Samsung Set to Announce Galaxy SII And 8.9″ Galaxy Tab With LTE.

Samsung’s Galaxy S II smartphone has dominated the Android landscape across the pond in Europe. While we here in the states are finally this close to getting our own taste of Samsung’s latest and greatest, the company is set to one-up themselves this coming week at Berlin’s IFA conference. There, Samsung will officially unveil slightly tweaked Galaxy S II phones and an 8.9″ Galaxy Tab with one very important feature — LTE.

But there’s more. Besides the faster wireless goodness, Sammy has managed to bring a faster 1.5 GHz dual-core processor to both devices. Finally, the Galaxy S II in particular will also get a screen upgrade to 4.5″ (AMOLED).

Pricing and release are still up in the air. Also unknown: How Sammy and Apple’s currently waging patent war overseas will affect the new devices there as well as here in the states.

    Should I be worried about Apple’s EU ban on the Galaxy?  I saw it was specific to an older Android OS but as we get closer to an actual US announcement I’m curious if this could throw a wrench in things.
