Hey guys, got my Galaxy Note yesterday and loving it! Obviously, since am a smartphone noob, have not even used 0.5% of its functionality yet, but I like whatever I have used so far. And all those worried about how big it is need not worry- slips easy as pie into a pocket and the free flip cover they provide is uber-useful!

Got it off Letsbuy.com for 32,700/- and it's supposed to include a free Jabra BT headset which did not get shipped (will check with them, it's a much needed accesory if you ask me). In fact this model is selling like hot cakes and most retail stores in Pune are selling it at MRP (35K) so I got a sweet deal in the end. Had booked it late last week, so got it pretty quickly.

Congrats Man. Slips into pocket really easy. My Boss does not leave that at all. In one hand he has a cigarette and other he keeps browsing in the Note. The Flip Cover is really useful accesory

And the price of Note seems to be increasing day by day. First phone was for 28.5k + Octroi (Sulekha Deals) in Pune. Second one in office was for Rs 33k.

Currently i am using SGS2 on which i have over clocked my processor to 1.6GHZ. It works like a charm and battery backup is really great.

(by every droid i mean all models) if your phone doesnt hve this problem, this does not mean this problem does not exist. the first time my phone died on me, I was totally cracked! I scrounged internet and then came to know about this wonderful property (or should we call it a feature) of Android and the wonderful thing called fragmentation and how that is single handedly the biggest headache of all the ODMs (Original Device Manufacturers). it is the reason why my droid is not going to see ICS before 6 months (by that time ICS would be too old) and theres another statistic that says 7 out of 18 mobiles never see the latest android in their life!

I have turned off all updates. But if the master control in Data Manager turns off all data, shouldn't it just stop is completely.
I am finding the configuration in Android a little cumbersome, there are exceptions for some things you do and are not honest and straightforward.
