    You can stick a 64GB card in the Galaxy S3. It's the first phone that officially supports them. I have the 32GB version myself (was only another $50), have had it for a day and I love it. One thing you should do is get a Otterbox Defender case for it, makes it a little thicker but protects the phone from just about anything.

      Google Music syncs your iTunes library.

        Well, synced the itunes with google play, got a Hyperion battery (4200 mAH) and the back to it, Hyperion case to fit the battery and back, and a Tech Armor screen protector. It will go about 3 days now on a charge. REALLY liking this phone so far and it does just about everything well.

        I'm really liking the AllShare program as I have a samsung TV and its cool to watch my pics on the TV when I want to show someone a video or pic. All in all, I don't need task managers or anything because the phone is built in with one, Tango has been great for video chat with the wife, and I can't find a fault with it except the factory keyboard doesn't have a comma on it which drove me crazy. I used another keyboard to replace it so it doesn't matter. Anyway, still getting used to a Samsung platform again as my last couple have been HTC. Only thing I miss is the HTC keyboard which I can't find.

              I'll say even on 3G, the SIII is an amazing phone. If you have AllShare on a TV at home, or other devices, the SIII rocks too. I gave up on I(everything) because I got tired of their proprietary garbage on every device they make. Special chargers, special cases, special docks, special this special that. I like the universality of the Nexus and SIII, or really just Android in general. The SIII has gotta be at least twice as fast as my old HTC EVO and that was the best there was through sprint for quite awhile.

                It will be soon.

                Sprint's efforts to bring LTE to the masses have led to a large amount of frustration from the consumer base, but an announcement made by the carrier this morning shows that it's hard at work to rectify that. The Now Network is nearly ready to blanket up to 100 markets with the high-speed data tech in the near future, and the full list of cities (shown after the break) can expect to enjoy LTE in the "coming months." That leaves a whole lot of wiggle room for Sprint, admittedly, but at least the company is not backing away from its Network Vision goals. Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles, New York City, Miami, New Orleans, Orlando, Philadelphia and Washington DC are among the major markets listed, but take a look below to see if your municipality has made the cut this time around. Sprint 4G LTE service is expected to be available in the coming months in Chicago, Boston, New York and Los Angeles. And that's not all. We expect to bring Sprint's all-new network to more than 100 new cities during this period.

                    It probably will later this year or early next year.

                      Those of you complaining about the battery life will be happy to know that people who have flashed the Jelly Bean leaks are reporting that their battery life has doubled. This update is expected to be released before the iPhone 5 hits the shelves.

                        I had the SII and traded up to the SIII. Do NOT get the extra power batteries, they do not communicate with the phone well. Just have chargers everywhere.

                          Well I've had one of the Jelly Bean leaks on my S3 for a couple days now and I have to say the battery lasts much longer now. I use my phone heavily and I can go all day on a single charge and still have nearly half the battery left.
