Update: Play.com updated their page, and the release date is now listed as May 6...
According to Play.com, Samsung's Galaxy S2 will ship on March 31st. The price is £600 for an unlocked phone (no contract). If true this will probably be the first Super AMOLED Plus phone that actually ships. The Galaxy S2 has a WVGA 4.3" Super AMOLED plus display, 1Ghz dual-core processor, NFC, Bluetooth 3 and HSPA+. It's only 8.49mm thick at its thinnest point.

Yep, I see it too... too bad ;-)
That pricing is just insane IMHO. I don't think I'd ever pay that much for a phone. I normally set a limit at €500. No matter how much you spend, it will be artificially* obsolete within 2 years.
*artificially because the hardware will still be fine, but the manufacturer will stop supporting it, so you're left at the mercy of the hacking community for further updates.
Remember that this is the initial price without subsidy. It is bound to come down quickly...
