I know our version isn't released yet, but can anyone with some prior experience venture a guess if the Korean dock/battery will be compatible with our devices?

I have a relative coming here in a week and I can ask him for both, and use them once I get the note 2 here.

TIA.

^ we are not sure if the Note 2 released around the world would even look the same as the one we are getting.

Last year the Note 1 got the home button for international release but the NA LTE release got no physical button at all and the back plate was clipped on differently than the International version. The announcement and launch party of the NA Note 2 is on Oct 24th.

But to answer your question base on the Note 1 last year. The dock and battery should work. The whole dimension and spec should be the same with maybe some minor regional tweaking

^ unless the software side supports higher resolution or you need to remote your desktop, I do not see the point going beyond 1280 at this moment.

I was hoping ARM A15 with USB 3.0 as well, but it doesn't seem JB and most android apps need such powerful hardware to run.

3G version and LTE version price difference is $100, I find it hard to accept. Can't predict this phone can last me 2-4 years before I need to buy another one.

$800 for a laptop is alright, but for a phone it's quite steep

Anyone know why only the grey one is up for pre-order? The white one should be launching on the same day too right?
Last thing I need is a delayed release on the marble white =.=

What are some guesses on the Mobilicity pricing for the Note II? You guys think it will be $600 like S3 or $650? I'd rather get it from them than on CL a few weeks later if it's around that price with the $50 off for pre-orders.

Can't you cancel preorders? I know futureshop gave you 30 days to refund for preorders.. maybe it's the same for mobilicity

I thought mobilicity usually have it a bit higher than robelus.
Looking at Note 1 prices when it first came out it was 699 to 799 from robelus.
so... Note 2 should be around the price range. Hopefully it'll be at or lower than 650
