Sprint still… no qualms with their service in my area… the bill is nice too. Hopefully when 4g rolls out it’ll be even better. After the first charge, Its looking like a far better day on the battery this time around. ---

ugg att is gay. After a good 20mins on the phone I got a supervisor to OK a upgrade 2 months early. Have credit card in hand ready to order S3. He takes card info and at the last min says he cant order it since its still a pre-order, upgrade exceptions/approvals cant do pre-orders. WTF, I have to wait till its officially released and call back and have to deal with it all over again. ---

Picked up my AT&T S3 a few hours ago for $150. Haven’t had any time to fuck with it with the kiddos still up. I noticed an annoying random reboot every now and again. Google seems to indicate bad hardware. Sweet, I got the last one in the store… ---
