I take this opportunity to thank linker3000 on his/her recommendation to get a Note [1]. Even though I can only wish I were a busy IT professional, just as a technology enthusiast I'm in awe, having received my Note II this week.
I'd like to point out that, interestingly enough, the most disappointing aspect has been reading online text, such as HN, but not limited to it: my modest, Gingerbread-based HTC Explorer does a wonderful job wrapping text in its now seemingly tiny screen, and yet this Jellybean technology makes me reach for Accessibility options, for some reason makes it really hard to upvote [2], and Chrome's fancy font boosting technology manages to make some of the HN comments annoyingly small.
But still, it's hard not to drool...

[2] Yes, I have changed my HN identity, but I've been around for long.

That is probably not limited to the Galaxy Note or to Samsung: HN comments on a Nexus 7 have the same problem: text size on some comments is tiny compared to other comments (at least if you set the text size to large or huge in Chrome's Acessibility options). Puzzlingly, Firefox does the same thing even though it uses a different rendering engine than Chrome does.
