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!


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.

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.

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.

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??

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