Could I port my number from VM to MetroPCS when I get a S3 or would i just be easier to get a new number and send a mass text to everyone letting them know that this is my new number?

Love it.

Would be even better if I could get the 32gb version for $529 but I'm fine with 16gb. I have a 32gb card already anyway.

Yea, 16GB is more than good enough for me. I am so hyped about this phone! I bet I'm going to be the first one on my block to buy it.. Might be like that for a while, lol. They should give me a discount just for that. I can't waiiiiit !

Bloody Hell. Metro, you must be related to the Marques de Sade, 'cause you are a sadistic S.O.B., torturing us and making us beg for our S3.

Well, not to be left out....

PLEASE, RELEASE THE !@#$ ALREADY.

Ahh, that was much better. Now all I have to do is get the restraining order lifted from my Metro PCS for bugging them every day about the S3 and all will be well.

I'm also planning on buying me a case and a few screen protectors for it. I really want the "Pebble Blue" one. I hope the white one won't be the only color option available :|

I noticed that the same phone has different development on different carriers. Would our gs3 be affected by metro? For example, no paranoid android for us?

actually pg told me everything should work fine for our s3 just make sure its for the sch-r530 model and not that other I something basically all that would have to be done is be ported over which if u didnt know by now most of all the mods on our esteems are ported from elese where like from the xda forums which u well see we dont even have a esteem section over there but yet we keep getting all those mods lol

I heard verizons model had an ota recently that locked it up disabling the root exploit. I hope ours don't come shipped with that.

Unless metropcs decides to do this than no. Verizon can't mess with our phone.

Well we were lucky metro at least made it public this time with the Esteem only people in the forums knew it was coming months before so this time around we are lucky to at least know the s3 will be coming

I suppose when the S3 becomes available from Metro the Lightray should go down to a more realistic price range no higher than $399 or so.

AT&T currently sells the S3 for full price @ 549.99 for the 16gb version. Sounds about right to me. Maybe with rebates Metro can get it down to $500 before tax.

I agree with you about the ashtray oops sorry lightray lol at this point the ashtray has been a flop no surprise there one of my contacts told me that the ashtray its pretty much done I had the same concern you had so remember metro doesn't always does things that make sense lol
