I've gotten phones from Bellingham BestBuy before. But as always they probably won't sell it to you outright when it first comes out.

Also I'm pretty sure we'll be getting the the Pebble Blue as well. Samsung Canada was demo-ing both the blue and white S III's to Future Shop.

Myself and others have been turned down before in the past and Simplex123 says he was able to so it's probably YMMV just like it is here. But obviously they're going to want to sell to to existing customers first since it's way more beneficial to them.

download a good player (I use BS Player personally) and you can read pretty much any file format.
So far I've done MKV, MP4, MOV, AVI, pretty much anything i threw at it and it's been good

Galaxy Nexus by the way

MXPlayer can play pretty much anything you throw at it, and it's free as well. Subtitles and everything. I think Samsung's stock video player plays everything as well, less extra functions

^one of the reasons i would buy this phone is for the pop-up play feature but since it only works on the default video player then it's kinda useless.

hopefully ppl hack it to make it work with youtube/netflix/etc.?

+1 for MXPlayer. I haven't tried it on MKV yet but it is supported.

^ Does MX Player do fullscreen on Galaxy Nexus? (ie: takes away the nav bar automatically)

Wowwwww the Koreans leave the best for themselves.
SHV-E210S: LTE, 2GB RAM, Quad Core Exynos
A quad-core LTE-enabled Galaxy S III with 2GB RAM to hit Korea - GSMArena.com news

One thing I don't get though.. How come their variants of the Note/S3 have the same specs as the international version yet still be able to handle LTE? Is their LTE different than ours?

Nevermind. It is a Exynos 4412. The international version is 4212.
