        Looks like the Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) now use the standard micro-USB for power charging. That is wonderful.

                      The Omate on kickstarter has so much more to offer. It is stand alone so it doesn't require a phone, has expandable storage, is ip67 waterproof, has a 5 megapixel camera, gps... It can make phone calls without using a phone. And it has access to the Play store, so you can install apps like endomondo right on the phone itself.

                          The note 3 looks very nice, I like the back cover very much. And it is good that it come with 32/64 gb option, with Samsung, I don't think we can get enough userspace for 16gb version.

                            There is mistake on 4th page. Note 3 has 3GB of RAM (not 2)

                                  The new & improved S-pen features look great. I like the pop up circle a lot more too.

No hard feelings

                                      Why they have to ruin a good tablet like this. It is so unconfortable to handle those things is the middle.
