Well I texted my sister about the SGN, to see if she's heard anything today.

It's early, so probably nothing til the afternoon, but I'll let you guys know if I get anything.

If there is anyone looking forward to this phone being released more than the stone cold pack of weirdos in this thread (meant in the most loving way possible), it has to be Han's sister, just so he will stop pestering the hell out of her. :D

If not, just ignore my stupidity. lol

It's some park in CT that I lived near last summer. Moved up there temporarily for the summer for an internship.

I just dont have any use for a pick up truck.That doesnt mean I dont like them. I had a Jeep CJ-7 That thing was as tough as nails.
 
I'll jump on the off topic subject of the day because I am more obsessed with cars than anything. This is my baby, off to wash her so please have some good gnex news when I return. :p

CIQ is a third party rootkit on many phones. It logs every single thing you do and sends it out to their servers in real time. It logs data, keystrokes, everything.

The only way to get rid of it if you have it is install a ROM that doesn't have it.

Edit: Google Experience devices do NOT have it.

Oh! My wife kept saying "Blanket looks just like Michael! Look at the eyes!" And I kept saying, "Uh, no, that's impossible, he didn't father any of them!" We almost bet $50 on it, but at the last moment I refused. Something told me that I might possibly be wrong. :p

your wife was right! :) too bad she didn't bet that $50!:D

Has anyone seen "Homeland"? I've got 8 or 9 episodes Tivo'd and my wife just texted me that we're running out of space, and that she's going to delete them if we aren't going to watch them. Is it good?

On topic:

Um, Nexus!!!

I drive a 2010 Doge Ram Crew 4x4. At 6'8" it is a necessity. It would be REAL interesting to see me try to get in and out of some these cars people are showing.

Right? We actually like it better than American Idol. But Simon is like night and day compared to his gig on AI, which leads us to believe that his whiny sour-puss was just an act.

Now he's all

Never owned a car in my life, all trucks still running my 98 dodge Ram reg cab 8 ft bed, I don't like car payments.
Ladies love country boys!

So the video last night I guess confirms the GNex has a micro-sim for Verizon. I currently have a T-Bolt and am going to buy the Nexus retail to replace it, but guess I can't just swap sims now without using an exacto.

I assume then that I'll have to call VZW to activate on my T-Bolt line just like the old days? That's the only thing about ATT that I miss - just swapping cards whenever I wanted to change phones. Thought that the new LTE sims would allow us to do it on Verizon but they keep changing the d_mn things!
Click to expand...

what video. I just read that it uses the standard size sim card. So the one in your Tbolt will work

So you would prefer to peruse a thread full of hide tags? Because there's nothing to report on the ON topic stuff. :confused::):confused::)
Click to expand...

There's plenty of things close to being ics/android/nexus/verizon related, however how do cars and trucks (especially with pics) fit in on this thread exactly? You guys/girls can do whatever you like, I'm just trying to be a voice of reason here since we have been asked my moderators in the past to use hide tags or take non-relevant conversations to other threads. :)
