And the million dollar question is, will it be available for the Mini ? (If Mini supports GB, then why not ICS)

Buying SGM 'now' maybe not a wise decision, because its released in Jan 2011 and its old as of currently.
Galaxy Y falls in the same category, maybe better to replace with this. Or you could wait for Galaxy Mini 2 or go for better new models like Ace+ or Ace 2
