There’s also a possibility, according to the same report, that the event might be held in the US, Apple’s home turf. As far as availability is concerned the phone is rumored to appear first in Eastern Europe, followed by the rest of the continent and and Asia before the end of April. US, Australia and Africa will, according to the report, get the Galaxy S IV in May-June.
