Same here. I'm staying away from the reviews and pictures of ICS because it will just drive me nuts.
I think you are underestimating Google's clout at this stage in the game. Android is outselling iOS by a wide margin.
If Google (who, by the way, is soon going to be the proud owner of Motorola Mobile Solutions, which happens to be Verizon's favorite) told Verizon, "Look, you either put out a pure Nexus device on your network, with no VZ crap on it, or we take Android with us and you can limp along on a platter of only iOS, RIM, and WebOS. . . .and by the way, we're taking away Motorola from you. . ." what do you think would happen?
No wonder Verizon was pissed at Google and Samsung, but could apparently do nothing. They have no leverage anymore.
I see what you are saying but this is still a lot of assumption. I hope you know I'm not arguing km only trying to bring to the conversation something that is being overlooked. In the absence of any real information its simply a conversation that i personally beleive has some merit.
Whether it happens or not is beside the point
