Close friend of mine had her first and it was 8 pounds. 3 stitches later.

Also i probably shouldn't say as it's still early but im gonna be an uncle for the first time.


Has anyone found any car phone holder things (it's late and i cant think of the right terminology but still managed to use that big word) for the S3 (duh) locally? I couldn't see any on Adriatica.

Ouch, for that $200 difference you could get a Sandisk 64GB micro sdxc, and still have $20 to spare for a pouch

Edit: Where has the blue gone on the HN site? :(


@Acheva, nah nothing locally, might get one from Clove

Funny posting atm...baby talk for a bit then back on topic like any normal tech would.. love it.

Completely natural, came out with woosh, 1hr 30 min labour..in the water...amazing stuff.

I purchased the HTC One X car holder which looked awesome, but had to wait and at the time of the S3 release, still hadn't come out at Clove UK so I cancelled it. But I use a car holder all of the time..need one.


BTW THANKS FOR ALL THE WELL WISHES FOR MY BABY GIRL...her name is Marni Jean motorwayne

doh! Part of the reason I jumped at the WS $799 HOX was I expected the SGSIII to be $1049. Ah well you live and learn, and I've already slipped back into the 'normal usage' mode rather than 'new toy' mode. I guess the SIII may feature down track, once the hype (and price) fall away.
Is there any chance the SIII will suffer iPhone-itis with demand outstripping supply?

They still have blue up with the WS preorder (but that could be an oversight I guess, based on the service some people have had so far)

I've just got back from Aussie and was speaking to a dealer over there about this very issue. They are expecting significant supply chain issues with insufficiant stock to meet demand. There are already issues with the One X being in short supply also.

I was wondering about this also, the factory can apparently crank out 5 million a month, and as at last week they had 9 million pre orders, so unless they started building them two months ago...........

I have heard this too. There are going to be supply issues (like there were with the Galaxy Tab) and Samsung aren't bring accessories in at the same time - stupid.

Good that HN have matched WS price. I'll take the bet that JB will beat them on launch day. Hopefully they all get stock.

Even I am surprised that VF haven't said anything by now. It's just weird to leave it quite so late. No plans announcements.
