Anyone feel like the S2 will not be as unique anymore in months to come due to its US release?

Hey guys. Just wondering if anyone feels sort of the same way as me.

I spent around $650 USD and waited 3 months (from when the official international UK version was released) to purchase the S2 from overseas. Now the phone is going to become released in the U.S.

A part of me feels sort of disappointed and excited, yet I should be very happy now that it is available here (finally!!!). I guess I just wanted a phone where it wasn't too popular in the states. A part of spending a large amount of money (with no binding contract to a carrier) gave me a sense of uniqueness in that I was "one of few" to actually have this phone. Also, the forums here are quite valuable with so many users that I feel like I am part of a special S2 community...but with the announcement of this phone in the U.S., it seems like everyone "else" (yes, all the "other" people... you name it, they've got it) would eventually have it. I guess you can't help but wonder how special your phone is, heh.

I suppose I like to have electronic devices that is rare. Thus, when someone sees you off the street holding a S2, their impression would be like "Woah. That is cool. What is that?" But I guess in a few months, people would be more like "Is that the S2? Here's mine, too. And all my friends have it!"

Anyone feel the same way, heh? :(

I couldn't care less what sort of phone other people have. I know for a fact that in 3-6 months something better will come out that will over shadow the S2 thats the way it goes with phones or any other electronic device these days. Make no mistake though the S2 is a hell of a phone and I am very happy I got one no matter how many other people have it.

I get a kick out of seeing other people using the same phone, it makes me pleased that they are having as much fun as me!

Sorry but you are using the phone as a status feature. I have been using the SG2 for months now on AT&T and am looking forward to AT&T getting it. IT will be different as it will have the typical 4 touch screen buttons at the bottom of the phone instead of the one button.

I like the phone for what it does for me and most people around me could care less what I am using.

Oh boy I wouldn't swap my SG II for that monster!!! Unless it was to sell it and then quickly get another SG II and one for all the family lol
 
I live in Chicago . . . if someone saw me using my S2 on the street i'd be concerned that I was up for a mugging ! ! !
Anyway, the iPhone 5 will be out in the Fall and then all the identicrowd will have those instead.
