If you're into powerful smartphones then listen up. The Samsung Galaxy S II which is now packing a dual-core 1.2GHz CPU will be available in the UK starting on May 1st. You can bet that the prices will be extremely expensive if you're looking to get this one unlocked because it's one of the best that you'll find out there. Us North Americans will likely have to wait a bit longer - especially Canadians.

Acer's upcoming Windows 7 powered tablet is actually up on B&H if you're interested. This tablet is the Iconia W500 and it packs a 10.1-inch display with a 1,280 x 800 resolution, dual cameras, 2GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, AMD Radeon HD 6250 graphics, a 1GHz AMD Fusion APU, and an HDMI output. This is actually pretty good because it's priced at $549 and it comes with the keyboard dock so it'll double as a netbook if you want.

Sadly, the 3-cell battery is only set to last for 6 hours which actually kind of sucks. Of course, Windows 7 isn't the most tablet-friendly OS out there. Check it out at B&H and remember that it's shipping by April 15th.
