Have you seen anyone else with a Note yet?

Girl sat next to me in the coffee shop the other day and spotted my Note, asked;
"Is that an iPad?"
I said;
"Yes, I have very long arms and it looks small 'cause it's further away than you're imagining... How you doin'?";)


I've seen a few Notes in the wild, and about half had women hanging off them; so either they're lying when they size isn't important, or the Note being 'too big' was always just nay-sayers getting it wrong all along.

lol I'm still amazed that people ask me if it's an iPad. Really? It's big but it's not that big.

either way the attention is fun. I tell them yes, yes it is lol

Yeah I usually get the "that phone is huge" or "is that an iPad?" comments.


I finally ran into someone at a party who had one, he's a friend of our drummer. He was talking about launchers and what a good deal he got with his bundle etc. I felt bad telling him I bought 2 of them for 150 bucks each lol.

I ended up borrowing his charger so my phone wouldn't discharge as I played music through the surround sound with the screen constantly on.

Saw a bag boy at the grocery store talking on one during his break. Just so happens the AT&T store is next door and the funny thing is they actually push the GS2 over the Note. When i bought mind they did not even have a display yet it was just plugged into a charger sitting on the counter. It seems they actually push the iPhone and the GS2 more then any other device.

I haven't seen anyone with one yet, but then again I don't really get out much. :) But the little I do get out, 2 people (both waiters/waitresses) asked what my Note was, and were impressed. I like the attention it gets... probably the attention people got when the iPhone first came out. But Samsung is advertising this thing so much.... soon most people will know what it is, and the shock value of seeing one in person won't be so big.

The first day I had my white note I saw another guy come into the waiting room with another white one. I was talking on mine at a stop light the other day and a car next to me pulled up and everyone started laughing. I just thought it was funny that it got such a reaction. People seem to think it is ridiculous until they hold it and behold the screen.

All my iPhone friends have had almost the same exact reaction, "Is that a phone?!?" :)
