Samsung have re-assured anyone buying the Note that they will soon get it updated from Gingerbread to Ice Cream Sandwich. What benefits will that bring to the note?

Where did you get that information?
Curious too. What does "soon" mean?
Android Authority posted it here. Not sure if Android Authority really have "authoritative" sources as I don't see any official announcement from Samsung.
I guess "soon" is a little too optimistic. I guess we have to wait a few months until we'll see the ICS on the Note. The only thing that we know for sure is that both the Note and the SGS2 will receive ICS, as Samsung declared... officially.
I have read a news that Samsung have confirmed this via their official twitter page from Italy...
Kiss my Tab!
Also, newspapers in Norway are quoting official Samsung resources saying this...
BTJ
I remember reading the update will be 2nd quarter next year...
Kiss my Tab!

It should be obvious that the Galaxy Note will get ISC update. This is only logical and you do not need any official confirmation to know it would get the update/upgrade. I think the question is when? I'm surprised that alot of us bother ourselves about this obvious fact.
thats a bad news, while in six months i will have a other phone.. hope to get a update in the next two max. three months.

You speak about obvious facts, but I haven't seen an official Samsung "fact" anywhere.
I just see rumors everywhere, repeated by various blogs that read each-other. (and need some traffic)
There has been (as it seems, but also not confirmed, just a rumor) a statement from Samsung Italy on an (not official) Italian blog, and this blog has revised its message since then.
Sure, I would like to have ICS on my Note, but I don't get my hopes up.
And I don't understand why everyone speaks about "facts" while there is no fact to be found.
It a fact when there is an Official Statement from Samsung on a Samsung operated website.
And I also want that to appear. But it hasn't.
(and my personal guess is that ICS will NOT come on this Note, but on the next, but I hope I am wrong)

Are they quoting a statement that can be read on an official Samsung website or press release? Or are they just repeating the rumors that appeared on some blogs??
Maybe you find me annoying that I question this ICS on our beloved Note, but I really want an Official statement...
During the official presentation of Galaxy Note for the Italian market Samsung (Italia) has confirmed in an interview with Telefonino.net that the Note will have ICS in 2012 for sure.
However they didn't say when (could be in January as well as in December...).

The most important benefit will be the ability to run tablet apps ie apps optimized for tablet resolutions. Ics has some other nice things too - Data monitoring, hardware acceleration, offline google mail searching, and etc etc

ICS has native pen support.
ICS uses 1280x800 as desired resolution..
what makes you think the Note won't get it ?
hopefully when ICS is released and we see some Note kernel source
(I don't have my note yet, so haven't started looking)
we can start to port it across, lets see if we can beat samsung
i hope so, it would be a great thing to see it as soon as possible..

Phone Arena quotes Android Authority, and this "authority" bases itself on a rumor. (the rumor on this Italian blog that has since its first publication of this rumor tempered down the statement.)
NO confirmation, Alex.

Yesterday, I was just simply looking for ICS ROMs. But I don't really know the exact differences from android 3.2. Could someone tell me the differences between ICS and Honeycomb?
HC3.2 exist, ICS don't as yet for our tab...
Some developement for ICS but not a usable everyday rom available...
Really .. YOU REALLY HAD TO ASK THIS..
Honeycomb.
A honeycomb is a mass of hexagonal wax cells built by honey bees in their nests to contain their larvae and stores of honey and pollen
IceCream
An ice cream sandwich is a frozen confection composed of a layer of ice cream, usually vanilla[citation needed] (but not necessarily), "sandwiched" between two biscuits/cookies or slices of cake, usually chocolate.

Erica doesn't wear Knickers.... trust me
OMG Pick on Erica Day.
Giggles..
Im so sorry NOBBIE.
kiss kiss ..
But Really the difference is clearly written out in my post.. i search the internet for the meaning of each..
SO BLAME IT ON THE WEB..
not the messenger..
and nobody on this forum have any idea about my nickers . Trust me.. Especially any men .. EEEEKKKKKK..
WELCOME TO XDA NOBBIE .
hmm lets see if we're talking generalized changes from 3.x to 4.x then theres too many to count.
highlights of the OS are it's built for dual core optimization
it unify's the OS both phones and tablets will run 4.x
optimization of the cpu/gpu and better memory management
Far better battery life (atleast when compared to 2.1/2.2/2.3 tests based off personal experience with Galaxy S phone)
Better User Interface IMO though this one is hit or miss, you like it or hate it.
it adds alot of the customizations i've grown fond of in CM and Miui but keeps a more Stock look.
BIGGER as far as the phone rom goes it's almost 2x the size of Gingerbread. haven't looked as rom file comparisons coming from honeycomb to ics though.
And thats about all i can think of without running it on my tablet i can really only base this off my experiences with my galaxy S and Galaxy Nexus phones. but hopefully thor or blazing get us a stable 4.0 for the tab before acer does then i can play with that.
As we all have heard, sadly, ICS will not be available through Samsung because of the lack of memory available in the SGS to run Touchwiz.
However the community isn't happy, XDA will probably find a way to get ICS on your SGS.
If you feel you should complain about the lack of ICS on your device, you may do so in this thread. However, other threads about the subject will be closed / deleted, since one thread should suffice.
Consider this a warning too; We strive to keeping the forum clean, and if anyone ignores this, disciplinary action will be taken.
Edit: petition url added here: http://www.change.org/petitions/www...ndwich-version-for-users-of-the-samsung-i9000 Thanks Telep!
Edit2: Samsung might be rethinking this strategy: http://www.theverge.com/2011/12/27/2663320/samsung-galaxy-s-and-galaxy-tab-ics-upgrade-review Hurray!
What was wrong with the last thread?
Anyway, this is kind of a bummer. Shows that 18 month program was a whole load of hot air.
Also, the claim that Touchwiz won't run on top of ICS is trash. I wonder if the leaked S2 version can be ported. Perhaps making our own "official" rom could be quite effective way of getting them to buck their ideas up?
EDIT: Actually, the 18 months was after the S was released and the S has been out of 18 months already (Wow time flies), so point is void.
no need for that with TW, Google's stock is better
ICS ports here working better than Samsung's stock roms
I've signed all online petitions, but I'll be happy if they just release AOSP Compatible Drivers for all the components of our phone.
Maybe we should spam Google, asking them to tell Samsung to release drivers at least.

OK, I am complaining ,give us a ICS ROM.
what bout S+? i feel cheated. at least SGS gets 2 majot updates. S+ didn't even recieve any major updates! this will be my last samsucks phone. at least sony is loyal to their customers. even xperia play which has the same specs as S+ is getting ICS WTF! screw u samsung
They can make lightweight ROM, with possibility to download additional crapwizz apps and widgets from samsung apps.

So awful, I want official ICS
Not a complaint more an observation...
It's all well and good complaining but think of it this way, The majority of users don't know about ICS and don't care. They use it because it works fine, Samsung have dropped it not cause it's a bad phone but because it's a business practice that is used every day.
Just because it sold 10, 20 or 30 million units doesn't mean they'll continue to support as people will drop this phone when they contract is up which if bought at the start only have to put up with it for a few months more before getting an upgrade anyway.
Why should Samsung continue to develop for a phone that is starting to age in hardware compared to the newer flagships? Sure the Xperia Neo is getting it because it was released this year so it makes sense to.
Now I can understand to the i9003 and i9001 users having only been out this year but i9000 is different.

Just small addition: MINORITY, who even will notice lack of new OS, is able to go here and complain, so same effort would be required to have ICS thanks to work of the devs here.
Its an "old" phone, but a very good one, that's why we have devs la Onecosmic, doing amazing things to port ICS to those of us who still use the Great SGS I9000
That's not an old phone. I'm just 20 and my phone is 1.5 years old. Support your baby samsung.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
This phone is really similar to the Nexus S from same CPU, RAM, GPU, screen etc.... So there shouldn't be too many kernel address mismatches either.....
Either way, Sammy should remove some bloatware and touchwiz to make room for ICS to fit inside of SGS's system partition. That's pretty much it
P.S. Samsung signed "android alliance" to provide updates for it's handset for at least 18 months after first release. They will have to provide updates for new android releases until April fools.

technology is considered old when a successor comes into the market. Right now, SGS2 is also considered old as SGS3 is due very soon
sgs should get ICS - after all this phone shook the entire mobile industry !
I hope they release it. I have removed RFS and now the phone is OK and i plan on keeping it until SGS3 at least. So basically ICS will be great if i can has it
if no ICS for Galaxy S, then Galaxy S is the last bought from Samsung.
It s a great device but Samsung doesnt deserve customer loyalty
Samsung will not deliver justified update no matter what! That's why I've exchanged my SGS for Nexus S and from now on will only upgrade on Googlephones!
Samsung has said few days ago, that he would not update Galaxy S due to lack of memory for ICS and Touchwiz altogether. Today, there's a new info from our 'favourite' brand:
In spite of Samsung's best efforts to bury the news by reporting it a couple of days before Christmas, Friday's disclosure that the Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab won't get upgraded to Android 4.0 drew a lot of justified ire. Now the company seems to be backtracking like a champ, as reported by ajnews in Korea, by claiming that it will review the viability of updating those two devices in response to strong customer demand. While restating the difficulties of fitting its entire software footprint onto the Galaxy S and Tab's limited memory capacity, Samsung has been quoted as saying it'll investigate ways to try and make it work. We've reached out to Samsung for official comment on the matter and will update you as soon as we hear back.

So? I dont care....theres will be more custom rom for it...
|Post from XDA premium app
|BroodRom RC2 Beta
|Instanet Free Access (no one believe its free)
good news ..!!! I hope we will get it.
i dont care either, samsung cant make a good smooth rom for galaxy s+ at all,
custom roms are always the best choice for us,
ics 4.0 will be ported to galaxy s+ sooner or later but one thing is clear, ported 4.0 especialy for galaxy s+ will be well optimized,smooth and fast and low memory issue will be solved
support our gr8 dev.team
regards
I know that, but for now on there isn't many custom roms for us. broodROM and Cranium, and the newest stock ones to flash. I appreciate their work, but they are based on the stock ones. and with ICS, that's a different thing to port it. and unfortuantely, I haven't seen much of a chance for the CyanogenMod or smth like this with ICS for our S+ yet. hope it will change.
c'mon guys. don't say u don't care. when samsung has decided not to release ICS for us you guys were complaining, now that samsung is reconsidering, you guys said i don't care?? yea right..
no matter we have custom rom or not, I would love to try out the official ICS.
and like the above mention, our dev is so poor that till this date there is so little choice of rom. how can u be so sure there would be ICS port for us? and if that didn't happen, u guys will be complaining again saying samsung is bad bla bla..
just be greatful jezz
I think it will be awesome!!

well guys.
my opinion is a little bit splitted:
in the one hand, i have my phone since september and i read the forum carefully and at this time the forum was very dad, the wasn´t a root anyway!
in the other hand:
our phone is getting very big. here in europe it is selling very good, because you can buy it with the price of the i9000 and it is better then the i9000.
i think it will grow but it will take alot of time, maybe we will reach at march a respectable community....
but only maybe
if all goes wrong we will stuck on only to custom roms...
i think we have to drink our tea and just wait.....

Check this video from Samsung:
It's the official announcement of JB and all the new features. They called the enhancements they made to the OG Note "Premium Suite" also. Everything shown is in the German ROM some of us have been using. The fact this was posted to YouTube today means the official roll-out is close.
They've also created a micro-site for it...

What's in that video is new and was posted on YouTube today. This is the first mention of "Premium Suite" and for any detail provided publicly of what's actually in the Note's JB update.
Yes I have already highlighted that in my first post.
The second mention was a reply to your post that they have create a new microsite.
What they are essentially doing is rebranding Note and re launching it in a sorts with the New JB update to push it sales even more. The positive about the same is that is we may get upgraded to 4.2 in future

The shipping ROM didn't support exFAT so all the original marketing materials said 32GB. Updates changed that and 64GB is now supported. It's supported in the German ROM some of us have been using.
The video is uploaded on an old existing website and hence the confusion on specs but its shamefull how a big company like Samsung does not pay attention to small things like this
I'm starting to think this was a pre - black friday announcement to get the masses hyped. Now, if it pushes out in the next 3 days, I could be wrong'

I think you guys give Samsung far too much credit for premeditation. Between all the different regions and different groups involved in a single product their lucky to get stuff out the door at all. And 2/3 of their revenue is outside the U.S. where Black Friday is meaningless. I do think that the release of JB marketing and support materials means we're getting close though. Keep in mind with all the N8020 ROMs that were just leaked I'd imagine that product is going to be released shortly only on JB and those marketing materials are necessary to support it.
