I didn't say anything about those devices. Maybe you should read other people's comments and answer what they said instead of just restating your arguments to everyone.

Goes on sale the 17th.
Uh, maybe *you* should go back and read the thread. The 5" Galaxy Note is exactly what ap3604 mentioned in his post (ap3604's post) that you responded to (Link to your post)
So, you're wrong twice. In the same thread. Good job.
I suspect there is some stretching of the truth a it by some regarding them playing with one at a Best Buy.
I was at one last night and the local manager of their cell phone department said all Best Buy stores only received the dummy units.
None of them are functional.
Here's one of them. They look good, but don't work. It's just a photo insert under a plastic screen.
That's not the same device AT&T is selling.
The U.S. version uses a 1.5Ghz Qualcomm chip instead of the 1.4Ghz Exnyos chip used in the EU version.
The U.S. version also doesn't have that huge ugly button in the middle.
It has the traditional 4 capacitive buttons across the bottom.
The GPU is different too, although I'm not having any luck on exactly which one they're using.

The stylus is an extra feature that one can ignore if they choose to. So, no problem there.
I've preordered one after holding out for a 7" iPad which appears to be shelved.
It should be ideal since I carry a laptop case anyway, and welcome the large size for easy & fun web browsing.
Instead of having to scroll as much as one does with a tiny screen, the note will be fantastic for both email & the web.

Why does everyone call it the "big ugly button"..? It looks less cluttered to me than the row capacitive symbols, a la the iPhone itself.
A clean row of 4 buttons looks better than a huge button flanked by capacitive button on either side.
Just a personal preference.
Geez, the Galaxy Note is already going to be replaced by the Galaxy Note S.
Why even bother buying an android phone when 2-3 months later, the faster, cooler version will be out.

Gee...do most here wish that a new iPhone came out more than it does???? I say yes.
Nothing wrong with choice. Breeds innovation.

The US Att version will not have a big ugly button. That is the international version.
Mine arrives tomorrow or the day after. As an iPhone, iPad, and mac user, I gotta say that I am really looking forward to a much larger phone.
If it sucks...it goes back.

You must be the expert too....just another piece of samsung junk
I guess if Apple made a car and came out with 1 new revised model each year, you would jump right on that train too..

Watching that phone in action on that vid gives me a headache.
Seems like a right mess
Explain...
jeez...ummm the screen swapping, the UI all of it really.
I also stopped at about 4 mins because it was too hard to watch. That may have been because of the way it was filmed to be fair.

Seems you are already too much in Fisher Price UI, shown on a screen designed for 14 year old smallhanded Emo-girlies.
The Note (the EU version) was released last year shortly after MWC. Hardly 2-3 months ago.Geez, the Galaxy Note is already going to be replaced by the Galaxy Note S.

What's sad is it took nearly a year to get a version built for the U.S. market.

Nov 17th Europe release date -> Feb 17th U.S. release date = 3 months
Wow!
I remember seeing the Note presentation at MWC last year. Guess Sammy dragged ass on the launch for most of the year.
I recall it was supposed to be released shortly after MWC.
Since it was planned to be EU only at the time, I never followed up on it.
Thanks for the link.
