Got it yesterday via Kies...battery seems to drain slightly faster, email seems to not be synching on its hourly schedule (if at all, need to run manually), and lost ability to change the swype highlight color, travesty I know.
However it does come with the peviously missing Note apps, but does not have the full "briefing alarm", where the alarm dictates the day's agenda, top news story, and weather, a la the S3...at least I cannot get it working.
FWIW, you'll probably find more posts about it in the at&t Note forum.
