Called the AT&T store yesterday to see if the had gotten in any gsn2 and the girl says yes we only have 8 so better get here early. So I show up at 0645 no line. They open up at 0900. Coming from a iPhone I figured there would be a line but guess not. Feel like a idiot out in my truck waiting for the store to open. LOL

I actually won a t-shirt from Samsung last weekend with that slogan. Should wear it when I go to the store and ask for a discount
I sent my wife down to pick one up for me. She called me at 9:10 and said the line was about 50-60 people long. I really thought she'd be like the only one there. I guess I'll have to wait for the next shipment.

This was in Woodinville, WA.
She just called me and told me the Redmond store line was "out the door, down the sidewalk, around the corner into the parking garage. Probably 200 people" (her words).
I'm just assuming it's for the Note 2. She never actually got out of the car. She did say they were all holding pieces of paper though.

Like your description for the phone, i believe everybody here in the form feels like you do. If the evo 4g had such a huge amount of developers around it, I can only imagine the amount of love this phone will get.

The good thing is that the GSII has been out for a few months, and has plenty of development. I wonder if the base stock ROM is similar.
Oh yeah...this device is just, really what Android should be. It's borders on g'damned religious epiphany.
Samsung definitely did it right with the Galaxy S2.

Finally! But its nothing like that 3D POS got. I loved the Evo 4G but IMO the NS4G and this new beauty have been the best phones since it...although the Photon wasn't bad at all but returned it before my 30 days for the S2.

I think I saw about the same, 3-5 commercials during games...and like 3-5 dozen J-Lo Fiat commercials. But I digress.
I think they're not over advertising because supplies/distribution are really low right now. I know the Sprint store we got our phones from only had 14 in-store on Friday (they had 5 on Tuesday when I reserved 2, and then got another 9 in Friday morning), and were down to 3 when my wife and I picked ours up 2-hours before close. The Best Buy across the parking lot only got in 2 for Friday, and no accessories at all.
I really suspect that they are probably saving some revenue for a big push with the new iphone. I love my epic touch but I think the the new Iphone will be the perfect phone for my girl. Way off topic though. I agree OP I am in love with this phone too. My day off today my girl went out and I stayed home all day messing with my new toy.
I'm headover heels in love too!....(cept...I'll probably betray her when Nexus Prime is onveiled...shhhh)
Sounds convincing.At this rate. I've herd it all. Hope sells that's for sure.

The nexus prime dosen't exist, it never did, it was the suspected name for the phone for months but since it was launched it has been reffered to as the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, if the place or person you ordered from said it was a nexus prime then it's probably fake.

Its fun to joke about, but seriously do this! I saw someone in one of the early Expansys/Clove/Handtec threads (one of the Euro importers) report that he missed delivery of the phone, and had to go pick it up at the distribution hub. He signed for the package, which indicates that he took the package and was OK with the condition of the materials. He then opened the box when he got home and found that someone at the shipping co had opened the box, taken the phone, and replaced it with something of similar weight. Extremely rough because it is super troublesome to deal with the shipping co and especially the importer who's based outside the US.
I plan on opening mine at the counter at FedEx when I go to pick it up. Not gonna take that kinda chance. I also requested the package be held at the distribution center, rather than taking a chance that I miss delivery and it sits on the truck for too long. Super tinfoil hat, but damn its a $575 package, I'm gonna check that **** first.

If they have to open it to apply it, it would.
When I watched the demo at CES they stated they do not need to open the device. They put the phone into a machine that released a 'fog' which spreads through the phone which waterproofs it.
looks neat and if you are one of those people dropping $40 on a case you probably wouldnt mind dropping the $60ish it looks like it costs. I'll be considering this.
How do water damage indicators work with this?

Not really happy that it's only Level II, but my phone is on the way.
I wish with this kind of technology, phone manufacturers would just add this to their manufacturing processes. obviously no one would because it would be higher cost and less revenue from non covered accidental damage.... Sigh

Liquipel...
I got Liquipel on my iPhone 4 back in June and it’s saved it from getting destroyed at least three times. I even dropped it in a bubbling jacuzzi and it survived. I’ve been a believer ever since. You can’t tell anything has been done to it either, it comes back all clean in a nice metal container with a microfiber pouch. None of the water sensor stickers changed color when it got wet so even if it fails I can get a new phone on Apple. All in all I’d say its worth the $59. You no longer have to worry about losing a phone over a spilled drink or a little rain. Just makes you feel good.
Liquipel is going to be at CES again this year can’t wait to check out the show, I hear rumors of a machine doing free treatments at the show. :good:
Just wanted to take a minute to thank all the Devs and everyone that helped during my time with the Epic Touch. My company has issued me an (YUK) Iphone so I just could not justify spending the 80.00 per month keeping the Epic. I love android and hate apple so this was a tough decision but felt I had to give it a go. I did get 280.00 for the epic with Best Buys buy back program ( best 35.00 I ever spent) and may end up back with a Galaxy s 3 but for now it is Iphone only. I almost threw up typing that. Thanks again for the great fun and all the help, I still HATE APPLE.

As ashamed I am I have to admit that I have an iPhone as well.
And it's isued by the company as well.
But too many people in too many places have my personal phone number so it's not that easy for me to move to another number (lucky me).
So I run around with 2 phones.
And since we have a family plan it's not $80 for me but rather 20 or 30. I can take it.
Hope you will be back soon.
Sorry to see that you must leave and hope that you come back to us. I also had an iPhone for about 6 months when I changed jobs. I am pretty much just like Agat said. But luckily I was able to switch the iPhone for an S3 a few weeks ago. So all is right again Anyway good luck in your endeavors!

They had a buy back program that cost 35.00 if you use their insurance which was 9.99 per month. They will buy back the phone at a percent of the original value, not the contract value when you get ready to trade it in. The phone sells for 699.00 at Best Buy without contract so I got 280.00 to sell it back after 11 months. They have canceled this program and only allow current buy back customers to take advantage of it. I can see why they discontinued it.
