Voted here too, not sure, still in two minds about the blue vs white. Although price will decide when I get mine. Unfortunately this year is the year I am meant to sell my house, so all my money is going into refurbishing it. I have moved across the ditch. Now residing in Melbourne as a VOIP/Video Technical Trainer/Engineer.

Unfortunately this year is the year I am meant to sell my house, so all my money is going into refurbishing it. I know the feeling. . . . .I floated the idea of giving my beloved my SGSII in favour of me upgrading and it was met with a chilly reception, and reminders of impending renovations, wedding, sale and build of new house! Stupid life getting in the way of fun stuff. . . . . Life is mostly froth and bubble, two things stand like stone - kindness in another's trouble, courage in your own.

Works with SGS I/II/III. I also have a SIM cutter available (Dunedin) - happy to post either to you at your cost.

I'm looking forward to pricing being released by the telco's, in particular 2degrees pay monthly. It will be good to see 2degrees right up there in releasing such a popular phone so close to worldwide release. If all else fails and it's a rip off I will order from clove, but holding off for local offers first.
