Today as, luck would have it, I'm working on a Vodafone internal conference in Manchester, uk. So i took the opportunity to quiz the Handset manager about the expected date for the SGSii. He told me it wont be out with them until June!! and nether will the Tab 10.1v if correct this is bad news. most rivals will be out long before and the Iphone 5 launch will follow shortly.

I'm event more determined to take a look at the Eee Pad Transformer tomorrow in place of the tab. I will wait on the phone for now, but ill be looking around at rivals!

I have to add in a disclaimer thought: from the conference Vodafone have linked up with HTC and he as pushing them so there could be conflicting interests causing this delay with voda! ( or he could be lying to me in the hope I get a HTC!!! )
