You are right. Samsung Galaxy S has kind of HDMI port, but it's called as MHL.
If you visit this official press release from Samsung (http://www.samsungunpacked.com/press/press1_2_detail.html), you can see MHL on Connectivity section.

About MHL you can refer to wiki :

Mobile High-definition Link

The MHL™ (Mobile High-Definition Link) Consortium was formed to develop a new mobile audio/video interface standard for directly connecting mobile phones and other portable consumer electronics (CE) devices to high-definition televisions (HDTVs) and displays. The MHL standard features a single-cable with a low pin-count interface able to support up to 1080p high-definition (HD) video and digital audio while simultaneously providing power to the mobile device.

The MHL Consortium was announced by the companies of the Mobile High-definition Working Group on April 14, 2010. Nokia, Samsung, Silicon Image, Sony and Toshiba had been working on a specification since the Working Group announcement in September, 2009.

MHL make it possible to charge the phone while transmitting data, in this sense it's better than HDMI. In case there's no MHL-enabled HDTV(in other words, HDMI-only HDTV) , 'MHL to HDMI' converter is available.

If you look at the official specs page for the new Galaxy S II you will notice that both the Super AMOLED Plus screen and Exynos processor are region-dependable. That means we could get a phone with a different screen and a different SoC inside.


I think 'May not be applicable in some regions' is only applicable to Orion processor, and the asterisk on 4.3" WVGA SUPER AMOLED Plus just means 'Display: "4.27" in actual measurement'. If there's any plan to adopt SLCD display instead of Super Amoled Plus, they will make another model and will not give it a name of Samsung Galaxy S2. For example Wave I and Wave II have the almost same spec, except that Wave I has 3.3' Super Amoled and Wave II 3.7' Super Clear LCD, and it's known that it's because of the shortage of Super Amoled.

Samsung officially announced that Exynos 4210(or Orion) was scheduled for production next month (March).

The new naming system will be first applied to the dual core processor codenamed Orion, which was announced in September 2010. Carrying the name Exynos 4210, Samsung's powerful 1GHz dual-core applicationprocessor is scheduled for production next month.

And Galaxy S2 will be released as early as April in Korea, in accordiance with the global launching, according to this korean news (http://news.mt.co.kr/mtview.php?no=2011021507424676571). So chances are that it could be released on April globally if it proceeds on schedule.
