Best Buy now accepting preorders on Verizon, Sprint and AT&T versions of the Samsung Galaxy S III

If you're a customer of Verizon, AT&T or Sprint and you have decided to forgo sleep (or grow a 'preorder' beard) until your money is accepted in exchange for a reserved unit of the Samsung Galaxy S III, the good news is that you don't have to wait any longer. Best Buy announced that it has started accepting preorders for the device. To be even more precise, this, ahem, Pre-Sale as the retailer calls it, is taking place not only at the big box locations, but also at the 334 Best Buy Mobile locations.

Samsung Galaxy S III

Verizon and Sprint customers can choose from 16GB or 32GB of native storage while AT&T customers are limited to the 16GB model. On the other hand, AT&T customers can order the device in an exclusive red color in addition to the Marble White and Pebble Blue that all carriers are getting. And AT&T noted in its release on Monday that a 16GB microSD card is available for $39.

All four major U.S. carriers will begin taking pre-orders for the Samsung Galaxy S III on June 6th with U.S. Cellular starting on June 12th. T-Mobile and Sprint have announced that they will each launch the phone on June 21st with U.S. Cellular looking to release the unit in July. AT&T and Verizon have not offered a precise launch date.

thats a really good question!! depends on what you're going to use the phone for!! if its personal use, id say the S3 because you're only losing the S-Pen and screen size!!

BUT, the Note is unlike anything you've seen out of a smartphone! im a big guy (6'7" 240lbs) so the S3 is too small for me

Why did Customs allow this iPhone copy into the US? Apple needs to get an injunction ASAP.
