Yeah, I saw that too. I did a double-take and then took a picture with my EVO after rewinding. Picture looks familiar...

Oh, I'm sorry, Cnet, but how in the frack is this the worst kept secret? Is it just me, or is this handset the biggest secret in android handset history?

Its like this with all phones before announcement. The only reason this one is getting more attention is because of the name Google/Samsung.

It is 100,000,000,000x less appealing than the other pic of the artists rendering

I agree there, but Cnet does not say Nexus. They are saying Android phone.. its a smart play on thier part.

Sorry there is no debate on the cpu, it is a Exynos 1.5 dual core.
I surely hope so!
but why no comments on apps in ICS? I guess no one really knows.

That's what I'm saying. As a tech site, they should at least acknowledge that no other android handset had remained under such tight wraps. I guess I do see a bit more apple love over in camp cnet, though.

About the soft buttons: I wouldn't be surprised if they were configurable by the user. Right now you can have certain apps take over the notification area, and in ICS there may also be some facility for particular apps to hide the buttons. Maybe launchers will be able to configure button visibility for all apps. Since they're soft, maybe you could have utilities to add extra buttons in the same area, or offer a double sized button bar. Will be interesting to find out what you can do with them!

If it shows an LED, then it looks great to me.

Terrible looking. I don't like the "lines" of the device. It has zero character. The render on the other hand has a real appeal to it. Its like night and day.

Indeed. And I'm sure I can safely say we are all watering at the mouth to get at some ICS.

Alright, I just lost an hour of my life. I didn't perfect it and make it perfectly, but THIS is the way it should look. Thank God for those Photoshop classes in college. haha
Not to say that you didn't make this but I've seen this on the net last week.
