AT&T users in New York City suffering partial phone outage (update: restored)

We've been inundated with a flood of tips from Big Applers this morning, and we just confirmed ourselves -- a large sect of AT&T users in New York City aren't receiving calls. Even the ones who aren't just holding it wrong. It seems as if outgoing calls operate just fine, but folks trying to dial in are greeted with eternal ringing. As in, it doesn't even go to voicemail. We're assuming the engineers at Ma Bell are all over this as we speak, but be sure to let us know how wrecked your Big City life is due to this in comments below.

Update: Right on cue, AT&T pinged us to say everything should be back to normal. The formal quote is below: "Wireless voice service has been restored and is back to normal now after a software issue occurred during routine maintenance which caused some customers on Long Island and in parts of Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan to experience voice service disruptions this morning. We apologize for any inconvenience to our customers."

[Thanks to everyone who sent this in]

A tour of Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1 launch event in London (update: video!)

And the winner is... not us :(

Update: We've added a video of some of the lucky Tab 10.1, Galaxy S II and Samsung TV winners after the jump!

While a few lucky Americans waited to have their Galaxy Tab 10.1's updated with Samsung's TouchWiz UX, we were lined up among hundreds of eager British shoppers waiting to get their hands on the European version before anyone else. Like the Tab 10.1 currenty on sale in the US, it's rocking Android 3.1, however the European version is rocking TouchWiz out of the box. We've taken a closer look at TouchWiz on the Tab in our sneak peek and hands-on features -- so be sure to check them out.

Early adopters were treated to a selection of drinks and delicious miniature snacks courtesy of Samsung, and there was also the chance to win a Galaxy S II's, Galaxy Tab 10,1's and a £1500 (~$2450) value Samsung TV via the Samsung Tab Grabber. We used the Tab Grabber, but all we grabbed was a plastic egg containing a raffle ticket that didn't win us anything :(

Check out our virtual tour of the event after the jump, where you'll find photos and videos of people having fun and winning expensive Samsung gear.
