I bought myself a Samsung galaxy Tab2 at Xmas, and after a couple of days it started updating to JB. It warned me I might "lose" some of the apps i'd installed,so I held my breath, but all was ok. Can't say I noticed any change after the upgrade(it told me it had updated successfully), but am still getting used to it anyway. So far i'm loving it!

Here my update happened on a well known model and Flash is no more. Ouch.

Buy either a Nexus 7 or Nexus 10 by Google. I believe they both come with Jelly Bean. I just bought a Nexus 7 to use in my car as a GPS/entertainment system and I know that has Jelly Bean. You can buy direct from Google or from a store.

Baybreeze.
Many thanks for your responding in a pleasant way, something laking on here of late. In fact I have looked at your suggestions and am interested in buying one but thare are a couple of other machines which also interest me, other than them not having JellyBean. I am still left with the question as to how you can know, in advance, that a machine which only carries ICS may be upgraded to JB soon or at a later date or, if in fact, never. This is really the hub of my question which I would really love someone to answer me. Many thanks.
