The Gizmodo and Pop-sci reviews were only so-so as well, but their complaints are about things that you don't have to use if you don't want to...and I don't want to.
The thing I'm really looking forward to is NFC. Set up a tag at work that changes your sounds, volume, background, etc. Set up another tag in your car that puts it into car mode. Put another one on your nightstand that turns the brightness all the way down and silences the phone and then launches the clock app. There are some really cool things that can be done with the NFC capability and some cheap NFC tags.

I'm on my 3rd droid in about 7 months now. Same phone... it just keeps crapping out. The battery life on them suck ass. I don't play games or apps so I don't have anything running in the background. I know many people love their droid phones, but I dislike mine very much.

June 13th. Originally plced with BB on the 6th but got spooked by the arguments about keeping unlimited so I went with VZW on the 13th. That was the last day to get a ship date of 7/9

I just picked one up on Wednesday and love it, rooted yesterday to get rid of all the bloatware crap and prepare for JellyBean. Came from the HTC Sensation that died on me last week. Sensation was a good phone but the S3 was the only real upgrade available and I needed a phone.

Sprint and probably ATT stores should.

Just one more week...I already have cases, car mounts, and NFC tags ready to go for the wife and I.
I got a clear hard shell case for my blue phone:
Amazon.com: KaysCase Slim Hard Shell Snap-on Cover Case for Samsung Galaxy S3 SIII i9300 AT&T Verizon Sprint Tmobile with Screen Protector - New Model Snug Fit (Clear): Cell Phones & Accessories
and she got a pink folio case for her white phone:
Amazon.com: KaysCase Book Snap-on Leather Cover Case for Samsung Galaxy S3 SIII, Retail Packaging (Hot Pink): Cell Phones & Accessories
We both got Tetrax mounts for the car:

And I got 20 outdoor NFC tags (not sure what I'm going to do with them all yet):
tagstand - Outdoor Type 2 NFC Sticker (PVC) - Circle (30mm diameter)

Another week for me also. Here's the case I ordered...
Amazon.com: iTALKonline ProGel SOLID BLACK Super Hydro Gel Protective Armour/Case/Skin/Cover/Shell with HORIZONTAL VIEWING STAND for Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 III: Cell Phones & Accessories
I has a neat "kick stand" so the phone can sit upright on a table or desk.

The article suggests that those who pre-ordered should cancel their orders and go to the store, on the 10th, and pick one up. The problem with that is it would cause the loss of the unlimited data plan.
