Nice upgrade

Multi Window!!!!!!!!!!!

Woohoo, me too. As if real handwriting recognition wasn't enough, true multi tasking apps in multi view is enough to shame all other phones without exception!

I know, Samsung need an award or something for this phone!

dasyad · 5 Oct 2012 at 10:38

Played with one of these yesterday and oh mama :cool:

Just need the slew of Windows Phones to appear before making a firm decision either way.

can everyone stop telling us how nice this phone is

(until after i have got one)

Spit · 5 Oct 2012 at 10:50

Not going to happen Paul11, never has a phone brought together so many great components to form a fantastic coherent whole

Care to explain what multi window is??
Thanks

True multitasking. You can have 2 programs running side by side on the screen.

Being a bit new to Android, what is everyone using to actually populate the thing with music, photos etc. Samsung Kies is having a bit of a fit but I'd imagine that's the sheer volume it's struggling with.

Anything better out there.

Hold down back button and a sidebar will appear.
Drag and drop any selected app and you can have them side by side.

Go a bit of bad news for those waiting for the Grey Note 2 on contract. Just been speaking with a customer CSR from Mobile Phones Direct and they won't be getting stock today

We were supposed to be booking these handsets in to our warehouse today however unfortunately there has been a nation wide delay and we will now not have them until next Thursday. This is affecting all companies as far as we are aware and we were only informed of the situation this morning. We will be sending all customers an e-mail shortly. I do apologise about this.

Still so smooth with multi window. Very impressed! Is there anything this phone can't do well?

You have the exact combination of technological wonder that I would like by the end of the year

. Galaxy Note 2 should be by the end of the week, rMBP by December and Nexus 7 as soon as the rumoured 3G version turns up

More on-topic and addressed to all:

Are third-party contracts Data services still up to par with the networks themselves?

So for example the T-Mobile Full Monty deal through MPD.

Why is it that I can get this through MPD but not through T-Mobile directly?

can tether or not tether? Truly unlimited or fair usage?

There doesn't appear to be a way to edit and add new apps to the multi- window display, such as music.

I would love to have the ability to change albums and artists in the multi-window without having to go back to that app.

Just an update contrary to this message and its going to upset Duffman no doubt if true (sorry mate) but BuyMobiles.Net are showing both colours in stock and next day delivery now! GO>GO>GO

I cancelled my Mobilephonesdirect order and and ordered with them (again). 36 pounds Full Monty on T-Mobile in Grey.
