Android 4.4 coming to Devices With As Little As 512MB Of RAM

That sounds more like the ROM you're using rather than stock android. Also rare to see someone say they like Touch wiz

Touchwiz is the stock Samsung rom, where you swipe to call and text, the Samsung also syncs better with your FB account and I can for example have it link all my FB friends with contact numbers even if they were not on my phone, I have downloaded about 4 apps to synch FB pics with my contacts and it just doesn't get all of them.

I'll miss the new clock widget which I really like with 4.3 but I bet I would be able to DL a duplicate widget.

I'm very excited about 4.4, it looks like a game changer. Google has specifically made some decisions to allow non-rooted non-vanilla users to ditch some of the vendor apps, without having to root. Smart smart smart.

That said, as soon as a 4.4 ROM is a available for my S3, I'm rooting and installing.

The sync issue will be your contacts/sync app, rather than your ROM giving the issue. The ROM itself doesn't handle anything like that.

I know, but so far every app I have tried cannot do what the Samsung contacts app can do, which is infuriating. . .

Yeah, I get that. I was just trying to emphasize that the blame doesn't lay with the ROM itself.
