Galaxy S3 may be getting Jelly Bean very soon?

The S3's bootloader has also been unlocked.

You know if I could go back about 3 months, I'd sell my phone and get a Galaxy Nexus. This mothersucker has taken so many face dives lately. The first one was like unleashing the floodgates of falls.

Falls suck! Two days ago, my Nexus 7 took a face dive and shattered. My brother told me to get a SquareTrade warranty for $50 with accidental damage. Yup, that's going to work out very well...

I have a SquareTrade on my nook color. And it took a fall scuffing up the edges something serious.

I just can't bring myself to call it in. :/

I keep my phone in my shirt breast pocket, and over the two years I've owned it has hit the floor, usually hard enough to pop the case open, about a hundred times. I'm surprised it hasn't died.

My next one I'm definitely getting a case for, even if it makes it a bit thicker/bigger.

Gah. I can't WAIT for the S3 to drop in price - I really want one, but $160 isn't happening.

I passed on the Xoom, so now I'm considering a Transformer Infinity with dock for $592 or a Prime with dock for $474. What do you guys think?

Sorry, J. But I'm getting one or the other as a 12 months no interest deal. Basically a tablet for me and a new Wacom for my wife for about $78 a month for the next year.

Go with the Infinity. The wireless reception on the Prime is crappy. I'm able to deal with it, but it's not good.

I went with the Infinity. It came in a couple of hours ago. It's charging right now. I'm super excited to give it a whirl.

Can I connect multiple bluetooth devices at once or just one at a time?

Yes. I used to use my headset and mouse at the same time all the time.

I just upgraded to a Galaxy S3 from a droid x. I'm not really wild about touchwiz after using launcher pro for so long. I've narrowed my choices down to Nova Launcher and Apex.
Any CoG'er user opinions of the either launcher would be appreciated.

I prefer ADW. It's simple, but it always work.

I love my S3 except for the damn GPS, which I use every day to run. The Droid X was spot on every time. This phone takes forever to hold the signal and then loses it at the drop of a hat. My run this morning took about a quarter mile to hold the signal, yet I somehow ended up with nearly a half miles over the GF's iPhone.

I would say avoid Samsung. My sister's S3 had the power button fall off with-in two weeks of unboxing, and my cousin just told me his just start crashing. Just crashing. I am thinking it's touchwiz related.

I have a Note and my wife has a S3 and weve had zero issues... other than the GPS, which really is slow to get synced.

The physical build quality is leagues better than Motorola's I've seen.
