Well, after spending some time with it in Best Buy, I went ahead and bought one. While value for the money may be somewhat lacking, it's got some very nice features to it. I don't find the build quality as plastic-y as some of the reviewers claim. Over all, it seems very quite well made.
I do have a couple of small gripes, though. I use tablets at work, many times marking up wiring diagrams or machine drawings in pdf format. The pen is essential for this, and since my hands are often quite dirty I usually keep a spare in my shirt pocket, rather than undocking the (quite small and slippery) stylus. The Note 8 will not recognize stylus input unless the pen is undocked, so I either must use the integrated pen or leave it undocked and chance lossing it (been there, done that). The other gripe I have is the lack of flash for the camera - again, another work related gripe. Machine innards are often dark places...
