I sold off my SGS II for RM 1500

@ozone9,

Be patient, we still got 7 days more to 10th although there is no fixed date of when are we going to get the SME set.

Bro Waveweaver,I can no longer tahan n will take the next step today!
Anyone wants to offer me AP sets??

Looking 4ward to own 1 today

To answer some questions post before:

- It is not as "hot" as the SGS II ; infact I must say the insulation seems better - at the same temperature ,say 40 degree - i hardly feel the heat coming through the casing
- the back casing quality is similar to the SGS II except the matt pattern is finer. Maybe the casing is still new, slight a bit more difficult to take it off and put it back on versus the SGS II
- tested my favourite launchers : 3D Mobile shell - not suitable as the screen was too big and all the display was was shrunken view. Zeam launcher - swiping across screen lag and jerk , a real turn off, I'd assume this launcher is not optimized for bigger screen. So meanwhile I stick back to TouchWiz and install the app appzorter lite so that all the apps can be displayed in alphabetical order
-  speed of opening/launching apps quite similar to SGS II - don't see any lag as described by albert
- the S Pen fits very firmly and I believe is also being hold by some form of magnet and is unlikely it will drop off
- kernel build is XXKJ4
- No Chinese language option
- Battery size is 0.85 mm longer and about 0.6 mm wider than SGS II battery ; so no hope of using this battery in SGS II
- Overnite with various apps refreshing data every hour ( email, tweeter, RSS , newsfeed ) battery drop over 8 hours about 10 % ; would say is pretty good
- WOW ! I really love the bigger display. Everything especially when on browsing it looks so much better

Temporary protect my new toy in my ex Dell Streak casing : A perfect fit
