So Glad to Finally be Here!

---

Ordered the pebble blue 16GB model yesterday at about 2:00pm CST with overnight delivery. Confirmed, with tracking and hope to finally have an S3 in hand within the next 12 hours or so.

Figured I'd stop in to say hi.

Looking forward to the good times I'm sure this forum will bring.

I bought mine yesterday. 16gb metallic blue. I got there early to make sure I could get one lol the store ended up being super packed by 1030am. Easily 30-40 people before I left. This is an amazing phone , and you guys will not be disappointed when yours get delivered ! Have fun, and hopefully we'll have root soon.

Man I thought the stores here would be packed but there were nobody in line in Sacramento and the store I went to had about 100 phones.

I also left Sprint to go to T-Mobile and picked up the GSIII. I completely agree, their data speeds are beyond pathetic. Trying to use "3G" is on par with my dial up modem from the 90's and 4G is spotty at best

I had been with T-Mobile for 8 years and left 2 years ago to go to Sprint. At the time, T-Mobiles 3G was still in its relative infancy and Sprint had just started rolling out Wimax 4G. Oh, how the tables quickly turn; Sprint has given up on Wimax and are now selling LTE phones with no freakin' LTE network live yet. T-Mobile on the other hand has vastly improved upon their network speeds.

Haters scoff at T-Mobile calling HSPA+ "4G" but I think the results speak for themselves. The final nail in the coffin, along with the above article, was seeing my wife's 2 year old MyTouch consistently get quadruple the speeds of my Sprint device.

It's good to be back...
