i am starting to get a bit worried myself to be honest. between the lack of advertisement (you barely hear about this phone) and the lack of accessories, i am really hoping that this doesn't end up being a flop.
I've heard the advertisement concern a few times, but I'm not sure why. I've seen a bunch of TV commercials here in Atlanta for it. And that's even with DVR'ing almost all of our shows.

In RI, most AT&T stores don't even carry them. A lot don't even have the phone on display! I had to make a special trip to a town out of my way to pick this phone up, and they even said they only get about 2 at a time

Advertising is one thing...I'm talking actual sales numbers....development and testing of new firmware cost LG big bucks and they aren't gonna do it for a" small" crowd. They are busy right now planning the release of the successor to.this phone to compete with Sammy I'm sure and to iron out the wrinkles in this their first high-end smartphone designed to compete with the big wigs...just saying
Just look at these forums...ghost towns....I have a nexus 4 and an s3 and there is no comparison when it comes to traffic!

I would say at max in the U. S. 50-70k units have moved... honestly im guessing more in the realm 18,366 units as of last tuesday... but thats only wild speculation.

If they want to be taken seriously they will have to do something. If not, they might as well stop trying to sell mobile phones in the USA.

Hard to really say. I don't know of any official numbers but, I think I was the first person to get mine at the local best buy and that was a month after it launched.
Since then my brother and girlfriend have both gotten one.
I'm still a bit nervous about a lack of developers.

i see ads on tv all the time here in south florida and there arent many on our craiglist but its loaded with sgs3 and note 2 haha i think most folks dont really know about it i didint know untill i actually went to buy the note to and saw it on display and after playing with both devices i chose the optimus g and would do it again if given the choice i think lg got a bad name in the begining but the og is one heck of a device
My att store had taken the display off the shelf. Not really sure why. The sales person also didn't realize the HTC 1X+ was in the store and on display.
I am still looking for a case.

So last Friday i went to my local att store with the full intention of getting the Note but naturally i wanted to try having some fun with the reps. I told them i was wanting a new phone and then asked them what is the best phone. Turns out the iphone 4s is the best. When i asked why i was told it has siri and a retina display. (no one there could tell me why the retina display was so amazing) At that point i decided not to attempt to troll them as it would have been pointless. Fast forward and im at the checkout buying the Note. While checking out the rep tells me how the phone has a 1080p screen. At this point i couldn't help myself i asked if it was better than the iphones retina..short anwser no it is not. Anyways im now a proud owner of the only 1080p galaxy note. lol

Haha I love messing with the reps there never gets old. I was there last week and the sales rep trying to sell me the phone was unaware of the different processor the ATt has over the international model to comidate LTE. I could write a book from going in there and talking to them. My gf always tells me to take it easy before we head in lol.
Best part was when i was walking out someone was complaining to the rep about being throttled. I noticed he had the infuse and after the rep told him they couldn't do anything about it i made it a point to tell him how to fix it. Once again the rep told the man what i was saying wouldnt work and against the tos. Needless to say he is no longer throttled lol.

I was at a corporate one. I don't mean to sound like an ass i just think its funny. To be honest if i worked there i would recommend iphones and act ignorant of cell phone tech. The vast majority of people would just get confused otherwise. When people get confused they feel dumb and when they feel dumb they get offended and end up leaving and making their purchase elsewhere.

AT&T corporate store employees make more on iPhones, indirect agents (authorized retailers) make nothing on iPhone sales.. not even the data plans. So it really depends what type of store you're in. Personally I enjoy when someone knows the tech they're talking about. Although it is quite funny watching people try to convince me the iPhone is better than everything else.

You have some more research to do. The skyrocket & note are unique in this way.
Just remember that for most people that work at those places they could give a **** about most everything there, they are just trying to do their job. Those stores have high turnaround in alot of cases and employees aren't required to know everything about devices.
And technically going by ppi the 4S is better. He couldn't tell you why though. And i would rather have the Notes screen that the tiny iPhone any day.

Samsungs is easily bypassable. Which is where I plan on going. And it's not like "htc's unlockable" BL does all that much good. If it did we wouldn't need to s-off.

Well, it started with the many replacements of the tbolt, then HTC's hard stance against updating their tablets kinda pushed me over the edge, then they updated the flyer/view to broken software and they wont even fix it. Now the Rezound is having touchscreen issues. So I'm just tired of dealing with the problems and the lack of OEM support after purchase. I appreciate the Dev community for the zound, but sammy seems to be stronger in that dept. So I think I am going to give them a shot. I won't touch Moto with a ten foot pole. It may be a bad move, but I'm willing to take that risk after all the issues I have had recently with HTC. So for me, from here on out, it's going to be Nexus, or Samsung.
Samsung is worse.
I love my Rez and I still think of it as probably one of the, if not the most undervalued android phone released to date, but I don't see myself going for yet another carrier exclusive device after this. Of course, reviews might be so great for the DNA that I could change my mind but so far I am not that impressed.
Having said that however, the lack of a LTE capable Nexus 4 kinda limits the options for those looking to upgrade atm and I really cant see myself with a Galaxy S device. Wish Sony would be given a chance at penetrating the US market, they seem to strike a fair balance between corporate dev support, hardware and software quality.
I'll be getting this. The hardware and build quality will be top notch, it can be unlocked through HTCs dev website and be able to load cm. It was between this and the note but son, I am dissapoint at it having the older gen exynos and 720p screen on a 5.5 inch screen.
no, my next phone will be honor 2 or note 2
battery is important factor to me now

Its looking like ill most likely be getting it. I'm thinking ill be getting the DNA and one other new gen phone probably a GSM phone since I have two contracts, one with ATT and one with Verizon.
But I will be more careful than usual with this purchase. I'm currently so broke I can't afford the down payment on a grilled cheese sandwich. But this phone is a priority, and I owe it to the BAMF community. So I've been saving my pennies and will be selling some stuff to raise some funds.

my rezound, when its not pulling 4g in my house (which the nexus and GS3 CAN'T), pulls atleast half a meg to a meg per second. doing anything on the gs3 on 3g is terrible, and ridiculously slow. fb app won't even load. rezound loads it no problem. hell, i even tethered 3 tablets to my rezound last night and while we were all browsing at the same time, ti was STILl faster than my gs3
i don't think i'd buy antoher samsung phone ever again, and i really want the DNA...dunno if i wanna fork out 600 bones for it tohugh
Sad to say my gf traded her note yesterday after paying retail for it 4 months ago, she traded for an iPhone. :banghead:
But here's the deal. She traded thru craigslist, we all met at att to get new sim cards, i told my gf to drop the ins on the note (I sat in the car) when she was done she said the clerk was trying to reset it because it was used and because its jail broken, the reset was talking forever so they aborted. The clerk than said that they can transfer the ins from the note to the iPhone, I wasn't aware that they could ins a used device not too mention its jailbroken which they're aware of. Secondly, the iPhone was adverticed as a 5 month old 4s, after some research I found out that its an iPhone 4, and it could be years old. She doesn't seem to care but I do...she got ripped off. She thinks he bought it used and was under the impression it was a 4s. Sorry guys, this has been bugging me since last night. I'm still surprised that its covered by ins, but I wonder about the warranty?

I didn't notice your second portion on your first reply "why didn't I check it out? Well, I stayed in the car the whole time, figured we could trust this guy since apparently we know each other from years ago and that we have mutual friends. It didn't even cross my mind that it may not be a 4s until we got home. To the untrained iPhone eye you can't tell the 4 apart from the 4s...there is only 2 physical differences that I know of, 1 is that the 4s has 4 black stripes around the edges were as the 4 only had 3. The other one (just learned today) is the volume switch is in a slightly different location.

HTC one x you can get for a very reasonable price just have to deal with piss poor battery life(my own personal experience maybe you will have different experience) also if you have 350 from your og note you should be able to find a gs3 for not that much more maybe like $50 more on eBay. You may miss the big screen(as if 4.8 is small Lol) but the amount if development on the s3 more than makes up for it.

I had a somewhat simular experience when I bought my Note. The sales rep at the first AT&T store I went to told me I was not yet eligible for an upgrade, based on whatever database he consulted. That was different from what my previous sales receipt said. Rather than argue I went to a different AT&T store in another part of town and found a sales rep that would listen to my side of the argument. She called the mother ship to talk to someone with the right authority and kept the conversation going until I got the Note I wanted. Based on that experience I would suggest trying a different location. Reliance on finding a sympathetic sales rep is NOT a business model I would condone, but this time that strategy worked.

Any indications? I have only seen a few people out and about with the N2, much more s3s. Verizon is so picky about picking up phones, I don't want any problems with them getting the Note 3. Now only if they weren't the last one to get it like the Note 2.....

I think they sold great. I saw many many people in my daily commute trains with Note 2. Surprisingly, many are girls with verizon white version.
I see people with N2s all the time. Might be areas had less advertising? I do see people with more S3s than n2s though. I would say I actually see more samsung phones than iphones now a days.

Mostly based on area for that it's the other way around for me only seeing iPhones everywhere I go but see maybe 2 Android phones.

Exactly, I see more Sammy phones in my area than iPhones now. Before the release of the S3 and Note 2 it was the other way around. I predominantly see people with AT&T and VZW Note 2's, a few S3's, and maybe 1 iPhone on my trips to town. In fact my local VZW store only keeps 2 iPhones of each size/color in store because they sell so slowly.
Honestly I think the N2 on VZW sold like hotcakes. Possibly as good or, hopefully, better than the S3.

Check Craigslist. Used GN2's STILL sell for $500+. I like to bounce around phones and try them all. What's the point when the N2 does everything? I'll probably switch to the S4 soon but that's not to say I wont get the N3 when it comes out. Samsung is doing it right.
Apple is losing market share, HTC is barely hanging on (sealed battery doors and no expandable memory - WTF??), and Motorola is doing it's thing. They build great phones but the locked bootloader is a NO for me...although Google is in bed with them now and recently someone "cracked" the HD/M military grade bootloader so we need to watch out for new stuff from Moto. But my money is still on Sammy. Same for my Allshare Cast, GN10.1, laptop, and TV.

I don't think that well. Two months after the release VZW knocked down the price $100. doesn't seem like they would do that if it was selling really well.
Every verizon store I went to in greater Orlando area never had some left. The flipcases for white were always also sold out but they had plenty of the itanium or whatever flips and 1-3 of those in stock.
Also on swappa theyre selling fast...and on ebay too so! Its doing well. Maybe some like me ordered oem parts and did a part switch to remove branding or its just hidden behind the flip/case.
Everytime I pull out the phone people comment about it, so I decided to stop bieng vzws free advertising.

I mean they don't sell as well as the galaxy s3 but we still sell around 10 per week. We sell more note 2's than htc DNAs or Motorola RAZR HDs.

Obviously sold well, I purchased one!
I do see the note and note II everywhere. Makes me happy.

Not sure where you're getting your info, but it's still selling at the release price of $299.99 and it's 5 months out. They might have run a sale or special on it at some point, but the website still lists it at $299.99 right now. It's more expensive than the S4.

I think that price is the only thing keeping it from retail bliss. Everyone who doesn't want the note to begin with thinks its an oversized S3. So....they would go for the s3 at 50 bucks versus 4x as much for what they think is nearly identical....when its not.

I purchased one also, and at full damned price! My main reason for that was because VZW and Sammy refused to acknowledge the radio issues, which made the S3 unusable at my house while the Note 2 gets as good if not better service than the Motorola phones I have used, and when I asked if they would send a different S3 out for me to test and see if it was just an issue with my phone they refused and offered to send me an original Razr...... I decided that I wanted to keep my unlimited, I had an upgrade, and actually be able to use my phone to make calls so I gave in and bought the Note 2.
I must say that this is the first phone I have been 100% happy with after using it for 3 or 4 months, usually something better has come out and I get fed up with the bugs but with the N2 I can fix the bugs myself, what few there are, and it is the first phone that has actually fit my hands perfectly.
This phone sold like hotcakes when it first came out in my town, for the first 6 months they would sell out the day they got their shipment of them in the store. They sold so fast here that the store had a list of people wanting it and they would call when they got a shipment, it takes me ten minutes to get to the stores and by the time I would get there they were all gone. Walmart and Radioshack were also always sold out so I finally just had to give in and order it off Verizons website. They still sell extremely quick here but now they usually have at least 1 by the time their next shipment I comes in.

That's awesome. I'm glad so many people are seeing the light over Iphones. My gf wants a new phone she has the iPhone 4 I think I convinced her to get a S4

The typical font size on the Note is definitely easier on the eyes than the iPhone or even 4.3"screens for me. My vision isn't bad to the point where I need reading glasses, but when I switch between phones the size of the Note is really easy to like.

I was at the vet the other day and this old man was there talking about how he was turning 85. Then he pulls out his iphone and starts showing me pictures. I pull my n2 out and he's like "is that the Galaxy note 2 or the S4?!?" He said he was so tired of how simple his iphone was and wanted to switch. Was so surprised someone his age new so much about phones. This guy was a true techie. Lol

He sounds like my grandfather... the man is a genius with windows, especially for being 72. Its funny how many people start looking out of the corner of their eyes when the note 2 comes out to play lol.
