    Breaks my heart they didn't. Nokia would be on top of the mobile phone world like Samsung is now.

    Wish the 920 had a microSD slot. I just assumed that would be required for all WP8. Oh well, 32GB and 7GB SkyDrive will be more than enough for me. I just wonder if uploading things to SkyDrive will eat up my data plan.

    so no carrier info, no avail date, no pricing info...what's the fking point of holding these press conferences? just to tease people with random specs?

    meanwhile apple tells u about their product, when, how and how much..and the when is within a week or two!

    For the Lumias: It will be on AT&T. Not sure about Verizon. It won't be on T-Mobile.

    This is what someone told me by looking at the phone's frequencies. Can't say if it's 100% true.

    not true. the specs "he" got are from the nokia global site. so it's the international version. it's missing LTE frequency for any US carrier.

    look at the Nokia USA site..they left the data section blank.

    well i was all ready to wait for the windows phones but there's one tiny problem for me. I can't live without separate volume controls for media playback vs. ringer.

    now i gotta decide between staying with ATT for the new iphone or switch to verizon.

    Some of the more pedestrian "features" of the new Note 2.

    LG just launched a beast of a phone. Missing a microSD card slot though.

    Biggest thing that sucks is probably the price for this international version. It's priced at $895 which is a complete rip off IMO.

    The iPhone is most definitely still on the top. Their sales are so much greater than any other phone on the market.

    Correction: Samsung is RECENTLY on top...but the iPhone 5 is selling at a record pace for smartphones. We'll see what happens in a matter of about a month or so.

    So, a question about the Galaxy S3. I've had it for about 2 months and love it. I do notice that it seems to lag for up to 5 seconds when in the text messaging program. I switched from the Samsung keyboard to Swiftkey. Has anyone else noticed this lag? Anyone know of anything that can be done to speed it up? Thanks.

    I recommend Handcent or Go Sms.... much better.
