Enjoyed your literary reference/comparison.

Just curious. Were you watching the videos in regular mode or A2 mode?

In regular mode, the experience is painful. In A2 mode, I have found it passable in a pinch.

Would not want to watch full length action films on it, but watching news clips or lectures isn't too bad.

Of course, not as smooth or as pleasurable as on a tablet so, as you say, the Note won't fully replace a tablet if you need to do much video viewing. But I did find it was possible in A2 mode which could be useful if you needed to travel light.
