• After 15+ years, we've made a big change: Android Forums is now Early Bird Club. Learn more here.
I anticipate a steep learning curve, personally. It would be nice to RTFM before the thing arrives in 2 weeks.

Some crazy calling features which are definitely geared towards business people:

Manage conference call
: Have a private conversation with one party during a
multiparty call or disconnect one party form the multiparty call.




Also, no phone I have used had this feature. Don't know if I will use it but its cool:
Sending scheduled messages
While composing a message, tap
→
Scheduling
. Set a time and date, and then tap
Done
.The device will send the message at the specified time and date.

Cool. page 29 (Panning to Browse). I've never heard of a feature like that. I want to try it! sounds cool. This phone sounds more and more cool the more pages I read.

Ok. Then I moved through to page 32. I love all those air gestures and movements. Not sure how long it will take to remember them. But it feels like something out of the Iron Man movies where he's moving things around and tossing them on those flat panel displays.

NICE!

Finally finished the manual. Knox is too volatile for me, but I so look forward to this phone! 18 days to go! :D

I had emailed them through the Samsungknox website, regarding notifications, and the one thing I was intrigued by is that they said all notifications would still show up on the notification bar, regardless of which mode you're in. I might end up using it, but depends on whether my IT guy feels it's necessary.

I need to read more about it. At quick glance it Seemed cool. And with my stuff backed up with TB, even a remote wipe seems reasonable.

It SEEMS cool... but the manual says that if someone makes too many login attempts, Knox will essentially self destruct and delete all the apps and data in it. Good grief!

Yeah, that scared me a bit also, but then I watched this video on youtube by the company that partnered with Samsung to create Knox

Overview of Samsung Knox's Mobile Single Sign-On Features - YouTube

I'm wondering if it can be customized, through that web portal, so that Knox doesn't completely wipe the data, but just lock the phone up instead and only be possible to unlock through IT. It would be so strange to me, if they didn't provide IT departments the flexibility to change that protocol.

I know that for my work files, it would definitely not be cool if those files got wiped.
