The note is just way too big. How is it supposed to fit in your pocket?

I've seen them. My 4" Droid 4 is big enough as it is, although that does have the extra keyboard. I like to use my phone with one hand though.

Figured Bone would chime in on this one. As for provider it's really between AT&T and Verizon in HI. I wasn't very happy with Verizon when I had them before, but that years ago. Price is the same once you have three lines so that isn't much of a factor and both offer the same discount for military.

What are you using to tether?
I had to forfeit unlimited. Sucks having 5 lines and only one of them mine. Had to do an upgrade and go to measured service. When you're on measured tethering is allowed so I just use the stock app on the phone.

I'm not happy with Verizon service here. Everything else with them is good, but the two places I want to use my phone the most, work and home, reception sucks. I got an AT&T pre-pay to try and that works great in both areas. Even work switched from verizon to AT&T internally. I want to switch, but with 5 lines that will take a while for the contracts to expire. I get a 22% discount through work with Verizon, and it would be similar with ATT

Had an AT&T pre-pay when I was out there in Feb and reception was good. Had T-Mobile last time I lived there and wasn't completely satisfied with them. Probably going to get an account/phones while I'm on the mainland for 30 when heading over.

Well I would expect a laptop to have a faster processor, but really can you tell a difference making phone calls? Angry birds is pretty demanding though.
