Just as an academic exercise to compare size : the new Galaxy 5.3 " Note ( pink cutting in center ) vs Dell Streak 5 and Galaxy S II. The Note will be slightly wider and slight shorter than the Dell Streak 5
The NOTE is thinner and slimmer at only 9.65 mm thick and only 178 gm ( the Dell Streak 5 is 10 mm thick and weighs 220 gm )

uncle benny why not get the Nexus 3 (Prime) instead?

it'll most probably comes with SAMOLEDHD plus ICS too.
not to mention that its screen size is rumored to be 4.5~4.65. smile.gif

ONE reason : the 5.3 inch screen. I like BIG display. That is the main reason I still use my Dell Streak. After I bought my 7" Tab, I sold off the Streak. A month later I bought back a new unit - thought I could let it go using the SGS II but I was wrong. The SGS II is only a "play" phone - testing roms , assessing performance etc . My main phone is still the Dell Streak 5

Here the NOTE offers me the best of both world : Dell Streak size screen with Samsung SGS II performance. A dream come true - a 2-1 solution

Apple say : iPhone - ONE phone - this is the best in the world. There is no smartphone better than the iphone. One phone, one choice. Why you guys want to "frust" over what brand/model/type to buy. We at Apple has decided for you. Our choice is the BEST. Don't even bother to think. We have decided for you. Just buy iPhone

Samsung says: We offer you choices. We are not the "force down your throat" manufacturer . Use your intelligence to select one that meet your needs and budget. We believe in user power and freedom of choice.

According to this review : quote excerpt

It features a SIM slot which can accommodate a regular size 2G or 3G SIMs which would finally take an edge over its serious competition from Apple iPad 2 tablet. You can do voice call over 2G and video call on 3G network available on this tablet, not available in Motorola Xoom or Apple iPad.

I just itchy to replace my n900 with android. Still thinking wether to get SII or ARC. Hold the decision after stumbled upon the video of NOTE on utube. Perfect device for me.
*
What i can tell you is don't waste your money on the ARC unless is selling for less than RM 1500. Compare to SGS II it is well down below in everything . Even its supposedly superb camera is mot really much better , only slight I'd say. Telling you this from a user of both phones

awesome~this is the function i need, the ability 2 sketch on it, so far oni HTC flyer provide tis function rite?

The HTC Flyer pen compared to this S pen is a real handicap. The Flyer pen can only write/draw on screen ; it cannot be used to select menu, icons, etc - you need your fingers to do it. The S-pen has included the finger functions at least in moving in menu, selecting and launching apps etc

although nothing is confirmed yet, but there are rumor that it will be priced in between Galaxy S and S II. smile.gif

Don't think it will exceed RM 2.5k. Even at RM 2.5k I am already a signed up buyer

Pricing strategy as demand expect lower than smartphone. It will be initially only target to a small niche market
when tab 7 inch launch also very expensive. When demand was more than expected price drop as such production costs reduces accordingly with more units. Expect to see similar scenario. If launch price at this number expect to see rm2k only in a year later.

is there any other charges apart from the Sirim Permit???

Normally none unless you so unlucky custom slap a 10% duty
But so far all buyers in lowyat forum practically all report only the sirim permit. The sirim permit sometimes not even needed. I have bought from clove uk before n is door to door without paying any extra fees. It is one of the best most trustworthy uk online shop besides Handtec

Give the guy a break. Who are you guys that he need to show proof to you unless he is selling. If you think he is bullshitting, just ignore him

But there is a point I wish to make Samsung NEVER gives international warranty for mobile phones and that is a fact

Why the Yoobao YB602 and the energizer just different 200 MAH and 100 RM difference ?

Proton 1600cc car cost RM 56000, Toyota Corolla 1600 cc car cost RM 90000 , BMW 1600 cc car cost RM 250,000 ? Get it ?
Is a matter of branding, marketing, market target and prestige

Energizer is premium brand ; is it better - not necessary but public perception on it is better
