NO, if you search for the word incompatible you will find more than a few rants about it. You can send an S-note from the 10.1 to your 3 and it will convert them to the new format. But you should never ever try to send notes from your 3 to the 10.1. Also be very careful about syncing. I swear I have everything turned off but still it somehow tries to sync and notes from the 3 end up on my 10.1 as locked S-notes that require some unknown password. I can't delete them, I can't open them, sigh. Feel free to go to Samsung and let them know your displeasure! I usually can find work arounds, but this one had me so frustrated I even tried to get AT&T to let me return the phone and let me get the Note 2 instead. They said no and I really like the size and some of the new features so I didn't fight very hard. I just keep hoping Samsung will fix this soon.
