I hope they do not regret this decision…

I don’t care if the ban is lifted, if I had a Note 7 and it was not returned like it should have been, I wouldn’t dare turn it on mid flight… then again, I have a horrible phobia of flying… or more accurately, crashing… so… yeah, I hope I don’t read about anything horrible happening as a result of this.

You do realize that there is a really really small chance of a plane crashing, you have a much bigger chance dying of a car accident

Yeah, but if I crash my car the ordeal will be over in a moment, whereas with flying, you have that whole dramatic drop where you soil yourself, and cry like a lil baby.

Besides, I’m a good driver and am confident in my ability to avoid accidents. However, I don’t know the pilots on a plane. Hell, just last month I read about a couple pilots that were arrested for trying to board their plane legally drunk.

I know, I know, the odds of getting Charlie Sheen as my pilot are slim, but it’s something out of my control and that’s the thing that gives me anxiety.

This should be a major learning experience for Samsung. They’re going to comeback strong next year, and I can’t wait to get the Note 8.

I think they’ll go the extra mile and then some, to ensure this issue is never repeated. They’re gonna make next year’s Note, and S lines incredible.

Expect some idiots to try and tarnish the brand though. I’m all in with the Note as my daily driver. It’s an awesome, imperfect device.

We were going to eventually move on from this debacle, just a lot of immature kids on an old grumpy planet earth who act like they have no problems or dangers in their own life.
