No chance any of that is true.

I believe him as well but release dates are always a slippery slope. They can change daily and hourly.

Who:s to say the protype is "no indication" of the final unit. That's exactly what a prototype is supposed to be. But yeah I wouldn't read too much into these specs, doubt they're the final

Agreed.
Congrats on ASC-Child V.2!
Without using calculus, we could get a reasonably close value using an opisometer.
I hate to say it but another prime forum has over 154,000 views. Not near as many posts though
Consider the challenge ACCEPTED. I'll write a script to slashdot/ddos this thread. Mods, no need to thank me!
Somebody actually bought VZ Navigator?!
Including that the screen is 1280x720/4.65"?
I prefer Calculus, but I'll take Metrology for 200, Alex!
How do you think Steven got his post count so high?Consider the challenge ACCEPTED. I'll write a script to slashdot/ddos this thread. Mods, no need to thank me!

First of all, that is definitively not game changing!
Secondly, if it is real it was a prototype.
Thirdly, just add that to the list of 100 other configurations we have seen.
I'm going to believe Stephen when he says we will be happy1
HTC Advantage X501. 5" screen. Carried one for years
never even heard of it. but if you want to be all technical, is that even the biggest? probably not
but hey, you knew what i meant

How is a 1.2Ghz duel core not game changing while a 1.5Ghz would be? If anyone realistically thinks you will see this next gen Exynos (WHICH ISN'T EVEN IN PRODUCTION YET) then your going to be disappointed.

Very interested to see what we'll see on Tuesday. Either this or the Galaxy S3 will be my next phone

No metal and 16 GB with no expansion are uh oh.
But yeah, "prototype" is the key word. Don't think it's final by any means.

Something big is coming? What would be big? Remember the teaser video?
There were two items shown to make each other better when combined. So what combinations would be BIG?
*Samsung + 4G? - Already been done.
*Samsung + new OS version? - Already been done with GB when they released the Nexus S. Sure, ICS is new but there will be a new OS every year. As much as I think ICS will be a big improvement... I don't think it is the BIG thing here?
*Nexus Device with ICS + 4G? Sure I guess, but is this a given for this device.
*True HD screen + 4G? This is a possibility but again...not BIG.
So what do I think??? This combination is something that would change the way we use our phones. What is the biggest complaint about Android smartphones? Battery life!
*ICS + New battery technology? Ooohhhh wouldn't that be big? Imagine if there was a solar screen that trickled power back into the battery or just minimized the drain the screen caused. 1000 mAh battery that could run for days...Epic!
I just think there is going to be something more than what we already "know" or have speculated about.
Just my 2 cents
My guess on this is: ICS + VZW 4G LTE
Edit: But that doesn't apply to other carriers, so never mind...I suck at speculating.

Well, I was referring to all the specs....not the 1.2. I don't think I actually said that the processor in my post. When I think of game changer I think of something that isn't already available
Specificallly, the plastic and the 16 internal storage....very underwhelming.

1.5 GHz processor of any kind isn't really game changing. It's just a progression of current technology.

I find all of it credible, w/the single exception of 16GB w/o any microSD. If it didn't have a microSD slot, I'm pretty sure it'd need 32GB internal to be a credible bragging-rights phone.
The 5MP camera? Yes, I could believe that IF it's advertised as having superb lens/sensor and excellent low-light capabilities.

p3Droid is saying that it's got a newer radio and LTE chip

I just don't see how it can be so "thin" without this. ^^^ But I know it's been said next gen LTE chips are not in production yet.

Ohhhhhhhhh, I would like that very very much.
The Sammy phones in my personal experience have always done a top-notch job in taking pictures.
For two sensors of the same size, one 5MP and the other 8, the 5 will have less noise and tend to produce clearer images, all other factors being equal.
That said, I think that judging any camera ahead of time based just on the MP spec is a lot like judging a car just based on transmission gear ratios alone.
And for what it's worth - a single frame of a 1080p HDTV is about 2 MP -- so - how many MPs are _really_ needed?

curious about that as well because i've read the same thing.

Agreed. My Fascinate and Tbolt had pretty comparable cameras and there was a 3 MP difference between them.
