It's great if you are coming from ICS, it is unbelievable if you are coming from ginberbread.
Morning Liamo, call me Pup, everyone else does, and it's shorter to type.

I can't imagine my daily driver being on anything less than ICS anymore. I'm not sure I would be able to find my way around.

Morning friends.
Hello to all the new faces.
Ryan: sorry to hear about your job situation.
Razor: nice RSS.
Apollo: Jelly Bean is crazy good. Android is at its best in Jelly Bean. But I would say that if you are on Gingerbread, CyanogenMod is still beast mode.
Gotta run, baby just woke up! Sheesh. It's only 647a!

I'll agree to that whole-heartedly. JB is so much more of an improvement even from ICS and ICS was leaps and bounds ahead of GB. I think JB has finally put Android where it needs to be. Very solid OS and will compete very strongly with iOS.
Stigy - Nice pic! Cool to see the progress on the new Trade Center tower. Wife and I plan on coming back to NYC after completion.

Morning, still stock. Nothing wrong with JB, so no need to flash anything. Funny, buy a Nexus for the ease of flashing roms, but because they are updated (non VZW anyway
) to the latest Android quickly, the need to flash is diminished.

Flashed AOKP B1 and Codename 3.3.1. I don't know if it was AOKP or Faux kernel (most I have talked to think it was the kernel..I'd probably agree) but one of those killed my battery overnight from a full charge. Codename has been excellent though. Been off the charger for 18 hours now. 2 hours and 33 minutes of screen on time. Still at 64% battery. I anticipate 5+ hours of screen on time with this. Most of that screen on time was streaming a movie through Netflix as well. Really, the only reason for flashing a ROM on mine was in hopes that I could change backlight levels, go to circle mod battery, and add a 4th softkey for search and voice search on long press.
For quick voice search I just swipe up from the home key (loading Google now) and say google and whatever I am searching for unless I am missing something.

I just like the option of being able to press and hold something and have it pop up. Seems more natural to me than swipe up and say google

Yep, I'm pretty simple to satisfy. Keep me up to date and don't load a bunch of crap on it and I am pretty happy. Other devices need custom roms for that but make it a bitch to do. The Nexus makes it easy to do but mitigates the need.
