Has anyone seen this comparison article from this morning?

HTC Rezound vs. Galaxy Nexus vs. Droid Razr: specs showdown ? Cell Phones & Mobile Device Technology News & Updates | Geek.com

 

[xs301]

Well, I'm here. Finished watching my DVR'd Fringe episode for tonight.

Is anyone still here? I'll be around a little bit.

Good show. I still have to see mine on the dvr.

Really? I've only seen it a few times, but he always sounded so British to me.
<----Shrugs and sighs. Not a Trek fan, sorry.

Off Topic

Spoiler

I love Star trek!

But you're right, the actor Patrick Stewart is English, and sounds english... But his character Jean Luc Picard in the show is French.

On Topic:

Soooo Excited to get my hands on the GNex!

Hanging out with one of my co-workers before our weekend USAF Reserve Duty.
He just got the iPhone 4S and I was giving him crap... lol

We Had some fun playing with Siri.

Then, I Told him all bout the GNex... Now he's Jealous.



Edit: My OT part was Ninja'd by Steven58 & Ninjak.

Red,

You know if I have something I immediately tell everyone. I'm not into holding onto stuff for any reason. I don't play games. I'm just as excited as everyone else. My sense is that there isn't much more information to be had, really.

We pretty much know everything except:

1) The price breakdown (if there's a difference between the 32 and 16 gb, heck even if there IS a 16 gb for VZ)
2) The actual release date confirmed by vz. That bit of info will obviously have to come directly from vz because we have their supposed internal documents.
3) Confirmation of battery size.

That's pretty much it, the way I see it. We already got everything else leaked or revealed. The way I see it, we coasting until verizon goes public.

You forgot dimensions! We still have no idea how thick the LTE version will be. I don't know how I feel about the "little bit bigger" comment.... I don't want to carry around a brick when the alternative (Razr) is only 7.1mm.

I thought I heard British in his voice. The character being French does make sense with the name now that I think of it.

I think it is horrible that they make our military dress up like elves. Is it a holiday thing or just budget cuts?

Eh... I'm carrying around the Droid X. Why would I care about dimensions.

lol!


Edit: welp.. I'm going to bed. Happy 22k everyone!

 

[darejer]

Yes, thanks. Actually was a decent article.

Agreed... seen so many of those... but this one was really good. The need to revise that battery spec, though

Don't I actually get my own avatar in 3 more posts?

I have a good one to use...

One more?

How do I add an avatar?

I'm very excited about no longer being "junior". My mother can now be proud.

 

[Ninjak]

Bedtime for me, too. Goodnight, gang!

That elf costume would probably be more effective than the current USAF ABU uniform. That was a multi-million+ dollar mistake! Thankfully they're transitioning to Multicam uniforms for deployed personnel.

Trying to think of something on topic to post with this but am drawing a blank. lol

Spoiler

At least I've learned to "hide" my off topic stuff so it doesn't get deleted right away hopefully

 

[ASC]

Off to bed.

G'Night Gnexicans! See you in the A.M.

Edit: Congrats on whoever get's 22K. Will this be the first late night milestone we hit?

Congrats! Go into user CP (control panel) (top left of any forum page). Click into it, hit edit avatar and the rest is easy. You can only have a certain size. If you want a bigger size, you can become a vip member for 20 bucks and join is in the VIP lounge and schmooze.

 

[OfTheDamned]

Well at this rate we won't see 22k tonight.

 

[MMcCraryNJ]

Oh there's a late night crowd here? I don't feel so alone anymore

 

[darejer]

Well at this rate we won't see 22k tonight.

OTD... you edited me... must have two more posts to no longer be junior... searching for strength to make it to the finish line... might not make it

I feel the same way. I don't need a tablet, so anything that fits in my pocket is good for me. It is a great thing the SGN fits! I still can't believe it is coming to Verizon! When I switched service, I never expected Verizon to get a Nexus device. I thought their desire to control everything would never allow it. Now that I think about it, maybe having the iCrap on the network helped. This may have paved the way for Verizon to be more open to not being able to control everything about a device. If so, thank you Crapple!

 

[darejer]

Like my Avatar? And yes, that is a GN in his mouth

 

[darejer]

That's what I'm going to look like when someone tries to touch my GN!

 

[Steven58]

nice avatar!

 

[darejer]

nice avatar!

Thank you, thank you. I stupidly thought that I had to be a "member" to post one. Been waiting for a while until I reached 100 posts

Lol. You got your two post. Congratulations!

Yea, sorry. Multi posting is ok on occasion, but is generally frowned upon so I needed to merge them all. No hard feelings?

Well, they did it with the OG droid and the Droid Eris. Then came the love of Bing (lord knows why) and the bloatware just expanded from there. I'm hoping that ICS will change that in a lot of ways, although with them knowing that bloat can be shut down, it may entice them to load even more bloat on future phones. Maybe Apple did help this in some way, if so I actually thank them for it.

Maybe the bloat and extra bloat is actually a good thing if we can now get rid of it. The more bloat that they put, the more storage space they need to put into the phone!

Was the Eris vanilla android? I thought it wasn't.
