AT&T didn't offer up any availability details for its Samsung Galaxy Note variant when it originally introduced the device at CES earlier this month, but today the carrier has remedied that situation. It's been revealed that AT&T's Galaxy Note will be launching in both "carbon blue" and "ceramic white" on February 19th for $299.99 with a two-year contract. Those of you that absolutely, positively need to have one of the 5.3-inch handsets will be able to pre-order the Galaxy Note starting February 5th. AT&T says that customers that manage to pencil in their pre-order by February 15th will have the device on their doorstep by February 17th.
Care for a nice spec refresher? AT&T's version of the Galaxy Note packs 5.3-inch 1280x800 HD Super AMOLED display, 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 8-megapixel shooter on back, 2-megapixel camera around front, 1080p video capture, a 2,500mAh battery and 4G LTE connectivity. Also onboard is Android 2.3.6 running beneath Samsung's TouchWiz 4.0 interface. If you're still on the fence about the AT&T Galaxy Note after all of that, you may want to watch our hands-on video with the 5.3-inch phablet. And hey, even if you're not in the market for the Note, the video is still worth a view for the nice caricature of our fearless leader Aaron Baker. Check it out below.

Key Facts
Previously announced at AT&T’s Developer Summit leading up to the International Consumer Electronics Show earlier this month, the Samsung Galaxy Note™ arrives in carbon blue and ceramic white at AT&T* stores beginning Feb. 19 for $299.99 with a two-year agreement.
Customers excited to get their hands on this dream device even earlier can pre-order at http://www.att.com/galaxynote or any AT&T company-owned retail store beginning Sunday, Feb. 5 for delivery by Feb. 17.
The Galaxy Note combines the best features of a smartphone with the larger viewing screen of a tablet and advanced technology in the S Pen™ -- delivering an all-in-one device that allows users to work more efficiently and maintain productivity, while communicating in a unique, personal way.
Galaxy Note boasts the world’s first 5.3-inch HD Super AMOLED™ screen (1280x800), one of the largest screens on a smartphone, for sharp, clear colors and readability – both indoors and out. With the expansive high-resolution screen that provides an immersive viewing experience, customers can take full advantage of the large display, to create and consume more.
The Galaxy Note includes a highly advanced tool called the S Pen, which delivers fast, responsive and precise control to create fine lines and detail on the device display, much like an ink pen and pad of paper. With the S Pen, users can easily sketch drawings, jot down notes, or write emails and texts quickly and easily in free-form handwriting.
S Memo™, a multimedia application designed to capture all forms of user-created content captured by the S Pen, allows for pictures, voice recordings, typed text, handwritten notes or drawings to be combined via a single application, converted to a ‘memo’, and shared as desired.
It also includes a smart professional planning tool that makes full use of the device’s large screen. The calendar integrates the phone’s to-do list and schedule; control and navigation is intuitive, helping customers comprehensively organize their lives.
An easy screen-capture function also allows users to instantly save any screen, which can also be annotated with the S Pen before being saved or shared.
Users can communicate in personal, creative ways expanding beyond traditional sharing methods with the Galaxy Note.

Desktop Dock to get the most out of your Galaxy Note at home
