.YES. NO. YES.NO. Damn, don't want everyone to have tje same phone as me, but this means more support, more accessories, and hopefully longer mfg support.

Wow! They haven't done any pre-orders for the U.S. yet, as far as I know.

Well this phone offers so many features and functionality than any other smartphone. Heck, it even comes with a barometer, a user-accessible extra large 2100mAh Li-Ion battery and NFC. Not to mention that the camera's sensor and lens have been upgraded.

It's such a practical choice for a smartphone.

Samsung has really done an excellent job on this one.

I'd love to be included in that number if I could pre-order one for VZW.

Unfortunately I'm going to have to choke down full retail on this thing for VZW. I won't leave them as they have truly been great. I have the unlimited data and if you swap phones without a discount and a plan, they will honor the unlimited data. $300 and a two year is fine, but not if they drop me to some data plan. However, contract free, then the next phone that rocks won't have to wait for my contract to expire.

That hasn't even been confirmed yet so I don't know how you are already saying you need to buy it for full retail?

In order to keep the grandfathered unlimited data on Verizon, people have to buy the device for full retail price. VZW will not subsidize and continue unlimited service anymore.
