anyway, anyone knows how much a 2 month Galaxy Note will fetch in market -- comes with flip case & 2yrs warranty...
i'm generally happy with Galaxy Note but there are a few minor issues:
* i find Samsung's implementation on the Note to be clumsy. it feels rushed. lots of minor/ little quirks. having also used sgs2, i'd say sgs2 implementation is more solid.
* i'm one of those who appreciate big screen. but with Note, hard to do single hand operation --> i guess my hands are too small
i'm now thinking if i should try our Galaxy Nexus... stock Android... i guess it means less excess baggage in the RAM, etc... but 5MP camera... i'm one of those who rely a lot on phone camera...
oh well... see how.
I have no experience with S2 and the Note is my first Android. I would agree that one hand operation is quite hard to do even with big hands. Even receiving call can be tedious. Assuming you're not on bluetooth, taking out the Note from your pocket, take the note out of the case (assuming if you have one) and trying to accept a call with one hand is quite cumbersome. It's more easy with a smaller phone.

i got the same feeling with u..if s2 got bigger screen display, i would think s2's first feel is so much better no matter in term of smoothness or software aspect.. i put the s2 side by side with my note, comparing the app loading time, slide from one page to another etc, s2 is much smoother and note is like dragging.. and temperature of the phone, s2 is cooler a bit compare to my note.. note can easily hit up to 42% although just surfing the web or just surfing the market..i did not face this in my ex-s2.. and the colour banding problem is so terrible in note.. but i cant let go my note yet..cos it is main to replace my older 5inch 'tablet'.. i used it as tablet and nor call..

both got pro and cons..i just have to bear with the cons and enjoy the pro..

I believe the banding problem affects some phones. Are you already on 2.3.6? I haven't fully tested out but my brief playing with 720p files using DicePlayer does not have any blocking anymore on dark areas.

Switch to 20MHz.
Change wireless network from n/g/b to g/b only if still got problem.

Got my charging dock cum extra battery charger from ebay: Now can charge Note plus extra battery same time
There is an additional micro USB port that one can connect to PC and sync at same time

Nice.
For others, this desktop dock charger is not a Samsung original device. So don't be fooled to pay a lot for it.
Unlike the one bought by Uncle Benny, the Samsung original one will only charge your spare battery but will not charge the phone. There's a slot to hold your phone though but it will not charge the phone.
