Possible for Fascinate to launch with 2.2?

NKT is very legit. He's the one who got the first pictures of the Incredible on the internet that were subsequently posted by all the major sites.

NKT, what's your thoughts on the Fascinate? I have the X right now and wish it were a bit slimmer. Is the Fascinate something I should consider or do you think the X and Moto is a better/safer alternative?

The Facinate's screen is definitely nice. The Super AMOLED is crisp and vibrant. I haven't played much with the OS so can't speak to that, but the form factor is nice. It's thin and slim.

I can say, the biggest thing I've heard about the Facinate is the battery life. It's been said to be phenomenal!

Every time you post more good things about the fascinate I want it more, I must have it T_T.

Its been said to be phenomenal or it IS phenomenal? Hope you keep us in the loop on this phone. I will be getting it (or thats the plan).

I know one that went over a day with moderate use and still had about half left.

I know my brother has an X and its battery life is just insane, he goes from 7am to 10pm still has usually over 40% left.
Unless Fascinate is different from other SGS phones, I can't see it being that much better, although I am not quesitoning you.

All battery life stories are anecdotal. There are too many variables that affect battery life to extrapolate hard numbers in the real world.

Key point is, from what I've seen the Facinate has been more battery friendly than the majority of other devices out there.

OK thanks, another quick question.
Does heat ever get too hot?
I noticed when using Droid X with GPS and Need for Speed, the phone gets fairly warm. I realize that Droid X is very thin for its size. Fascinate is just as thin, and I wanted to know if it had the same condition.

It's a big benefit of a AMOLED screen. They consume very little power compared to other screens which is huge for phones since the screen is the biggest battery hog. Various tests have seen the Galaxy S get around two days worth of battery life. Insane for a smartphone running Android.
 
@NKT

Have you heard about any of the Benchmarks from the Fascinate?? Do they match up with the GSM versions??
 
I've been hearing that the GSM versions with the internal Memories have been having issues. Its made apparent by the I/O bench markings on Quadrant

It's a bug and has been solved by people over at MoDaCo. Benchmark scores showed it faster than the Nexus one with 2.2.
