Hehe I have 12 gbs on my phone and. That's it but it's kinds nice not having to another thing for music and it had the Beats audio too
 
there is no way i would upload pirated music to google music, thats asking for trouble


Pirated or not I ain't doing it. This whole trend of the Cloud thing has me turned off.

Google Music eh? Any time someone in business I don't personally know wants to do something for me for free out of the goodness of their heart I take pause to study.

BTW, mine are not pirated. I did a DJ a favor once and he asked me what he could do in return. I handed him a 500GB HDD. :eek:
 
All of this talk of Google Music has led to two things for me:

1. I just DL'd GM and am starting that process.

B. Whilst DL'ing GM, I noticed a tab...'calendar'....at the top of the screen. That got me thinking. I use my iCal a lot (on MBPro) and would like to take that with me on my SGN whenever I get it, as I don't use it on my blackberry and I hate not having it with me at all times. Will the SGN sync my iCal seamlessly, or will I have to go some other route for that?

I have both my gmail and my company's google apps email sync'd through iCal and my phone. If you start using your gmail account for your calendar, it will sync with no problem.

speaking of music. how do y'all think this is going to work in an armband?
im hoping it wont be so big that it will make armband wear uncomfortable. my droid / 3g is too unstable to take running with me but I'm hoping when I get the Nexus, I can stream music during my run while also running MyTracks.

How is that not pirated? Just because you didn't download it with P2P doesn't mean you don't have illegal digital copies of the music. Just sayin'...

I wouldn't suggest it, it's a pretty large phone, get a dedicated mp3 player, rock box it and throw in the microsd from whatever phone you are replacing.

I use the sense 2gb I got from a Woot! BOC, rockboxed and with a microsd slot I can easily change the music on there.
 
Here's my prediction for tomorrow...

We see more leaks of stores getting their stock. Pictures show up on the web. Even more sources come out and confirm sometime later this week. But we still hear nothing official from Verizon. I think Tuesday is the day we finally see a press release. Tuesday's are PR days in the US...no idea why, but Tuesday is always the day chosen for it.

Only question is, what are we hearing going to hear? Pre-orders for 10:00 AM Wednesday, release on Friday? General release for Thursday/Friday with no pre-order? Pre-orders next Tuesday with release on the 15th? Whatever it is, my money is that this guessing game comes to an end Tuesday, absolute latest Wednesday.
 
Good night Nexlings. I'm exhausted and am not gonna fight it tonight.
I even changed my avatar already for those who like to see her change on Sunday night
See ya'll in the morning.
 
Music stuff

I have about 5GB of music on my Dinc for when I am in a spotty 3G area, but I mostly listen to Tune In Radio and Slacker. At home, we listen to Pandora on a couple of Squeezeboxes.

The huge CD collection that I built in my yoot sits in plastic totes.
