In this order: Palmer, Moore, Tebow (man, I hate that guy), Freeman, Hassel, Rex, Tavaris, Fitz, Ponder. The first 3 are about even - Bear better rush defense and OAK fast WRs = more passing, Moore playing very smart, going against tough Dallas D but Dallas will score and Miami will have to score to keep up, and Tebow will inexplicably keep being above average against a SD team that is coming unglued - then the drop-off starts.

I would rather start my unborn daughter than Ponder, Fitz or Tavaris. Ponder has no AP, Fitz has no Jackson and going against the Jets, and Tavaris is, well, Tavaris.

Good luck.

Guys, I know that OT stuff is allowed in this thread, but I personally would like to ask that you get and give your fantasy football advice somewhere else please? It's one thing to banter back and forth about an upcoming game or rivalry, but IMO this is taking it to far. I love my fantasy team, and enjoy playing and reading threads about it, but not on AF. I like to talk about, read about, and joke about phones and tablets here.

Not to be Negative Nancy, but that's because people thank him when he tells them goodnight.

Steven is doing a magnificent job with a tough thread (Steven, here's my thank you for that), but let's be honest, there are many instances where the above is true.

Actually, your logic isn't sound. You literally reiterated to Ken7 what he was saying. Bugs will get worked out. They will get worked out on the Nexus. When they do, ICS will be better for it. When the improved ICS gets pushed to HTC and Moto, they will have better starting points. That's essentially what Ken7 said. The big question for many is this: Is the Nexus fundamentally better than the other 2 R phones? If ICS is the ONLY thing that makes it better, it's possible that one of the other 2 phones will be better in the future. I don't have the answer, just suggesting that it's a valid point.

No you missed my point. I know other two R phones will get ICS and updates on it too for sure. But they got manufacturer UIs slapped on it along with load of bloats which will slow down the update process significantly. Just look at Nexus S vs others on GB updates.

Oh no!

Kind of hideous actually. :(

Yes I agree not the best looking phone...ugh...but it looks like it isn't as straight on as the GSM one...and its still pretty thin. Plus the ICS is really what I am after!
 
Yeh this week sucks. On vacation and no new phone and a really buggy BF3 to play. I hope Steam puts some Fallout NV DLCS on sale so I can waste some time on those this week.

Well sure - but then again - lots of people get thankful when mods leave, yes?
Wait - maybe that only applies for me - maybe I should start saying goodnight! :D:D:D For Steven, I think they're just happy he's getting some well-earned rest. ;)

I can understand not wanting to click out to a different forum, since those don't get checked very often.

I would suggest doing something like what I've been doing:

Off topic:

example

On topic:

Blah blah blah, Nexus Nexus Nexus, blah blah blah.




That way people don't have to click on the show button and can read the on topic stuff and respond to that if they want.

That's not a good angle on the LTE model. You can clearly see where the battery cover meets up with the chin at the bottom.

True but I'm talking about the different color, not the thickness. The color scheme on the GSM version is much, much cleaner in my opinion.
 
hmm.. this lines up with a rep at a non-corporate store told me a few days ago (tiny store in NYC's Penn Station). Since everyone says something different, didnt make much of it, but here's another data point in the "right before xmas" direction. and again, it's a non-corporate store, so that could be a different beast entirely.

i know P3Droid isn't everyone's favorite around here but he and @tfleming223 are hinting the nexus may not be here until around Christmas. If that's the case i don't think i'll be getting the phone at launch. I'll wait for CES to see what's on the horizon.
