It is thin and light weight but with an oversize screen that is great for surfing the web. I see people on planes watching movies on it. Apps are fun and comparable to the Iphone.
jojo, I went to Best Buy today to check out the Samsung Galaxy Sii. Clerks at Best Buy recommended I wait until Galaxy S3 comes out -- Best Buy clerks said S3 is being released in April; web sites I checked today said anywhere from April to June/July. Since my AT&T contract is up on May 8, I will hold off until then unless the S3 comes out in April then I will may bite the bullet and take the early termination fee. But I did like the Sii. If the S3 wasn't coming out supposedly so soon, I would probably be getting the Sii in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for the tip.
