Like the Galaxy S III before it, Samsung has just announced that the new Galaxy Note II will indeed hit all five major U.S. carriers – AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular, and Verizon Wireless – by the middle of this November.Fine, I admit it, the company’s still being pretty vague here. As usual, Samsung has left it up to the carriers to announce exactly when the new-fangled phablet will hit their respective store shelves, but rest easy – those announcements are bound to start trickling out any minute now. There’s also no official word on pricing (on contract or otherwise), but if the original is any indicator the Note II should launch with a price tag between $249 and $299.
