nice, the 7.7 is a really solid Tablet offering. ICS will make that Exynos truly shine.

Note to Samsung : Please redo your kies software it sucks
And please deliver your updates OTA like HTC

This is a disaster. I have not been able to get Kies to work for me on three different Windows machines! It always disconnects the USB as the download is starting!

Kies DOES NOT WORK!!!
