    Are we expecting sales of these to explode?

    It took every ounce of strength not to use the phrase "fire sale" in the article...

    What bright spark thought this was a good idea? Sure they were hot when they were originally launched, but it's not as if the specs will set the world alight today. I think Samsung will end up getting burned by this.

    They don't want to set the world on fire. They just want to start a flame in your heart.

    I have a weird feeling these are going to be very popular.
    If Samsung manage to turn this into a net gain for the Note brand then I think we can finally conclude that there is indeed no such thing as bad publicity.

    I think so too - there were quite a number of people I believe who didn't send back their faulty note 7s simply because they were such excellent phones (asides from the whole exploding thing). Now the chance to be able to get one that's not going to burn your house down may be very tempting for some
