Huum, check anyway if it pass in roaming mode or not.... I know for most country and UE this is not a problem as it dont cost too much.. But for me in Switzerland, it can come to 2 $ the minute... ( and i dont speak about data ).

I know a lot of friend and family who have got a nice surprise going back from holliday and have not take care of the data ( unlimited amount normally ), and have finish with a roaming paiement who was cost more of their holliday week.

You're welcome!!

Menu Button>>>> System Settings>>>>>>Storage

that will give you all of your storage (SD card, internal etc...)

OR

Hold Home Button>>>>>Task Manager>>>>>RAM(tab)

This will give you your Ram info


OR

There are loads of apps on the play store that will tell you too

I think this blogger base himself on the fact i have not have been annonced for the Note and S2 yet. But as the update 4.04 is pushed this week and is for prepare the 4.1 .. i dont see a reason why it will not get it. ( the screen maybe, but i dont really see why )

@IggyBlack, go look on the LR forum, maybe he have just push it availbe with the LR app downloader ( dont remember the name )

Jelly Bean is coming to life for the S2. I have the US Exynos (SGH-i777) they're working on from this early preview build. General consensus other than HWComposer this thing works great.
