I hope this includes the GT-P3113 model and is not just referring to the 'new ' GT2 7.0 model that Verizon is offering.
The Verizon model has a different processor which may mean that more work by Samsung is needed in order to port JB for the older models.

It's confusing that several models of the GT2 is out there.
Some supposed 'reporter type' should ask that Samsung clarify the list of 'GT models ' that will receive the JB update.

The latest promotion of the 'student edition' of the P3113 gives me hope, but not quite full confidence yet.

Luck to all.

If anything, I would expect the P3113 to get JB before the carrier versions. For one, its been out longer and they've had more time to work on it. And then there's the fact that because its Wi-fi only, they don't need to run the build past the carriers' testing. They are more in control of the upgrade timeline on the P3113.
