Crossing my fingers for a release that's Riiiiiight when I get back from a 2.5 week stay in Europe!
Or, ya know, sooner! Sounds like the quad-core is the best for your situation too. BUT... I heard that the international version doesn't work with Verizon or AT&T. Maybe they just meant "Compatible with 4G" for those networks, I'm not sure... But look into it a bit more to make sure, I don't see how it wouldn't work with standard 3G cell towers
the international phone from amazon will not work with any Verizon service and will work on ATT 3G.
I think that Sprint will soon follow suit and get rid of unlimited data. Especially since the rise of Android devices that are so easily rooted to allow wi-fi teathering to other devices.
If the GS3 comes out anything short of a quad core, game changing beast, then I'm not going to upgrade. I just bought the GS2 (epic touch 4G as Sprint calls it) and it's running circles around my old Evo 4G.
I'm sick of these half step increments to keep us buying! Now Sprint is making the move from Wi-Max to LTE so my ET4G is already out dated. I'm hoping that there is a firmware upgrade for the radios to make the Wi-Max phones LTE compatible.

Thanks for the clarification!
So Verizon completely did away with unlimited data then?! That's ridiculous...
News hit that Canada may have the Galaxy S3 available for sale on June 20th. Does that mean Verizon may get it then as well?

It may mean a week or so before. We are guaranteed for a June release at least that's what Samsung said at their press stuff. Theirs also the rumor of Verizon getting it before others in an exclusive deal.
I just want a new phone darn it.
Hmm... What kind of exclusive deal?! Give us a link!
Any perks for the buyers of the phone, or strictly a business deal?
Just did a quick search of Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 exclusive and couldn't find it again. I think it was a couple days before the reveal. It was a rumor too.
I would certainly love this. I am looking to upgrade now and am looking at the Razr Maxx but if this is coming, I may wait.
I was looking for an upgrade too, but when i heard sgs3 would be coming to verizon i am holding off for this one.
i would not jump on the razr maxx either, as i was going to pull the trigger and found a rumor that the razr maxx HD version (720p) will be released before or around the same time as the sgs3. also notice how the razr maxx dropped to $200 is a big red flag that a new phone is coming soon.
the rumor on the exclusive deal for verizon has made its rounds, as it was stated verizon may have a deal with samsung to release the phone before any other provider (ATT, T-Mobile, or Sprint). As this phone is the sponsored phone for Olympics i would doubt the "exclusive" release would last merely a week or two.
though samsung did guarantee the phone will be available in 120+ countries by july does mean june is the date on or around the 20th
remember all rumors are not confirmed

well another rumor out of t-mobile http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19736_...for-t-mobiles-samsung-galaxy-iii-galaxy-note/ shows that the pebble blue 16gb and 32gb will be available on june 20th and white 16gb on july 11th, along with the galaxy note
the rumor of the 20th looks very promising
The 32 GB version will be plenty for me, since I'll be putting all my media on one of these beasts!
SanDisk - Mobile Ultra 64GB microSDXC Class 6 Memory Card
the fact that this phone includes sd slot and dropbox space, why would you need 64gb phone for?
also by the time 64gb comes out the family shared plan could be effective and end spending a lot of money
"I can't envision myself needing this feature, so you shouldn't need it, and you're crazy to want it."
There is truth to what you said.
But in terms of money (for the average user) it just makes more sense to get an SD card.
There are probably only a couple reasons to get the 64GB version
1) if you want EVERYTHING on the PHONE, not relying on an SD card
2) if you want 128GB worth of storage (178 including dropbox) which is insanity unless you have hundreds of movies you want to put on the phone, or 30,000 songs to put on it.

1just placed my order for the 32GB White model. $301.50 or something like that after the $30 upgrade fee. Ship date was July 9th
FYI...
Having talked with Verizon this morning, the 32GB phone that they are currently offering for pre-order has 16GB of internal memory and a 16GB memory card in it.
Their offering of a 32GB phone is a bit misleading.1SCH-1535 at the Bluetooth Special Interest Group
Looks like it may not be too long until we see the Verizon version after all.1No from what I understand you can upgrade and keep unlimited as long as you do it before contract renewal if that's passed you're going to have to buy the phone at full retail I'm going to talk to my aunt today ( level 2 ) and ill post her response here
