Samsung releases open-source bits for new Galaxy Note 10.1
By Alex Dobie last updated

Samsung has released the kernel source code and other open-source bits for its latest high-end tablet, the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition. A retail release for the tablet isn't expected until next month, but developers can now get their hands on code for the Wifi-only, Exynos 5 Octa-powered version, which carries the model number SM-P600. (There'll also be a Snapdragon 800-powered LTE version, SM-P605.)
The new Note 10.1 is the highest-specced Samsung tablet we've seen so far. Aside from the high-end CPU, it packs 3GB of RAM and a 2560x1600-resolution display, as well as the latest Android 4.3 Jelly Bean and a new version of Samsung's TouchWiz software.

October launch? Wasn't it due Q3?

He might be talking about physical retail stores. Samsung and others may sell it online on Sept. 25th but retail stores will not have it for weeks after. Maybe 2 weeks after the 25th?

No sources but 2 weeks is about right
