A quick scan for Samsung q1b news this morning reveals that the Q1b might be available in less than 2 weeks.

The details are from CDW where it also shows the Pentium-M based Q1 being in stock. This price, however, does not seem to include the UMTS/Cellular capability which was shown as an option on the previous marketing info we saw. I’m guessing that the European market will get the cellular data option to start with.

Other important features of the Q1b include a claimed 5 hours battery life and a much brighter screen.
