Side note (pun intended), the "Note" is the worst ing device name ever for a line of premium tech products. Da were they thinking?
You're not going to be pleased with Samsung's approach, then.
It seems that they're rebranding the Note as their high-end tablet line, considering the Note 8.0 that came out this year and Note 10.1 refresh everybody's expecting.
Their Galaxy Tab line used to be their high-end tablet products, but the specs of the 3.0 Tabs that came out this year imply they're rebranding these as lower-cost products. The impact of the Nexus 7 line being the best quality tablets at relatively low prices is what probably caused this change in approach.

yeah but those stylus's from what i've seen just mimmick a finger. I read that jobbs said it would be a failure if the iphone ended up using a pen. But, it I think it was kinda flawed, there is a difference between using a stylus as a tool to navigate everyithing and using it as an accessory to streamline the experience. Is it innovative to bring a stylus back? No. It's just one of those things that make common sense and should have been done earlier.
That was all I was saying. I have no beef with the stylus. If you used pressure-sensitive styluses on Wacom tablets (who created that and holds most of the patents), you know they're great for that kind of stuff.
so what happens to all the fingerprint data they collect? sell to NSA? and put you on the criminal database just for future references?
lol one world govt coming sooner then expected
There are plenty of articles and statements from Apple that state the fingerprint data never leaves a secure area the device, if you had bothered to look, or think.
so apple is going to break into my house and steal my iphone to get my fingerprint from my phone, which will start a one world government being run by the NSA?
I have a note 2 and its not just a "pen" it does have controls on it where i can highlight things and copy and paste etc...its not just one of them stylus's u can order from amazon for 1 buck and use on an iphone.I'm not arguing there's anything wrong with having a pen. You can even buy one of those for iPhones/iPads. There's simply nothing novel or "innovative" about it.
That was the standard since the Palm Pilot days, and what you see today is just an evolution of that. Innovative was multi-touch and gestures that let you actually use the devices fully *without* a pen (if you were a palm pilot user, you know exactly what I mean)
Nobody said $1 styluses... the SPen is a bluetooth pressure-sensitive pen with a button. Just like Pogo Connect ($80), Jot Touch 4 ($90), Wacom Intuos ($99), etc.
^ Exactly
What's innovative about the pen? The "highlight" and "copy & paste" is all software, which is exactly what I pointed out to Teysha. If Palm Pilot would be around today, that's exactly what you would expect an evolution of it to look like.
at 1AM Best Buy's site had In Store Pickup for the 5s as an option, reserved one. Woke up at 5AM for work and it was no longer an option... In store sales only. It does state my order cannot be canceled so we'll see if it works
Palm Pilot was innovative. Samsung, by returning this useful tool and developing the software, is innovating in a market that refused to do the same. lol highlight, copy&paste reduction. I annotate legal forms from home. I do all kinds of with maps and notes with them for visiting execs, writers and producers.
I'm doing zero of these things with the iPhone or virtually any android phone. It's Sammy's game and they own it.
I hope you're trying to get a gold one.at 1AM Best Buy's site had In Store Pickup for the 5s as an option, reserved one. Woke up at 5AM for work and it was no longer an option... In store sales only. It does state my order cannot be canceled so we'll see if it works
nah, but it is ready for pickup. i doubt any third party stores had many of them tbh
There's a line of old people in front of the Verizon store...its like they are picking up thier social security checks or something.
Still dont really get your point..just a bunch of ifs and woulda coulda's. U still comparing a $1 stylus pen that has no technology that u can buy for iphones to a s-pen...and that's crazy.
I was reading this morning that most Apple stores only had about 10 or less gold models in stock.

fingerprint scanner works near instantly, pretty nice.
Best Buy also gave me $225 for my 4s with the non-working power button. They didn't even check it
Score!!!Best Buy also gave me $225 for my 4s with the non-working power button. They didn't even check it
daaaang. that's a 16gb 5s right there, with 25 extra bucks to pick up 50 tacos from jack in the boxBest Buy also gave me $225 for my 4s with the non-working power button. They didn't even check it
my buddy has an IBM associate account from a while back and he gets yearly upgrades - his 32Gb White 5s is fetching him $360
You mean iPhone 5? And is it through BB, because I would think an iPhone 5 could fetch $450 on ebay/CL/kijiji
