I'm on my 2nd day with the Note and so far I'm loving it but the one thing that I was having trouble doing was figuring out how to carry it. Coming from an iPhone I was used to a much smaller footprint. I found this case at AT&T and so far I love it. It protects the phone, both front and back. You actually remove the back of the phone and the back of this case becomes it's back. It makes the phone much nicer and easier for me to carry around because I don't have to have it in my pocket but yet it is protected.
