Running the S2E4GT from Crawl (sprint) with ICS 4.0.3.
Last I checked a couple months ago there was still no official ICS release for my device, but what I'm running is a stock deodexed 'beta' leak from Samsung, minus Touchwiz. ***** seriously fast and battery life is boss. Pretty heavy usage throughout the day and average 22 hours on each charge, though most of my usage is on the office Wifi. Network data (depending on signal strength) will take anywhere from 2 - 6 hours of that life away. The _ONLY_ thing that doesn't work is Android's built in picasa upload option from the gallery.
Wanting the S3 hardcore..

I'm a little frustrated that I have a 3-week old phone and can't load JB yet. The mobile device market is bullshit. I should be able to run whatever I want on any device I want. I don't understand how Microsoft can lose in court for not facilitating the use of competing products like Firefox or Chrome because they didn't have links to the alternatives on their website or whatever, yet we are stuck in this position.

If you can suggest a viable solution for these massive companies to increase the speed at which they produce releases, distribute and support them them to hundreds of thousands of handsets on hundreds of wireless carriers please reach out to them. I am sure they will love to hear your proposal.

How is it possible that AOSP, for example, already has a JB rom for the GS3, yet Samsung doesn't?

All I want to be able to do is view what I'm replying to in landscape mode, yet it seems to be an unfeasibly difficult thing to do on android.

If you want the latest and greatest from android as its available then get a google nexus. Hardware compatibility is guaranteed as they develop for their devices.
