We still haven't received any new information on the gargantuan Galaxy Note coming to the United States since that AT&T FCC filing, but here's some nice sterile marketing to tide you over. Samsung has released its first TV spot for the new phone, asking consumers the same question the tech press has been pondering since the unveiling at IFA in Berlin: is it a phone or a tablet? We'll let you be the judge.

Samsung is at it again, dropping the kernel source code for more devices and today they've added the Galaxy Note to the list. This awesome device announced back at IFA is a 5.3" Super AMOLED packing smartphone -- or tablet, or whatever you want to call it. While not yet available in the U.S. and may never will be, Samsung has already released the source code for said device.

Speaking to a UK interviewer, a Samsung executive let slip that the upcoming Galaxy Note uberdevice will be targeted at women, not necessarily spec-hungry gadgeteers. Andrew Glass, Sales director for Samsung UK, made no bones about putting women squarely in the marketing crosshairs for the new device. The Galaxy Note's 5.3-inch screen is apparently Samsung's idea of a perfect purse size.

Samsung Mobile Unpacked 2011 Google Episode announced

It's time for some Ice Cream Sandwich. Or at least that's what appears very likely for this October version of Samsung's continuing "Unpacked" series of keynote speeches, each one revealing something monstrously neato each time they appear. This newest episode will take place aside CTIA's Autumn show in San Diego, California, and is specifically titled "Google Episode", this meaning quite possibly that it'll be a rather tasty event, treats galore inside -- could it be Prime time?

Samsung’s Galaxy Note due November claims retailer

Samsung's Galaxy Note smartphone-tablet-hybrid has been pencilled in for a late November release, for the UK at least. According to retailer Clove, the first Galaxy Note stock will come in midway through Q4, with retail price as-yet unconfirmed but expected to be in the region of £500+VAT ($783). That gets you a 5.3-inch 1280 x 800 capacitive touchscreen that recognizes not just finger control but Samsung's bundled digital stylus. Handwriting recognition is supported, along with the ability to annotate screengrabs, notes and other content. Elsewhere it's everything you'd expect from a high-end Android smartphone, so there's an 8-megapixel Full HD video capable camera on the back, a front-facing camera, 3G, WiFi b/g/n and all the usual sensors. A dual-core 1.5GHz processor is inside, keeping things running. More information in our hands-on from the Galaxy Note's debut at IFA 2011 earlier in the month.

This year's IFA 2011 offering from Samsung brought forth a couple of fantastically amazing Galaxy devices, the first of which is the next step in the Galaxy Tab line with a 7.7 offering complete with a full-metal chassis and a Super AMOLED Plus display. The second is a wholly new concept from Samsung, the Samsung Galaxy Note, a new sort of hybrid piece of hardware that takes the largest screen Samsung decided could fit on a still ultra-portable device, complete with a lovely stylus.

Bigger than a Galaxy S II but smaller than a new Galaxy Tab 7.7; offering the latest in capacitive touch but also a stylus; the Samsung Galaxy Note is a device with a few personalities. Intended to pull together phone, paper notebook, games device and tablet into one pen-enabled smart handheld, it's certainly one of the more ambitious gadgets we've seen at IFA 2011.
