Questions you would like answered.

Yes there is a flashing blue led indicator.

yep switched mine on, its cool. one more feature i love

Does the LED light stay on when charging w/ red or orange for not fully charged and Green for charge complete, like htc? It's something I've missed from the evo, since I upgraded to the mopho last year.

Ok I asked but no answer, sooooo I'll ask on this one. How many gigs does the phone come with after bloatware?

I remember seeing your question asked somewhere else. So I'm glad you asked here. This time you may actually get an answer.

I'm surprised none of the UK folks have answered yet. I'd like to know as well. And how the memory is partitioned.

what about audio quality on the GN2? I use my ipod touch to listen to music, but intend to switch to this once I get it.

Will definately root and mod (maybe not an AOSP rom, but definately something customized). That script sounds interesting, but I would be concerned about the IO latency. If all storage references are switched, then I would think that all file IO would suffer and cause the phone to lag. Do you have a link?

There are a few of them over in xda that are actually for the Note 10.1 but I talked to the devs and they are working on a version for the Note 2. here and here

Why must they continue to torture me?!?!?

I really love that site, I love Aarons and Taylors reviews and posts. Aarons current 30 day Note II challenge is driving me nuts with all the good things he is saying about the Note II.

Nice

On a side note, this seems promising for all ROM junkies like me:

I've read reviews that said sound quality is phenomenal. I think louder than the GS3.
Gosh....how many days til the announcement now?

I saw on another forum some time ago someone had a countdown ticker (like a stock exchange ticker) on their phone and I could kick myself for forgotting to ask where he got it from. Haven't found anything like it in the market.

I'd be SO cool if Phandroid could post a countdown timer to the Note 2 announcement (Oct 24th) on the homepage. Now THAT would give us just a little more reason to salivate.

Pretty sure that wyndslash had made some comments before that she is somewhere in Korea. It was regarding the comments I made about how the phone looks ridiculously humongous...LOL. Of course, that wouldn't really make sense because it released in Korea first already, so not sure what she was referring to.

Even though I was reading a thread on XDA the other day talking about how a screen protector could be "bad" for the Note 2, I couldn't resist and pre-ordered...LOL:

Really hope this doesn't change when launched in the US. I miss my VoodooSound!

I hope that, if they do, Sprint offers NBA 2K13 because of their exclusive contract with the NBA...LOL.

What were the reasons that it would be bad? I just ordered the screen protectors and a few cases so I am all set for buying it ASAP! I'm a walking disaster so I need really good cases and screen protectors. In fact I need screen protectors for sunglasses... Those are always getting scratched LOL

Hahaha...honestly, I don't know. Apparently, it says something about it in the Note 2 manual, but there were many also saying that they haven't experienced any issues so far. It was in the Note 2 Accessories thread on XDA

I love SGP's screen protectors and have used them for every device that I've had that SGP made a screen protector for, so I'll be using it on my Note 2 regardless.

I ordered these as well today....I have always used the Spigen SGP screen protectors. they are the best out there in my opinion. When clean, they are as clear as the screen itself and very durable.

I even find them easier to clean than the regular glass.

Oh...LOL...Okay, so you're a Pinay sista! Good stuff. I didn't want to assume, based on the release article that came out, but that's the only other guess I had...hahaha.
