...which can be triggered ... by glancing at it.

That's scary.  Is this device watching me all the time?  How does it know I glanced at it?

Let it be thicker (than shown), thus delivering on 2 common asks:
   1. Longer battery life (fill the space with a bigger battery)
   2. Flush back-camera

Because we readers track the competition.

 I wouldn't be surprised if returned Note 7's found their way back in consumers hands with no change at all. 

And what are the airlines to do, refurbished or not? How can they verify?

+1

This is my concern.  Bad idea (but i realize that Samsung wants to find a way to recoup some money on the devices they needed to take back from consumers.)

Will "Series-0 Aluminum" owners upgrade to "Series-3 Stainless Steel"?

Many people -- including me -- purchased the lowest-priced Series 0 as an experiment, since we didn't know (a) if we'd like it, and (b) if the Wearables category would survive.  The answer is 'yes' to both questions, so those early adopters may upgrade to a more expensive model during their refresh cycle.
