CK is great. Just don't look for sugar coated responses and your all good.
If you want me to see it don't hide it. I am really tired of seeing all the hidden anticlimactic results. I have read every post in this thread and the show buttons just get in my way and add to my carpel tunnel.
I agreee,
Also a photographer I have more cash in my equipment that some do in new cars. I sympathize with the masses wanting perfection in a phone cam but am I impressed with the new ground gained in the GN camera's auto focus and fps speed.
Heh! Its 50/50 the way I see it between euphoric and anticlimactic.....
I have mentioned before I tried one a while back and the Batt life was horrid. I really wanted to like the phone. What killed it for me was the low audio volume and felt vibration across the board and its inability to properly load a difficult site I regularly use that the OG did with ease. That was maybe 6 mos ago. Maybe your is better in some ways than my copy was.
And this is why I've kept saying the Samsung hardware scares me, ICS or not. I've never had anything but bad experience with Samsung phone hardware.
I think this is it for me. I'll either get the Razr or Rezound and wait for ICS to show up on them. Much better hardware in either case IMO.
Wow! Your numbers are higher than mine. I barely hit 100 minutes total for a billing cycle. I think I need to find a few friends
Hi all. I had been holding out hope for a release tomorrow, and I signed up at the Verizon and Google sites for notifications. On another forum it was agreed that historically notifications from Verizon have always gone out 24 hours before preorder or order availability, and I've seen no such notification. So I think we can (sadly) lay the 21st to rest as a likely launch date.
so is there a new rumor that i missed yesterday? or is the rumor still for 12/8 launch?
Well, there was that Verizon doc that listed the GNex as the replacement for the Droid Charge. Had a lot of people worried that the GNex was going to be a watered down phone hardware wise (must have been around post 10,000 or something ancient like that).
Oh, and as far as the release date of the DInc, I believe it was April 17 with a release at the end of the month, so a couple week lead.
Droid incredible timeline. Official Release date announced April 14th, preorder opened midnight 18th, and phone launched 29th (received early by me and others the 28th)
i read a lot about people not liking samsung hardware.... but from my past experiences, i have had the best luck of any manufacturer with samsung and some of the worst with htc and moto, especially htc
It's kinda pathetic that most of the major news sources (Abc CNN etc.) are talking about the Nexus while Verizon sits quiet on the subject.

Really? I've never had a problem with Samsung hardware. Before I started using smartphones Samsung and Nokia were the makers of the best phones out there, IMHO. My Fascinate has rock solid hardware in it and has been great with that respect. The only issue I've ever had with Samsung is there software and the length of time it takes them to send out updates, but I think the update thing is only a problem in the US. Other than TouchWiz, I think Samsung makes a fantastic product.

I really hope it doesn't launch on Black Friday. I loathe that day, but if it meant that I could get the GNex, I'm push my way through the crowd for it. I really hope an Monday/Tuesday/Wedneseday release.
HAHAHA You're speaking my language. I think the only people I speak to on a regular basis with my mobile is my boss and family who are on the same plan. In fact, I just looked at my account details online because I was curious. 14 days into the billing cycle and I've used the following:
MINUTES: 161mins on peak, 42mins off peak, 216mins family, 102MtoM peak, 77MtoM off peak, 0weekend
DATA: 1.3GB Which seems really low to me.
Oddly enough, I'm connected a great deal of the time. At my full time job I quite literally have my Music player on all day, streaming from GMusic. So those of you who were wondering/speculating about streaming music from the cloud because of the missing SD card, take that into consideration. I do not use the browser as much as I used to because its just so painful on this fledgling phone. I am on G+ quite a bit though through out the day. I'm not entirely sure about the background process that are syncing. I know I cut fBook and twitter off from pulling data in the background. Basically, I consider myself a moderate to heavy data user, so that number up there really surprised me.

I believe I remember a reply here in the beginning that"You will have the phone in your hand when you get a release notification from Verizon".
QFT.
Aside from call quality (which Moto does very very well), Samsung is top of the line when it comes to hardware. Their software support....not so much. That's why a Samsung phone with software, support, and updates direct from Google = amazingness.
Just look at the Nexus S. Single core processor and a year old, but it has kept up with the pack of dual cores very nicely, due to the extreme level of software optimization Google put into it.
