Go no where without mine, but i think it and the SGSII will both go in favour of the note 2 possibly

I'm currently using a Xperia ray, SGSII, Tab 7.7, iPad2 and a Nokia N8, I think that's enough. Admittedly, the iPad does not get to leave home. The day pack is, X series vaio, Xperia ray, SGSII, Tab 7.7, with the ray swapping to N8 at 4pm Friday along with SGSII SIM going to the Tab 7.7.

Lucky we are in a generation of mobile devices, making like simpler ;-)

lyonrouge: Mine is 3G


Yep, I'm aware it is available in 3G, I just didn't get a 3G one is all. Would definitely get a 3G one in the future on the basis of my experience with the Huawei MediaPad.

Vodafone don't have bundle sharing yet, but I'm hoping they do soon so I can utilise mine.

They're rolling ICS out now to European variants so depending on where yours was sourced am official release won't be too far away.

CSC code will tell you which 'region' it was originally sold to. (or at least the region it's now set at)

Any significant improvements over 3.2? I assume you don't get the Samsung bloatware with that ROM

I got most all of the bloat-ware, but used Titanium Backup to re order things appropriately. I do like it alot.
