Default Just got my Note

After using my unlocked Dell Streak 5 on T-Mobile for over a year (seemed like an eternity at 2G speeds), I just got the Note.... What a SWEET device!!

No stores in my area carry the note, so I orders from walmart. Been on the art version for 4 months and can't wait to get back to hspa+ speeds.

Hey auds.... I wish you Godspeed in getting your Note.... Mine took about a week to arrive (ordered through Customer Retention dept. at T-Mobile)..... The week seemed like forever, but keep your chin up..... It's WELL worth the wait

Well, damned Walmart cancelled my order. Chatted with CSR for 20 min, she didn't know what happened, so I ordered again and got on chat right away so it wouldn't get cancelled, but it did. Don't know if it was out of stock or what. Just a pisser. I have to call T-Mo as none of the stores in the Portland area have it yet. I hate waiting.

Auds.... I've read on several reputable websites that WireFly is selling it for $179 (with contract.... New or existing customer)... You might want to check that out.... Let me know how it turns out Good luck!

New customer, yes, great price. Make sure you go to wireflyfriends.com, not the regular wirefly website. Had to hunt around for that info, when I couldn't find it at the 179 price on the regular Wirefly website.

For existing TMobile customers, you must be upgrade eligible when you order. I placed my order, and it came back denied because I'm not yet eligible for handset upgrade. The non-upgrade price is much more.

I went through T-Mo retention and was able to wrangle a $150 price (plus a SGS3 for $180 and a free SGS2)! I'm supposed to be receiving all my goodies today. I had to check yesterday since the automated system kept telling me I had nothing in transit.

For all those customers that wonder, 12 years as a customer does pay off sometimes!

I wasn't going to divuldge the price, but I too, got mine for $149 through T-Mobile Customer Retention for $149... I think I did pay extra (in addition to the $149), for express shipping (well worth it.... Note was delivered to my front door 3-days later)

Also... If you haven't ordered the "USB OTG" adapter, it's the coolest accessory ever.... I paid $15 through Amazon w/ free shipping.... It lets you plug USB devices (like key-chain thumb drives), directly into your Note.... Way cool!! (but I haven't tried it with other USB devices like keyboards yet)
