Oh shoot, if you're really from Verizon I'd hope you'd be better plugged in than that. :(

Given that he's probably an engineer (hands on Prime?) or a tester who works for Verizon, you'd think he would get them for free.

But then again, this is Verizon we're talking about. :rolleyes:

So what they're telling me is that they had their hands on a prime and all they decided to do was highlight the music player in this article????

Seriously???

Given that the colors in the notification bar are different from the ones in the leaked video of the Prime, they never had it. Those screenshots are most likely of the Music 4 apk on their Bionic or something.

I don't think so. Look at 1:13 on the video. It seems like he's turning it off using the right side.

Wow, so I checked the vid again and at 0:18 you can see the button on the right. You're correct ;)

^Now we have one more phrase to use when certain people slip into angst. :D

@vz_wired...could you please let us know who's got this thing nailed? There has to be a post somewhere that covers it perfectly. Could you perhaps quote said post and then use some ^^^ or something. It's not like you're actually saying anything, one of us is the person who said it. :)

The screenshots are both from a non-ICS device..
 
Its weird to step back in the real world for a bit. Hahaha. People talk to me about something and I'm thinking "That doesn't matter! What's going on with the nexus!? "

Crazy how many different worlds there are within this one.

I know. I think that what we all have is definitely diagnosable. Seriously, guys. My wife is a psychologist and I can't even think of what she'd say if I told her how I spend my work day. :(

Not trying, at all, to toot my own horn (so to speak) but I kinda think I'm right, or at least close. I may not be, but in my mind I think that I've kinda got it figured out.

Not considering it a toot b/c I also think you may be the source of his reference.

sorry guys, but i disagree. at the 1:13 mark, when the power button is activated, you can see his thumb flex, but the fingers don't move. to me, that means the power button is on the left side, and the buttons showing up at 1:18 is the volume rocker.

I see both his thumb and forefinger flex. One of them is flexing for bracing.

Geez. Has it come to this? Arguing over flexing fingers? :p
 
Now, as much as I would love to, I cant tell you guys when the exact date the prime will be released. but being an ex Best buy mobile employee I CAN give you a Hint.

Is the phone a hint? Red and black = VZ.

It's coming on a date that coincides with a combination of those numbers, right??

I love that this is what we've been resigned to look for; subtle finger movements and thumb flexure :)
 
i'll just quote myself from page 68:

Specs i expect:

1) Exynos 4212 SoC - DualCore 1.5GHz (including a brandnew [better] GPU, maybe PowerVR SGX 544MP2)
2) 1GB Ram
3) 4,65" sAmoled HD (1280*720) [curved screen]
4) 4G LTE ready; also NFC-Chip built in
5) GSM/CDMA-Radio
6) 2000mA battery
7) around 130-140g 'heavy'
8) ~9mm thick
9) 5MP/8MP Camera with 1080p Video-Recording and enhanced sensor + 2MP FrontCamera for 720p Video-Calls (over LTE/Wifi)
10) Status-LED

THIS would be the ultimative Phone...
and of course "something big" and a candidate for "Gaming & Entertainment Enthusiasts" ;)

And i expect it to come out on verizon exclusive for ~ 1 month, and then the other US-Carrier following... but the rest of the world will get it @ the same time, verizon does in the US


Ps: vz_wired pls comment on my dreams :D

notice my last sentence... maybe vz_wired is refering to my post?
Wouldn't this be awesome? :D

edit: oh and compare my expected specs with the GSMarena ones... pretty close, right?
