Lol I had a laugh reading through the comments, ta.

Though I must say my experience with glasses is that they get broke very easily, I think I'll wait for an internal spinal insert transmitting to my optical nerve connect point, much less likely to get broken, plus my spine won't steam up every time I enter a pub.

Noob question here, I should know the answer but don't:

If I buy an LTE S3 (which is likely my only choice as I'll be buying it in Korea)
what happens when I go travelling to 3G countries, China/India/UK mostly. Will it not work at all, or will it just step down to 3G only, which I'm totally fine with as long as it works!

And the way I have it in my head is the possible dual core chip is better than the possible quad core chip, it's lower nm build and will run cooler+longer? although Samsung might make versions with each chip in also to complicate things further (as always) So reading it as 'dual core only' might be no bad thing, but the non techy people will never get their heads around it (hence samsung building both possibly?)
 
The Galaxy LTE line usually has wide band support and Korea uses the same 2G/3G operating frequencies as us(?) Not sure about China and India.

Yes, a dual core Krait/A15 based SoC is more suitable than a quad core A9 even at low clock speeds. The architecture is a generational improvement so stuff like memory bandwidth is insanely faster. (Think dual core Sandybridge vs quad core Llano)

Must be close enough as my Korean SGS has worked in India+China+Malaysia happily enough. So although it's LTE first and foremost, it still has the 3g tech inside to fall back on then?
I know they've been rolling out lots of LTE here in Korea, but can't have 100% coverage yet so makes sense I guess.

I very much doubt that the gs 3 will have google glasses as well, as it is a google/android thing by Google and so Google will want to show it off on their next nexus device along with jellybean, not a device which isn't branded with google's name and isn't running their stock android software.

Unless Samsung have paid Google a lot of money (and I mean a lot! :p) to use it, then just maybe.........! :p

Oh yes, I forgot it was Google's product for whatever reason....
 
How long after Thursday before it goes on sale and where would be the best place to buy one (not wanting one on a contract).

Thankies!
