Thats great news Hobbs, cant wait for the final product! 
By the way i used a Galaxy Note today, on of my friends got it and shes loving it, must say VERY tempting i was able to use it one handed which is great considering its sheer size, its made things even more difficult, only issue is that at gym i use my X10 as my music player and when running it can be an issue in the pocket otherwise i think i'd be happy with it, hmm...decisions decisions.

That's cool to hear Tsepz. I have to admit I don't have that problem. Kind of a one horse race for me. It's the Note or Nada.

Galaxy Note......Galaxy Nexus.....Galaxy Note......Galaxy Nexus.....Galaxy Note......Galaxy Nexus....
Good thing my upgrade is still a few months away as I am torn between the two, although the Note is ahead by a whisker.
That is unless SE comes out with something better (not likely). I have been a huge fanboi of SE/Ericsson for the last 16 years (never owned anything else) but times they are a-changing! |

The Galaxy Note aswell as other were released in white today in Germany. Should be elsewhere soon too. There is also a video showing that the Galaxy Note is actually quite pocketable but not so in tight jeans.

Wow!
A lot of you are going for the Note, looks like I will be the only one with a different phone.
@Tsepz_GP
I am in the market for a tablet and was wondering about your situation with Android on a phone and a tablet. Do you sometimes not feel bored having the same OS on the tablet and phone? I know there are subtle differences between the OSs on the two devices. The main reason why I have decided to go for a Blackberry (QNX) and Android for my next purchases is to avoid getting bored by having the same OSon two devices.
Right now the iPad is very appealing. If I were to choose between the Android tablet and a QNX one I'd more likely pick the QNX tablet.

It can get boring at times, but im happy with my setup overall, i just cant see myself with an iPad or QNX, i thoroughly enjoy using Android, what the tablet does is make an OS i enjoy using on my phone even more convenient to use.
Personaly i find it best to use the same OS on both your phone and tablet, going between my Android phone and my mom's iPad can be so frustrating as both UIs work differently and some apps i have on the Android dont exsist for iPad, and vice versa, it can be a bit annoying, whereas between my Galaxy Tab and X10 theres more consistency in UI and apps making going between them easy, so if thats a big thing to you then id suggest you go Android, if not then id highly recommend the iPad2.

Thanks!
The above statement rules out the iPad, now it is a question of which to go for between the Plybook or an Android tablet. The thing is, the Blackberry (Bold Touch something) is going to be my primary phone while the Razr wll be my secondary one. So, this (at this stage at least) leads me to the Paybook. I will need some time to weigh my options so I wll think about it some more before I buy.

Greenpoint/Cape Town Stadium from a penthouse suite along Beachfront Road.
This area before the World Cup was just soccer fields that were in really bad shape.What they've done with this space is absolutely amazing.Looks fantastic.

Coolio.Finally arrived.
I almost walked into a Vodacom store today and got the Galaxy Note.Thank goodness I did'nt and stopped myself.I'm trying really really hard to stick out this 2 year contract.Also it would be really dumb to get it now when prices are at a premium.June the 2nd seems an age away.
