FCC gives Samsung's Galaxy Note 10.1 LTE edition the nod, forgets the LTE part

South Koreans were given [preferential treatment](http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/08/samsung-announces-android-4-1-availability-for-galaxy-s-iii/) _again_ last month, as Samsung released the [LTE variant](http://www.engadget.com/2012/11/19/galaxy-note-10.1-lte/) of the [Galaxy Note 10.1](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/15/samsung-galaxy-note-10-1-review/) in its native land. It looks like this period of exclusive access will soon end, however, as the 4G-equipped version of the slate has dropped by the [FCC](http://www.engadget.com/tag/fcc/) to pick up a round of approvals. Codenamed SHV-E230S and showing an [LTE](http://www.engadget.com/tag/lte/) brand on the back panel (diagram) in official docs, the US regulator cleared WiFi, Bluetooth, GSM and WCDMA (3G) connectivity options. LTE bands were notably absent from testing, so the tablet will likely need another visit to get that radio signed off. Unfortunately, requiring that second meeting doesn't leave much time for it to launch stateside if it wants a spot under indoor evergreens.
