***Official Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release speculation thread**

Today was supposed to be the day his store got its shipment of 50 SGN's, right?

That's what he was told

Congrats! Although I can't help but see the name Asus and think Wal-Mart (not that Wal-Mart is inherently bad. I shop there all the time, just not for electronics). I want to like it but maybe I'm just too uneducated about the Asus name brand.

Bet this has been answered but i just read it now.

Asus makes PC equipment and has been making it for at least 20 years. Most of the pc's i have built i used Asus motherboards. They make some very nice laptops and have gotten great reviews on their hardware. The first transformer tablet i think is the #2 selling tablet behind the ipads, and you can't beat the bang for the buck from them.

And yes I'm waiting for both a Nexus and a Prime myself.

If you deem "good one" as two mediocre teams playing against each other...

Two teams in the top 20, hardly mediocre in my opinion....l

I just realized we have not had our dose of optimism from our resident sophomore. Scott where are you?????

Didn't he have like 500 posts in two days?

Spoiler

Maybe he got a spanking for too much computer usage too.

Haha, I see you live in SEC west country.

Correction: $EC

Ok, back on topic... nope, really got nothing here. I'll keep digging until I have to take to the skies. I hate traveling with this friggin' phone. Guaranteed, it'll die for good when I'm out of town.

Right in the heart of it...to bad I'm a fan of a team that is consistently at the bottom of the SEC West But hey, when a 5th place SEC West team rolls into the Gator bowl and beats MEEEECHigan 52-14, you can't complain too much as a fan, lol. Mississippi State fan....FYI

That's twice today I have choked while reading because of laughter. I may never learn.

IGN

Gaming reviews mostly, but they have a lot of stuff. Movie and TV reviews, cheat codes, etc.

I've never had a problem with them, but apparently they're not top-notch.

As the saying goes..."you can't spell ignorant without IGN".

Hey!

Please follow OfTheDamned's sig - if you see something bad, don't retort, just report.

Retorts get cleared out with the other stuff and just make work for us trying to thread clean an unnecessary flame war.

Penn State / South Park stuff deleted - now drop it.

Yeah, but wasn't Ronald McDonald the coach of the Wolverines last year?

Just giving you a hard time. My team isn't even ranked, but then again 4 of our 6 losses are BCS top 10 teams.

Not everywhere My kiddos have off this entire week. Wish I did...heh

It will be interesting to see data speeds on Verizon's LTE network once it becomes populated with LTE devices. Will be a few years, but I wonder if they'll stay above 10/5

Hey Guys! The Galaxy Nexus is going to have voice typing! They copied Siri!

Siri, What Do You Think of Voice Typing on the Galaxy Nexus? - Tech & Trend

(At least that is what I got out of this article)

Wow, that article was poorly written and jumped all over the place...Why is Siri being compared to the voice dictation software in ICS? Am I missing something?

 

[jbdan]

It's a school day!

Are you skipping? Or is it playing hookie?

Only FBS college football game I have ever been to was at MSST. Loved the stadium. Cowbells, not so much. (Fla fan, got to watch Tebow's worst game ever, eh, still worth it).

Hah! If only this applied any pressure on Verizon to get their phone out the door but unfortunately, it won't do anything.

However, I can see how this would be a tempting offer for those whom are willing to switch over and/or buy the Nexus at full price.

I've wondered this too myself. I guess we'll find out....hope they keep using our hard earned dolares to put it into their network right!

Someone had a deadline and nothing to write about, so they made a quasi connection between the two. There really is no corellation other than talking to the phone.

Edit: WooHoo! Just realized that was my 300th post! I guess that explains all of the work piling up on my desk!

To be honest Penn State wasn't even supposed to be close to a Big 10 title this year, so I m just enjoying the ride......Wisconsin was actually the team that was supposedly going to destroy everyone this year, so yeah.....they are more of a disappointment than anyone in the conference.

Glad you enjoyed it. The cowbells do get loud, but as a fan I love it. That was the game where Banks had a 100 yard INT return right at the half, great game, but we came out on the losing end sadly.
