I am unhappy of the single, mono speaker. This is just silly in a top quality device. No lagging in my hands for any application.

Thanks for the vid and all the input.
I CAN HANDLE THE SIZE ... but I'm not sue about my pocket.
They're average sized, and the SGS fits in nicely but when crouched/sitting it becomes a chore to take it out of my jeans.
So I'm divided by the price (c'mon Samsung just a tad lower) and the size (if it fits in my pocket).
The other thing is the navigational buttons (Back, Home, Menu) how will it work with the (soon) update to I.C.S ?? (wont it look funny having two sets of navi-buttons especially when one set sacrifices screen estate)

Another thing I don't like (but I can live with it) is the physical home button. Menu and Back are touch buttons, while the center home is physical and needs a definite pressure to get activated. Why this button?
Loudspeaker volume is enough to scare old ladies - but it's by no means good for music.

The strange oscillation between cold and warm colors has stopped. It's evening: maybe it's related to the sunlight effect on the light sensor?
I love that the browser has some of its own settings. Well, the browser's pretty amazing generally.
I couldn't ever go back to a smaller screen now, not even 4.3".
Absolutely love this phone! Very awkward to use one-handed, but then so was the N900. The only issue I've got with the size of the Note is when I have to use another (inevitably smaller) phone!

Another thing I am absolutely loving is the perfect A2DP performance. I am streaming some good jazz to my stereo amp through a Nokia BH-214 adapter while writing this post, browsing the Net and stuff, and there's absolutely NO LAG, NO STUTTERING, nothing.
With the Galaxy Tab 7 there was some, even if I renice'd those bluetooth and media processes. Now, none. Wonderful.

So, fixed on these newfangledphones?

Two thumbs typing in landscape mode is easy, because it just large to allow reaching all keys.
