I will follow the release of the S3 if it comes to Verizon and hope they choose a chipset that plays nice on CDMA. I don't care how great an Android device it is. If it's not reliable as a phone, then it's worthless to me.
Same here I am on verizon with a DX patiently waiting/wanting to upgrade. This seems like it may be the first "big phone" to hit this summer and I might pull the trigger but I have never owned a samsung before. I probably would have already bought the GNex if it wasn't for the poor batter and signal issues.
