I just switched from my buggie Motorola Atrix (phantom screen touches and response issues) to a new Samsung Galaxy Note and couldn't be happier. I had to buy my phone in the open market since I wasn't due for an upgrade until the fall, but it was worth every penny.
The screen is incredible and all the apps are fast and snappy. I also have LTE now and it's more than twice as fast as my home wi-fi network. I might be using my Honeycomb tablet a lot less now when I'm at home. I've gotten used to holding the phone and it just feels like a large phone and not a small tablet. Also, my old Atrix feels like a small toy now.
I haven't used the stylist pen yet. Maybe at the next business meeting, I'll whip it out.
Not all is perfect though. The only complaints so far is the voice recognition is not as good as in the Atrix and the text auto correct is too insistance on what you intend to type, escpecially when I'm trying to type my login ID or email address. Maybe it just needs to learn the new 'words'. Also, I'm not able to natively change the stock short cuts at the bottom of the screen.
