no an online store called Canadagsm.ca

$583 USD or something.

$670 CAD inc tax and overnight shipping via UPS. i actually got the phone before they emailed me a shipping notice lol!
:fuckyea:

they only take Paypal, they have another site called SNTraders that takes Credit card, but prices are higher there.

Rogers being the cheapest locally wants $700 + tax for a locked phone and 1 month of $50 service.:rukidding::lawl::heckno:

but holy shit this monster eats batteries. 4 Hrs of hard use and its down to 28%

Does your Note have the AT&T logo on the front?
It doesn't say anything about AT&T on the Canadagsm site

did you even see the photo i posted??? ^^^

and no it doesnt say Carrier like the photo on their site, its branded AT&T at the top in mirrored/silver letters with the globe logo also mirrored.

same as the SAMSUNG name at the bottom.

weird, i had to trim a teensy bit of plastic off the housing or the rear would not stay on. its all good now.

no shit, i cant put this white bitch down. reading Mangas on this is teh win!

I flashed the Saurom ROM on it and clocked it down to 1.3 Ghz and -50mA to see if that extends my battery life.

say, was there some Mobilicity outage today, i couldnt make or recieve calls from 3-5.

3G worked fine tho.

EDIT: yes the network was down for a few hrs yesterday.

terkan 04-12-2012 09:21 PM

is there no unbranded white i717 available?? i'm not digging the AT&T on the top :( but i want a white :alone:

terkan 04-12-2012 09:27 PM

or maybe i should just grab one from rogers for 649.99+tax.. it's locked.. but at least don't have the stupid at&t logo on it.. and i get 12 month warranty=\

coz it's 779.99 on their webpage for no terms vs 649 on rogers page.. dunno if store have different pricing etc... and since i'm on rogers anyways i don't have to bother unlocking it at this time.. i'm soo out of the phone loop nowadays :( anyone know if i have to upgrade my 6gb data to a LTE data in order to use the LTE with rogers? since i heard there's extra fee to use LTE? but i read somewhere you upgrade the 6gb data to 6gb lte data.. or is it just the same?

Psykopathik 04-13-2012 07:03 AM

Rogers is the cheapest right now. you will need to buy 1 month of service too and pay activation. if you're lucky you can sweet talk em out of it. FS wouldnt let me even buy outright till next week or so.

isnt the Rogers one branded with Rogers logo?

IMO the silver on white is hardly even noticeable.

604nguyen 04-13-2012 08:21 AM

^no rogers branding on the phone itself....the rogers logo only comes up on the boot screen

I'm pretty certain my plan with rogers has 1GB lte data, but Im only using it with a S2 so im just using HSPA+.

If I get a LTE phone like the Note, do I just pop in my SIM card and I get LTE data? I read somewhere you need a LTE-Sim card??

Gh0stRider 04-13-2012 02:52 PM

You need an LTE-ready device and you also need an LTE-ready SIM card

i did a speedcheck on my bell note yesterday and got 17Mbps DL and 6Mbps UL. faster than my home internet connection!!

shenmecar 04-14-2012 06:01 PM

The upload speed is twice my home internet upload speed
