^
Robelus and AT&T are selling the same variant (SGH-i747)
Mobilicity, Wind and T-Mobile are selling the (SGH-T999)
International Version is GT-I9300

The difference between Robelus and AT&T is that Robelus customer gets the 50GB Dropbox storage from Samsung. AT&T opt out of that offer

Yeah thats what I was thinking too. The rogers version seems quite scarce so I might just pick up a Belus one and unlock it.

I know the phone is still really new but was checking out the XDA support on the AT&T variant so far theres close to nothing

if you are buying it out right.. just go to virgin and buy one. put it on the supertab talk and txt only and pay like 399 or something for it and then cancel it tmw and pay off the remainder 200 so it works out to 599.99 only + tax. first month is free and no activation fees on talk and txt plan only today is the last day though. even if u put it on a $20 plan and they don't give u first month free worse is you pay 619 vs 649 every other carrier

I'm using the Cygnett snap-on plastic case, matte black. It's decent

Also, no LTE on vancouver island

FYI for anyone like me who isn't used to the predictive texting (I've always had an iphone), I downloaded an app called SwiftKey 3. Makes the auto correct way better, pretty much never have any mistakes anymore and I type fast
