    Gorilla glass 2

    Sorry but there's just a lot of ignorance in this thread. 1. The phrase is "intents AND purposes" 2. Gorilla glass 1, 2 or 713 are all quite scratchable. 3. Wet or dry it's still a screen protector and not just a clever name. It will help prevent scratches from occurring. 4. Dry protectors...

    At&t sn2 $200 + s3 $100 (ymmv)

    I believe I had to register with a company I used to work for. There was a code I had to enter. I'd have to look it up now. As for the bending over backwards, the lady really refused to work with me and I had to try a variety of tactics. She wouldn't lower the price of the GN2 from $350...

    At&t sn2 $200 + s3 $100 (ymmv)

    Posted this on Slickdeals, but... FWIW:Samsung Galaxy Note 2: $200 GS3: $100. (AT&T) YMMV. For what it's worth. Called 611 direct from my FULL upgrade eligible line, the other line did not present the same menu options!!! (and got disconnected when choosing to speak to cust svc, hmmmm...) I was...

    [Closed] Win an AT&T HTC One X+ (US only)

    I get a massive layoff scare at work for Xmas. I'd love a current phone to ease the tension!

    Awesome phone, but...

    Odd, I get a pained thumb from my iPhone 4. That's one of the reasons I'm looking forward to a bigger phone. Can't wait for it to get here next week, my thumb hurts and the 4 is showing its age. You know its bad when your wife makes fun of your phone for being slow.

    Anyone Managed to get a Note 2 from a Best Buy store?

    I've had at least 5 diff area Best Buy's/BBY Mobile state they weren't allowed to sell them until the 11th. I have no idea why as AT&T stores have stated they sold out of their initial (albeit dismal, 1-2 unit) stock already. As a disclaimer, while I am oddly excited for this phone and...

    Does it matter what class of SD card I use?

    This higher class # = higher speed across the board is a bit of a misnomer. Lower class (4&6) seem to have higher random access speeds, so when pulling up files lower than 6MB, it may behoove you to have a lower class card. Seems handy when pulling up photo and MP3. If you're transferring...

    AT&T Note 2 Initial Thoughts...Just got it today!

    I understand that people want headphones with controls designed to work for this phone, but really? As a smartphone and iPhone user for years, and even having phones with itunes imported before anyone knew what it was (razr v3xi) I've never once used the stock headphones. Is this really a...

    AT&T Note 2 Through Best Buy for $224.99 (25% discount)

    Discover still gives 5% cashback and whether or not I get my $50 giftcard for BBY's phone freedom upgrade, this is a better deal. Thanks a lot for posting! the rep over the phone when cancelling my bby.com order was absolutely clueless but the cancellation was painless and though he knew...

    Any reason to quit VZW for AT&T when buying the Note 2?

    Does the Note 2 support simultaneous voice and data on VZW? This is something you can do with AT&T on iPhone that you can't with Verizon. Otherwise if Verizon is launching with multi-window, I can't imagine AT&T will be far behind, if at all.
