Last month we reported that Samsung was prepared to start pushing updates to almost all of their tablets in the Galaxy Tab family to Android version 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. While the US is still waiting it looks like one of the first up is Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 7.7 over in Germany and Austria.

Samsung stated that they’d start pushing the software updates out to multiple tablets in the month of July, and now just a few days deep we are seeing the first one. This is good news and hopefully will continue on to other parts of Europe, and the world. Multiple users are reporting the update to Android 4.0.4 ICS has arrived for their 7.7′s and they are already enjoying it.

Sadly the update probably won’t be coming that quick for the Verizon model as they are usually last on the list, but you never know. Reports are confirming the update is arriving over the air (OTA) as well as being available on Samsung Kies. If you have a Samsung tablet it would be a pretty good idea to start checking Kies every few days this month, and we’ll be sure to update as we hear more details.

If you’ve received the update we’d love to hear your thoughts on performance in the comments below.
