QUOTE(XeactorZ @ Sep 27 2013, 06:34 PM) Note is almost equivalent to their S series then. .....and it was clear that the phablet – now a word in the Oxford dictionary – was here to stay, and that Samsung was the unchallenged king of the phablet market.

update regarding the regional sim lock QUOTE While Samsung’s wordings aren’t very clear, it seems that the Galaxy Note 3 will actually be usable everywhere, but not before it is activated with a SIM from the region it was bought in. Once you activate it/use it with a local SIM, you’ll be able to visit other regions/travel abroad and use it with SIM cards from that particular region without issues. This is likely to reduce grey imports by retailers and those who want to make a quick buck by importing the device and selling it at higher prices, as the retailer would have to open the box to activate it before selling it, which would make it less attractive to a buyer. However, until Samsung makes an even clearer statement, you probably should refrain from importing even a Note 3 that has been activated in its home region. source : http://www.sammobile.com/2013/09/26/heres-...gional-sim-lockso conclusion, no need to worry about it last 1, I just saw got Kies and Kies 3 @@ Kies 3 supported device for Note 3 and later Kies supported device before Note 3 source : http://www.samsung.com/my/support/usefulso...JSP#versionInfoThis post has been edited by XeactorZ: Sep 27 2013, 06:43 PM

Oh thanks for the reply, then it is the same like n2 you will need a fork usb cable to provide power or use a powered usb hub. Will try it out later.
