For the Galaxy tab all the models are different carrier wise almost like all the galaxy s phones correct? Then why are there not different sections for sprint t-mob orange etc. I have a sprint tab, would I be able to do the same things everyone else with a tab can do from another carrier?

I will be getting it when it is released, sounds like some time in July. I hope US cellular uses similiar software as the other carriers. I have the s2 and is rooted, but not much else is compatible so hopefully the s3 will have more options once rooted as the other carriers. US cellular is the only carrier in my area with 4g service, so that is why I am staying with us cellular, why pay for a 4g phone if you cant utilize 4g I figure

I have researched the various carriers and offerings for a yr or so anticipating a new phone upgrade myself. US Cellualar uses CDMA technology for the service which is the lesser used of the 2 in the USA. The other is GSM, which constitutes 70% of the market here. I currently have a I Wireless Galaxy Vibrant S which is a partner of T-Mobile. This is GSM based and has had quite an extensive ROM development on xda. I have checked the CDMA US Cellular models on xda and have found none. I checked other CDMA phones and found some Sprint and Verizon phones. Their coverage lacks in my area. Do not hope for development on xda on a US Cellualar version of the SIII. I hope I'm wrong. Although, due to coverage issues, I may still be getting the US Cellualar SIII. My second choise is AT & T which also is a GSM carrier, but coverage in my 2 areas of need is worse than US cellualar. Good luck.

The market share is so small that there is little development on GSM phones save some Sprint phones (Sprint also uses GSM). Therefore, do not hope for development on xda on a US Cellualar version of the SIII. I hope I'm wrong. Due to coverage issues, I may be getting the US Cellualar SIII.

Are you sure that US Cellular is GSM? They are a CDMA carrier, I believe you have facts incorrect

Reverse all my comments concerning GSM and CDMA in the quoted text. I got mixed up. I edited the original post. Thanks dzonzik.
Here's the carriers and their technology types:
CDMA: Alltel, Sprint, U.S. Cellular, Verizon
GSM: AT&T, T-Mobile
iDEN: Nextel
But, xda has not been a ROM developer for US Cellular phones. Some Verizon and Sprint though.

Talked with a US Cellular store Rep and she related it should be coming out around 9 July
Just curious but why isn't there a section for the US Cellular based Note 2? Where should talk of their variant be on xda?
My thoughts exactly verizon has its own thread and its not even been released yet. Ive had my note 2 for a week now and cant find squat for it.
Just a quick question... I recently switched from Sprint to US Cellular, and there is nowhere near the support or development for this carrier. I understand they are a much smaller carrier & this could be the issue but I'm just a little surprised that there isn't more developers on board.
