Default Selected Carphone Warehouse UK have stock

Bad news is:

Only Newcastle City Centre, Leeds City Centre, London Oxford Street and one other I can't remember?

There are another 90 in central warehouse in Wednesbury

More bad news: they will not sell for cash, only on Vodafone monthly contract.

Had a try with one at the Leeds store and all the staff could say is "My God it's so BIG!
Samsung Galaxy S III on 3UK
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 on wifi

I don't know where did u get that information from but it's not completely valid.

I've visited 2 Carphone Warehouse stores in City Centre, one of them didn't know what samsung galaxy note is, another one said that it's going to get stock next week.

Which city centre? I only had info for Leeds and Newcastle main stores. Not everyone in the Leeds store was aware of the product.

Hope you're on Vodafone Ben. That's the only network they were offering.

Which Newcastle are you talking about?

I've been to Newcastle Upon Tyne stores so it might be different from the ones you had in mind.

I'm not, I'm on T-Mobile, but my contract ends on the 20th and I'm not against changing network. Do you know if they had any white ones in?

Is that luck or curse from vodafone?



Do you have any idea if and when it's going to appear on 3 network? So far I've seen galaxy note available on all UK networks except 3.
