in IT
Good point, but I'm hoping Samsung has learned enough about LTE radios from the Charge and their VzW hotspot to build one into the GS2 SOC. If the Bionic is indeed dead, and the Targa a December phone, there's a BIG fat hole in VzW's high-end device stable that would be beneficial to both parties for Samsung to fill sooner rather than later.
EDIT: One last thought: If the stories are true that the Tegra 2 -- or the SOC it comes with -- has issues with LTE, it's possible that the US-bound Exynos 4210 and its SOC doesn't have that problem, which could motivate VzW and Samsung to get the GS2 into the channel while Nvidia et al. figure out how to correct their issues (which could take months).
