Crey, please advise me on the source(s) of ANY info you have on the Note competitors, particularly from HTC, coming soon! I've been wishing but have had no reason to believe my wish would be reality till I read your post . . . And, if necessary, I can wait for the Samsung Note 2; I'm just partial to HTC over Samsung.

Here is a link to where it was reported. There were a few other blogs reporting it, but I this is the first one i remembered.

My wife is on VZW, and I really was not even hesitating on Big Red until I saw a stagnant period since the Gnexus came out, they had not put out any new devices. Also, they passed on several Samsung options such as the SGII that made me, which left me with Motorola and selected htc devices.

I opted to switch to ATT from T-Mo as I see a trend of high end devices headed there. Also the availability of 4GLTE, HSPA+, and 3G. In my stomping grounds I don't get VZW nor ATT 4GLTE, but i liked having the HSPA+ as a backup from ATT. I noticed the speeds readily when testing devices from both vendors...and they are about 1,000 ft apart....ATT blew them big red out of the water. And the Note really seems to be THAT amazing device that would make me come over to the Blue Side!

Thanks for the link, Crey! I've been with AT&T for so long that they "deal" well with me so I would rather not go to Verizon . . . but if AT&T doesn't get the Note 2 or the HTC Note competitor . . . I may be a turncoat.

I wonder how much difference would be noticed betwixt the 5" HTC device and the 5.3" Note. And does anyone know yet what the display size of the Note 2 will be?
