Samsung has announced that it will be releasing a special edition Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, entitled the Student Edition. The device will be available in white, as part of a bundle package containing loads of goodies to get any student up on their feet and ready for the next semester.

At last AT&T’s LTE version of the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (SGH-I497) is the next device on Samsung’s list to receive the Android 4.1.2 update.

Since the tablet launched on AT&T’s network back in November, 2012, supporting 4.0 Jelly Bean which was only about a year out of date, it seems almost fitting that the 4.1 update is coming almost a year after Jelly Bean was introduced on the Nexus 7.

Samsung’s Galaxy 2 tablets (7.0 and 10.1) were originally scheduled to launch in the UK in March, but seeing as March has come and gone, it appears they have been delayed. A Samsung associate has confirmed the delay and points to Android 4.0 as the culprit. According to the associate, Samsung needed more time to work on the Ice Cream Sandwich version of the Android mobile operating system. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 is now scheduled to hit store in the UK sometime this month with a global rollout to follow.
