Samsung Galaxy Note - Is it too big??



"The Samsung GALAXY Note is the first phone to go over the 5-inch screen mark with its 5.3-inch Super AMOLED screen with a resolution of the whopping 800 x 1280 pixels (WXGA), resulting in pixel density of 285ppi. It also stands out with its built in stylus and apps supporting pen input. Under the hood, a Samsung 1.4GHz dual-core chip powers Android 2.3 Gingerbread skinned with TouchWiz. The Galaxy Note also sports an 8-megapixel rear camera capable of 1080p video recording, while up front there is a 2-megapixel shooter".

Those are the specs for the upcoming Galaxy note. Here we are where most people think my phone (The Galaxy S2) is huge and along comes the 'Note" what are they going to say to that?? Damn that things huge??. I must say that the spec's are nice and i am sure they might even get better by the time this "little" thing gets to us State side as we saw with the Galaxy S2. You can bet there will be 4 touch sensitive buttons along the bottom instead of the one large home button. Samsung has already said that they would be releasing ICS for the note so not to worry.

As they say what is old will become new again and here we see it in the stylus. Here i thought that gone were the day of the old Palm hand helds with the stylus and that we had moved on to complete touch screens. But i guess really there is only so much you can do with the tips of your fingers. The functionality of the stylus looks great and they even have a couple games pre-installed on the note that takes advantage of the stylus. So will you want a "Note " in your pocket this year?? Does this replace your need to carry both a tablet and a phone??
please feel free to leave your comments and thought at the bottom
Thx
