so sad la... by that time... S4 is out 

hmm
i think im gonna order 1 to play around with
estimated next week wednesday i can get it
lazy wait for the midvalley road show

You are just like me. I used to be S3 owner before. Then when Note 2 announced, I need that I just havr to get it! Its like the S3 which has been moulded to perfection.
The Note 2 feels like it is just right in the palm. Note 1 feels rather clunky. And the battery life...my God it is so GOOD. The only battery contender is the Razr Maxx but the Razr loses out in almost all features to the Note 2.

soory very noob question..what is ICS??
cannot install any apps to memory card??  

Ice Cream Sandwich ie Android 4.0.x
Google changed the structure of the filesystem in ICS so apps can't "fake it" to move apps to SD anymore. Until someone figures out how to fake it again.

directory binding is the safer option but based on user comment it not a 100% success rate. I tested, it work on S3, not sure on note2. Mayb those with ap set can try it out or try if app2sd work on note 2
If fail, the most you lost the apps and saved data

swapping mod if anything were to go wrong, u have to factory reset it seem. So i will stick to Directly Binding for the moment

heard its by the master dealer
i think a total of 3 or 4 master dealers will b there

first time was a game by gamevil

I don't often use Samsung apps except SMemo and SPlanner~ if root, will it affect these?

I was approached by someone who claimed could sell me a sme set tomorrow. I would like to make sure if it is a genuine one. Rather than examine only the "packaging' , I wonder if I could validate via the Rom. Pls advice.

so far any1 already claim for warranty? obviously for AP set..

I mean genuine sme galaxy note 2. I suppose it is hard to stop insider to get things out from the 'orthodox' distribution channel of sme. Would appreciate if fellow formers can advice. Thanks

thanks for reply..I direct contact mikecky to grab 1 while I'm in s.alam before I back to JB..
just if I confirm my trip to japan cancel..

*u got AP set too right?

Thanks for the input - this number 1800889999?

ermmmm... i saw Digi Note2 spec with LTE connection under full specification..
