ok just been to JB hifi in St lukes they have blue ones but no white, go figure. So went to NL's and told them that and asked when blue would be in. They said that JB's get theirs through VF distributor not brightpoint.

I mentioned about 32gb's maybe not available at all and he siad his GF is waiting on one and samsung rep was in yesterday saying stock of blues arriving next week and most likely 32gb.

Once again too much dis-information and people getting thier anger up over not very much. It isn't NL's fault as if they had them we would as well so people get your facts straight before threatening to burn things down even if in jest.

Whatever the truth is mosrt other countries the same as I've heard in other forums peeps waiting on blues in Europe and England so don't take it personally it isn't all about you.

Let's hope you are right Mr.Jeffnz.
But the problem with the information right now is conflecting with the store information. But I really hope you are right.

what a stupid thing by NL. brightpoint is the only distributor for VF sourced handsets. There is no other supplier. I can say this confidently as I deal with these guys on very frequent basis. JB get their handset from bright point and so do vodafone and so does NL.

I think NL saying this just to get complains off their back. And we are not even know for sure that Samsung rep is right or not. Silly to believe until I see my phone.

infact I have shown this response to someone from bright point and he can't stop laughing. Anyone who orders VF sourced handsets orders through bright point. Yes retailers do get preference and this is due to the number of handsets they order but you don't expect NL to come up with a stupid excuse.

I'm like hanging like a hang man bro. It is hard enough when seeing people are getting their S3 though in 16G. I'm committed to 32GB.

Do you know how long do I have to keep hanging like I am now? O.o kinda need to breathe.
Any longer than this will make me explode like a hulk smashing punny god.
So will brightpoint will shipping them soon or never? :(

Any more happy owner?
Seems like psychrn is right about the 32GB. Expansys has 66 S3 white 32GB in stock.

Though the blue version is still saying "pre order now"
