lol Yes it is a very expensive addition. I do control myself to once a year though until this year. Sammy has brought out some great toys this year. Got a GS3 and Note 10.1 last month for my wife. I am waiting for this one. This will complete our Sammy Family for Android and I am also thinking of a WinMo8 Tablet from Sammy. We bought the GS3 at BB and thinking of going there again for my Note2. Paid the full INS off at a cheaper price $170 compared to 10 bucks a month( $240) 2 years. They also gave us a +50 bucks in the buy back so what ever the phone is worth we will get an extra 50 bucks for it. If you can afford the $170 upfront, do so it will be worth it. Can't wait!
