corksta: Sorry I'm not perfect guys.

Rudder: Well that was mean. I drive all the way to the store then they say they made a mistake and that they actually may not have even placed my preorder despite me paying already. You would think after 4 visits and several calls warehouse stationary would of got it right and perhaps I can save some fuel.

I hope you had a few stern words for them about sorting their stuff out!

I'd have been gutted, no matter how hard I tried I wouldn't have been able to restrain wild hopeful elation at the news I was getting it a week early!

corksta: Now I suppose I'll be in trouble for using 'guys' when that specifically refers to the male sex and I haven't confirmed that I am speaking to an all-male audience. :)

networkn: I know this is offtopic as well, but the trampoline I bought for my Son for Xmas arrived today, after 5 months of waiting! We are assembling it tonight after he sleeps in the cover of darkness, so that I can film his expression when he sees it (He is MAD for Trampolines which comes from his mother who was a commonwealth gymnast.)

Meh, just do what i do and randomly stick S3 somewhere in the post. Then it's on-topic.

Glengus: Contrary to my post a couple of days ago, my pre-order through telecom has not gone smoothly at all, as far as I can tell it is all back on track now.

I have some questions that someone may be able to help with though:

The Telecom website does not have many specifics on the phone, other than S3, colour, 16gb. Am I right to assume that it will be the international version talked about in all the reviews?

Telecom has recently been marketing its commitment to 4G/LTE technology, is it at all possible that the phone I pick up next week will be a dual core LTE version hinted at for the US market?  I would prefer to have a go with the quad core personally, 3G is fine.

This is the first phone I have sourced in NZ for quite a while, I can only assume that nowadays all are unlocked quad band - will work with any providers sim (microsim)! is this correct?
