Jellybean Update for Note 10.1 N8010

Hi, I sent a email to Samsung support yesterday, here is there reply.

Jelly bean
Hi, I am sure you have had this question asked a few times now ;) Would you have any information on when the Samsung galaxy note 10.1 n8010 will be getting the 4.1.1 jelly bean update in the UK. I have the galaxy note 2 which came with jelly bean and am looking forward to using my n8010 with all the extras that the 4.1.1 update brings.
Kind regards Darren.

No need to bite anything or sit down. As all the support they have no clue what they are talking about and thus just provide misinformation.

I know, I worked in a support role, and over 80% of people working in those place are just some random dudes who have no idea about what they're doing.

I agree, The first email I recived from them indicated that there was an update for the n8010 but when I asked them to confirm that it was for the WiFi only version they come back with that.
It is frustrating because I have the note 2 which came with Jb and the s pen has so many more features.
Dazza.

I have a N8010, other Samsung devices are being updated to 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 but there is no sign on your website of a date for the N8010 update. Reading the web forums I notice people are emailing you and asking for this update, they are told you don't know. The only way Samsung could say that truthfully is if they have no intention of supporting the N8010, is this the case? Have we bought a device that you have no intention of supporting? Please investigate and inform the UK N8010 owners when the update will be available.

Sent this today, will they reply?!!

I understand that no-one in Samsung have any idea when you might release jelly bean for the N8010 but would you please confirm that there will be a jelly bean upgrade for the N8010.

What do you need the confirmation for? This is their flagship device, why would it not get JB?
