"Due to numerous marketing materials, FCC documents and other leaks, T-Mobile hasn't exactly made it a secret that the Samsung Galaxy Note would be coming to its network sometime soon. We've been begging the company to just come clean about it and confirm the inevitable, and a spokesperson has finally pulled the trigger, announcing on Twitter that it indeed is going to be coming to the lineup. This is unfortunately all the carrier is willing to divulge at this time, however, as we were told in a separate email that it will have \"more details to share in the coming weeks.\" We're now strongly considering a pool on whether or not it'll arrive before a rumored sequel is announced. Update: We've now received official PR, it's after the break. It promises an out of the box experience that includes Android 4.0 ICS, HSPA+ 42, 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S3 CPU and the Premium Suite software upgrades -- pretty much what you'd expect, although there's still nothing in the way of a release date or pricing.  [Thanks, Ramon]Show full PR text      T-Mobile Expands Its Galaxy Lineup With the Samsung Galaxy Note&amp;trade;     Smartphone Delivers Innovative All-in-One Experience With the Perfect Blend of Work and Play Features     BELLEVUE, Wash., - July 17, 2012 - T-Mobile USA, Inc., the No. 1 mobile operator brand in Samsung Galaxy S&amp;trade; sales, and Samsung Telecommunications America (Samsung Mobile), the No. 1 mobile phone provider in the U.S. and the No. 1 smartphone provider worldwide1, today announced the upcoming availability of the Samsung Galaxy Note&amp;trade;. One of T-Mobile's fastest devices leveraging its 4G (HSPA+ 42) network and running on Android&amp;trade; 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and Samsung's Premium Suite, the Galaxy Note provides an innovative, all-in-one experience that is perfect for work, play and everything in between.     Consumers are demanding larger smartphone screen sizes. In fact, a recent T-Mobile survey2 showed 77 percent of consumers prefer a device with a 4.5-inch or larger display rather than a smaller screen. The Galaxy Note speaks directly to that demand with a 5.3-inch HD Super AMOLED&amp;trade; touch screen - the largest screen on a T-Mobile&amp;reg; smartphone. The device is elegantly designed to handle both business and home tasks with ease.     The Galaxy Note with Premium Suite provides a range of productivity-enhancing features, such as the S Pen&amp;trade;, S Note, S Memo&amp;trade; and Polaris Office. Now T-Mobile customers can write notes, to-do lists and annotate documents; share ideas and edited content; and create documents, presentations and spreadsheets to maximize efficiency while on the go. S Note helps to professionalize communications by providing templates for seven commonly used documents such as an idea note, travel notes, diary entry, meeting notes and recipes. S Note also allows you to import and annotate a PDF file and convert dictated or handwritten memos to text with the Continual Voice Input and Handwriting-to-Text features. With S Memo, Galaxy Note users have one-touch access to creating a typewritten, handwritten or voice dictated memo; researching information during creation; and adding an image.     The Galaxy Note also has the SAFE (Samsung Approved for Enterprise&amp;trade;) designation, which means it has a full suite of enterprise-ready features and capabilities, including comprehensive IT policy support for top-tier mobile device management (MDM) providers, on-device AES256-bit encryption, enhanced support for Microsoft Exchange, as well as integrated support for a range of virtual private network (VPN) solutions. The Galaxy Note also provides Wi-Fi Calling capabilities and, with a qualifying rate plan, can act as a Smartphone Mobile HotSpot for up to five devices.     \"In addition to larger screens, today customers demand more from their devices - from having safeguarded access to corporate email and other productivity features to being able to rely on a speedy network for streaming content,\" said Andrew Morrison, vice president, product management, T-Mobile USA. \"With the unique and highly innovative Galaxy Note in our lineup, we are even better equipped to help our customers strike the perfect balance as they juggle both professional and personal activities.\"     The Samsung Galaxy Note also offers the T-Mobile 4G Pro App Pack, an aggregation of key applications, such as Dropbox, Evernote, Square, TripIt, CamScanner and LinkedIn, that can reduce the complexity and effort associated with finding and downloading business-related applications. By providing an easy path to cloud services such as Dropbox and Evernote, T-Mobile helps professionals easily store and access the documents, files, images and notes that will help them better manage their work from virtually anywhere.     Featuring a snappy Qualcomm&amp;reg; Snapdragon&amp;trade; S3 Processor with 1.5 Ghz Dual-Core CPUs, the Galaxy Note provides customers with incredible 4G experiences, making it the perfect all-in-one device to maximize efficiency and productivity, in addition to fun. The Galaxy Note offers a variety of entertainment experiences, such as T-Mobile TV in mobile HD3 for watching live TV programming, Samsung Media Hub for renting and buying the latest movies and TV shows, and Google Play Music for streaming and purchasing music.
