I don't see one. I know HTC's come with Polaris Office.

I use KingSoft Office. Full. Free. Works well.

Also interested, I'm hoping Capdase do something similar to the bumper they made for the Note.

When you can get an equally good S2 for half that price... Makes you wonder though, is the S3 that much better than an S2.....

Done. Thanks.

Found this root guide a little more informative.

I rooted mine within a couple hours of getting my hands on it

On another note:

Has anyone played around with the NFC on the S3?

I bought myself a pack of NFC tags from this place recently - got an NFC keyfob that I've programmed to toggle my screen brightness, ringer volume and Bluetooth for when I'm driving.

You can do that with NFC stickers? Okay... Now I realise how cool they are.

Light flow led is an awesome app for the S3. Controls the rgb led notification light. Any colour you can think off. Well almost.

Yep - with the aid of this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jwsoft.nfcactionlauncher

My S-Voice keeps hanging. Has anyone else experienced similar issues?

Working great on my Galaxy Note

They just need to rip your eye tracking app and I will be a happy camper.

I used titanium backup to freeze it - voice control is silly.

My view exactly, S III has nice stuff but I can live without them. There are apps or there will be apps available to do most of the new stuff

ahahaha.

The delivery is quick - and the package was sent via FedEx - I don't trust SAPO - I've had too many packages in the past that have never arrived.
