My Fav is The Macallan single malt. The 12 year is usually in my price range when I indulge. When I win the lotto I'll be getting a bottle of the 30 year at $999 a bottle. :eek::D

All the new rumors are getting me excited! I think I need to join in the libation. I'm a big single malt fan myself and Macallan is one of my go-to's. The 18 year is awesome, but I think the day I have the Gnex in hand I'll have to pour myself a glass of Glenrothes 1972. Something I bring out only on special occasions.
 
I don't have alcohol on hand!!!

But come Thursday and Friday I'll be drinking Whipped Cream Vodka and Orange Crush(dreamsicle, my favorite flavor)

Evidently yes.

The OP states that news or info when significant will go into the OP - that's as far as anyone need go for updates.

From there, the OP expressly states by our site Admin, Phases, that this thread is _exactly_ to have some info and friendly banter, in the manner of a Lounge-like thread.

Hope this helps.

I thought this was a beer thread? Seems that is the perfect topic for the lounge thread.

And GOSH! What if someone here doesn't partake of alcohol is offended by all this drinking talk?
 
My Mom is sending me her old pink blackberry pearl to tide me over. I hope my old bb pearl flip will work (it had some water damage, but I think it was more battery related) with her battery (they're the same), or I will be using that phone sparingly until the nexus releases :p I hope 12/8, or that will be a painful 2-3+ weeks O_O
 
Just wanting to chime in with some Nexus news.

The screen is not 4.65" diagonally. In fact, it's bigger than 4.7"

http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-nexus/454497-screen-size-question-existing-owners.html

Measurements with and without the screen buttons are accounted for, and a little separate math predicting the actual final measurements - it's confirmed.

Steven - I think a link to that thread in the specs section of the OP is warranted.

What I want to know is why Google isn't getting that spec right publicly.

What does TBH mean? It doesn't work being used as "To Be Honest" in this context. Can anyone explain? Thanks

Sounds Tasty! I'd love to try it! But, I looked it up and at around $400+ a bottle, I'm going to have to wait till I graduate college and get a job! lol

Has anyone else seen the talk about poor signal? I've seen two different tweets about it now. Little worried about that.

Hope this isn't true. I wouldn't buy a phone with poor signal. The more negative things I hear about this, the more I wonder why I'm still waiting instead of buying a Rezound.

Team BlackHat...a team of devs...P3 was the first of the team to get the LTE Gnex(engineering device for testing) and then had one sent to the rest of his team...they've been testers for more than a few weeks now

If I'm not mistaken, P3's tweet last night said that 4.0.2 seem to help dramatically with signal

Edit...here's the text .. "okay, so todays update gave my 4.0.2 a newer radio, and so far I'm seeing improvement in reception. VZW users, know that thisgnex us getting better all the time"

My bad - you cats are fine.

Off-topic is fine, until we get sufficient reported complaints, or until it turns into a thread hijack.

The other guy is venting displeasure at most of my posts, I think it's disruptive, that's what I was asking to have at end.

I'll be hitting beer-thirty myself in no time and I think watching Episode IV is a must.

How's that? :) ;)

The Rezound isn't perfect. Just read more and more people are complaining about interference while using headphones. A phone that a huge selling point was sound and music having this issues is not a good thing.
