What is up with that name... are they trying to beat out the iPhone Math?

Isn't the Note II a 5.5" screen? What in the world do you need this for?

For people who want an even larger phone..

I do like concept with the speaker on the front of the phone though..

Sounds like it'll be very similar to the Note 2!

There must be something that differentiates it I guess.

That looks like the Galaxy Player 5.8 that they'll likely never launch in the US. Or when they do it'll be a year out of date just like the last ones.

Thanks for the clarification. Wasn't familiar with this device. I actually like the design of it.

Wonder what will make it different to the note?

Rumor is the next Note will be 6.3" so this phone will be a little small.. lol.

This looks like the third generation of galaxy devices though, not the fourth (bear in mind the 'note 2' is a third generation galaxy).

yeah. Me too. I wish Samsung would work a little faster at getting this thing out in the us.
I'm pretty sure it was announced in August.
