Default Missing feature, Active Noise cancellation with dedicated mic?

EDIT: nvm, the active noise cancellation feature was missing from gsmarena's site in the spec but its now there, I suppose maybe thanks to the preview.

anyway, anyone knows why NFC is listed as (optional) in gsmarena's web?
also, the diff between MHL and HDMI right now is that MHL connected to non mhl enabled tvs just doesnt charge the phone like regular HDMI does, right?
MHL outputs at 720P,1080P or WVGA? meaning, if I screen a WVGA movie, will it upscale it to 1080P? (therefore causing bad effects)?

Because NFC isn't available in some regions.

Right, and it has the microUSB functions as well.

Yes, that's right. But there is also an adapter that allows you to connect a micro USB cable to, so you can charge your phone at the same time. (You can connect a micro usb cable and a hdmi cable at the same time with that adapter)

Yep, the micro usb to HDMI has two ports, one micro USB port (for charging) and one HDMI port.

Yes, that the little adapter that Samsung wants you to buy for $29.99. (Just a guesstimated cost)

does anyone know if there is notification light on SGS2. I really hate Samsung for NOT puting any outside notification lighs on any phone.

I will miss it when I buy SGS2 (now I'm on N1 and the trackball light is great)

No there are no LED notifications on this device. Its been discussed multiple times over multiple threads.

It would be great to have it, but it doesnt. Lets move on.
