Man I'm getting jealous at both of you now Shaz and NZtechfreak. I stayed up all night last night for the announcement that posted here but it was a disappointment. :( Nothing said in the post that I have not heard or read before.

If I had managed to get my grubby mitts on my S3 this morning I sure wouldn't be doing any work! So very tempting, but have just sorted the micro-sim out. Will be all ready to go at lunch. Although I just had an un-boxing event at my work (lots of Galaxy owners here of SI, SII and the Note). Was a pretty special moment :)

Bet someone could open up the S3 and do a BGA work on the RAM :D talk has been that LTE 2gb ram is able to be done because of dual core instead of quad core I wonder if Exynos 4Quad maximum RAM is 1GB and S4 is 2GB. But if LTE version can put 2GB RAM then why not Exynos Cannot see how can this not be done by someone on the internet, upgrade the RAM :)

There's no point having 2Gb if you barely use 1! Life is mostly froth and bubble, two things stand like stone - kindness in another's trouble, courage in your own. SGSIII ROM: WanamLite v1.3 Kernel: Ninphetamine v1.1.0 Modem: DXLEA SGSII (Now belongs to SWMBO) ROM: WanamLite v12 Kernel: Siyah v3.3.2 Modem: BVLPB SGS (Cat's chew toy) If you need a download-mode jig ASAP, you're welcome to borrow mine! Works with SGS I/II/III. I also have a SIM cutter available (Dunedin) - happy to post either to you at your cost.

Oh dear am I turning into "one of them"? when will my blue turn up?
