its been available elsewhere for some time. This is the UK launch, and its the one I'm very tempted by too if a good deal comes along!

Isn't it worth buying now just for the 250 worth of free goodies on offer?

Looks incredible

If you liked the GS2 and size is no issue then you'll love the Note, that display is unbelievably stunning.

Very nice. I held a dummy Note in Orange store for first time today & it's bigger than I thought. One handed use was a no no

I also had my eye on the Note but when I used a working model at a Samsung expo it just didnt feel right for me.Got the G2 the very next day without any regrets.Looks cool in white though.

Bono I was also a bit taken aback by the size the first time I saw one in a store.You know the dimensions and you've seen pics on the net but when you see one in reality its bigger than you thought.

Its a great phone for women to, one of my friends works as a PA and she loves her Galaxy Note, she keeps it in her handbag so size isnt an issue, and uses the Calender along with Mini Diary, Task, Memo and Polaris Office very often, with the S-Pen to when needed, its an EXCELLENT business tool, Samsung hit the nail on the head with it, explains why its already sold over 1million units, and thats before hitting the USA.

It reminds me a bit of the Nokia E90, lol, has a ridiculously large screen and size, unbelievably powerful hardware, great build quality, very expensive and yet...its flying off the shelves, while GS2 is more like the N95-8gb: "jack of all trades", yet well sized type device.

Tsepz Its exactly that.They were identical just differently packaged.I had both those phones.If I was a businessman in a suit with a brief case yep the Note would get my vote and I would have one.(or some clean boring office job) But Im an artist who climbs scaffolding and scurries around on the floor so the S2 it had to be.Fits snugly in my pocket without been uncomfortable and one handed use isnt a problem.Would love a Note but its just not practical for me.
Theres even a Checkrom RevoHD rom for the Note.
Whenever I watch reviews of it my heart sinks and I think did I make the right choice getting the G2.But then I think back to that Samsung Expo and I know it just wasnt for me.

I know right? Went to a Samsung store last December, screen was mind-blowing.
