edit: or maybe because of it's huge screen...

Maybe this. A huge screen, no capacitive buttons, is definitely a 1st. But a true game-changer? I don't know about that.

When I think "game changer" in the phone industry, I think of that "Galaxy Skin" that was floating around the rumor mill briefly, with a screen that folds out like satellite wings.

"game changer" is something revolutionary. An HD screen with software buttons is nice, but not to everyone. . .hmmm.

Woohoo! Congrats, everyone.

Now, game changer? It could mean a lot. I think it means that this is the real next step up in the mobile world. I mean, the iPhone hit and we've been progressing steadily since, even android. This change in the game, I believe, will not only be quite a few things we haven't seen (facelock, nfc technology growing, etc...) but done so with real cutting edge technology. Recent speculations and activities have me really hopeful that we aren't just looking at the next cool device, but the next real step, for both hardware and capabilities. That's game changing.

The nda's are very scary to these guys. Trust me. I know this. Let's be grateful for what they do give us, rather than try to figure out who or what they are. You with me?

Yes! I'm with you Steven!

But what are nda's? :confused:
 
Maybe they will shock the excrement out of us and release this baby with a battery that lasts all day! That would be a game changer! :rolleyes:

I agree. I really wants to know some inside stuff but not at the risk of others jobs. ESPECIALLY when they're just trying to help us out.
 
@eyetek Forcing others to play catch up...I think that's a big part of it right there. I mean, what's the Droid HD going to really be like if nexus gets exynos? Still 1.2 for motor, probably, and that'd be behind.
 
Duh! Sorry guys. I knew that.

But what kind of heavy penalties?

Do Verizon employees work Saturdays? This might be his lunch period. Clicking on his profile, I can see he is watching us!

He's watching us.

You obviously haven't been keeping up with this thread then...cause that's what we all do here.........we take things to levels that are waaaay out there. Fun to speculate though. :)

Non-disclosure agreements. In many cases you can be subject to criminal and civil prosecution if you violate them.

Wow. I thought at most you'd lose your job. But jail time? Sheesh. No wonder there's hardly any leaks. :(

It's marketing speak. Whether it is or isn't only time will tell. They've got to be eyeing the iP and hoping of course.

I'm a tired first time dad. Part of my exhaustion stems from keeping up with this, wonderfully interesting, game changing, most popular on the internet, thread. :)

4500mA/h battery would be nice indeed :D

If they can get all significant components manufactured on a smaller scale, say, using the 32 nm process that many of you have read about, you'll get a lot more time out of existing smaller batteries.

Most of us here are running either 65 nm or 45 nm process chips (or a combination). If they could get all chips to 32 nm, that would mean about double the battery life for the same functions - depending upon how things are configured.

An NDA is merely a contractual document and violation of that contract would not put anyone in jail.

Misappropriation and dissemination of corporate property (ip/trade secrets) could but that's a different claim.

Agreed! This however, is not that far off...many companies are now working to come up with a "game changer" of a battery!
