the gs4 looks exactly the same as gs3 but the camera is 13mpx instead of 8 or 9 i think and has a better RAM so it faster.. i want a size in between the gs4 and note2 lol

I've loved most of what I got on the S3 but the S Note was cumbersome. If I'm in a meeting and someone starts to rattle off names and numbers or condition report numbers, I couldn't access the program and tap out as fast as the meeting was going. I saw another supervisor with his Note 2 pull his S Pen and the program flew open to a new blank note and he simply started to write. I played with his Note 2 and realized that this what was missing from the S3.

The S3 screen size was fine for me, but the larger Note 2 screen was also better for writing and reading pdf and word documents. I keep procedures and word forms on my phone for in field use, and with the 5.5"screen of the Note 2, again, it's better.

The split screen of the Note 2 and the upcoming S4 is a great feature that once you see, you'll fall in love with! Open an email while in a word doc and copy/paste sections. This is great!

I'm not desiring to carry a full on tablet and a phone, so the note gets me closer to what I need to be as efficient as possible.

I honestly would have waited until October for the Note 3, but my son's Thunderbolt is nearly dead. The warranty is expired and I can't see paying the $90 deductible to use Assurion for an advanced device claim on a phone that is essentially obsolete. I passed the S3 to him.

For some users, a large phone (phablet?) Like this would be a no way situation. For me, being how I use my phone as my main Internet and forum access device and also for work and taking notes, it's a great thing.

The S4 will not have the S Pen. As such, is more like the S3 than the Note 2. They are targeted at different demographics in my opinion.

I'll likely move to the next Note 3 once it's released assuming there are some added features that have meaning to me. But for now I feel that I've got the very best PDA phone for me.

While the S4 does have a larger screen than the S3 (and full HD at that), you have me on the pen. Good reasoning if you're against a true tablet. I would tend to want a Nexus tablet for that stuff.

It does appear that Tahseen is upset with some of my St. Patrick's escapades. I may have made an obscene gesture in his direction while being severly intoxicated (fyi..finishing a case of Killians with 2 other guys in 2 hrs is hard work) when we were walking to Station Square. To my defense, 20% tint windows are great for hiding the contents of a car.
