Hey everyone! I have been following this thread for a while now and I have pretty much read almost everything so far and I have really enjoyed it. I was going to post a link that I think you guys would find really interesting about someone claiming to have used the Galasaurus Nex, but since I am a newbie here I can't. :(. Sorry for such a lame post guys.

Edit- galaxy nexus hand time - Android Forums

Edit 2- Looks like I can post things!!

1. Since it going to have a TI OMAP dualcore (4460 most likely) @1.5GHz, GPU is going to be SGX540 (most likely @ 384MHz).

Might want to check out BestBuy's trade-in program. They pay a little better.

Actually Ignore Best Buy. Target Mobile has a better trade-in program. It goes on a Target gift card, but the difference is with BB you have to buy into the program (something like $30 and I think you have to do that at the time you purchase a phone with them, cant do it later) with Target's they take your old phone, look up the model # in their system and it gives you a quote right there. They will also do video games, movies, iPods/Pads, Graphing calculators, nintendo DS. Its preferred you use that towards a cell phone right there, but you can use it on anything in the target stores.

Google has said an lot of things, but tbh i wont believe it till i see it. There was some alliance made up of htc moto samsung and goolge that was supposed to get updates to phones in an more timely manner. My captivate would still be running froyo if i hadnt rooted it an put cm 7.1 on it. Samsung hasnt released any updates for my phone since January I think....
Click to expand...

Remember this is the first release for phones since they made that commitment to updates. There's a lot of different things they could do. They could allow skinning, but make backend changes that subsequently make updates easier. Or they could do something similar to Touchwiz for Honeycomb, where the skin is basically just some widgets and minor refinements.

If this is true, it will be a huge huge let down for me. I really don't want to be forced into using cloud services once my phone storage is full. I refuse to waste data streaming my own content like that. :mad:

Yeah, seems a ;) is so sinister and very data cloud like.....

I agree on the :mad:

I was thinking exactly the same thing, "no comment" usually means there is some juicy info to hide...

Yeah, if it's just a normal docking connector for docks as usual, then what's there to be private about? Apparently, there is something very interesting about those three dock connectors that are on the side. Hmmm...

Still, I WILL buy a Nexus Prime IF the camera is 8mp and the GPU is the same one the iPhone 4s has (or better) but if its the old GPU from 2007 that is listed in the official specs of this thread then I am buying the iPhone 4s and biting the bullet until Android once again wows me.

Enjoy your brand new iPhone 4S!

If you don't understand logic, you quite frankly shouldn't be posting in these types of threads...Sorry to be rough, but your logic is just silly.

We don't have logic qualification tests (or Latin, for that matter), but we do have rules about decorum. Just sayin'. ;)

They made a commitment to timely upgrades at I/O 2011. This is the first release for phones since that time. I'm not quite sure what's hard to understand about that. I'm saying changes were likely made to accomodate that.
Click to expand...

I think I understood your intentions but not your interpretation of facts. (That's as much on me and isn't intended in any way snarky.)

Phones have been released since then, as well as Gingerbread updates.

Therefore: :confused:
 
Whatever Steven said +1


(Also i think i'm drooling over this phone a bit)...

Any rumors on a removable battery? I dont mind the lack of SD, but replaceable batteries are very helpful

But Gingerbread itself was released almost a year ago...if major backend changes are required to make updates easier in the future, it would make sense to wait for the next major release of the OS.

Oh, I am going mad with anticipation and worry, everyone. I have a bad feeling about the announcement. Wouldn't there be a deluge of leaks of some sort this close? Why is Verizon scheduling an announcement of their own, with RAZR, on the same date? Why won't Verizon be in Hong Kong?

I have done the unthinkable, ladies and gentlemen. I have changed my launcher to something drastic, in case I am screwed yet again by Verizon and have to go with a different phone. Hopefully this launcher will prepare me for what is to come in the near future.

Yes, it is safe for work. But you shall be disgusted nonetheless. Go ahead, have a peek. :(

And don't call me a traitor. I'm not one yet. But if Verizon screws me as they usually do, I won't care anymore. I won't. :(

Han...really? This is what it has come to? This isn't a launcher; this is sheer anger manifested into isheepish behavior. I am not one to judge; I have some doubts, too. But no way man; NO WAY!

I'm listed on a number of money making patents.

Whatever the dispute is, fwiw, I am certain that the present patent system is broken.

Most of this nonsense in court is a shell game.

The facts are out there and accessible, but not through the popular press or blogosphere.

OK to make a specialized thread for this, I'm sure that there are many interesting points and discussions to be had on this topic alone. ;) :)

Thank God! And we thought the PROCESSOR discussion was boring! haha ;)
