leaks galore, the 8th is looking good! it didn't take me nearly as long to catch up this morning with all the hide tags, but reading through the posts was a lot less entertaining.
i personally miss the off topic posts/pictures. it's what made this thread fun, and it's what makes this forum, as a whole, differ from all the rest. clicking show 20 times per page gets old fast.

I WANT IT TOO!!! OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!1111 one one one
I just watched the video:
Genuine Samsung Galaxy Nexus Vehicle Dock - ECS-K1F2BEGSTD - YouTube
IT uses the pins for connection. I think it was the time in the car dock with the cable hanging out of the port that put all the weird pressure on my Droid's port, eventually causing it to break.
And an audio port! I might actually use my phone for music... have to look into those little features that made me keep my iPod around (gapless MP3 playback, soundcheck-like normalization, shuffle by artist) and see if progress has been made.
It has a hole for the camera to be usable! Combine that with that time-lapse video feature, and I can make a cute video of every road trip I take.
I'll have to see if I can find his phone number... the 24 music was cool, but he also did some video game music, one of the James Bond games, and said that it was really fun to do, because he had to compose different feeling movements for each section, depending on how they did in the game.

I think the hardest part is deciding On vs. Off Topic. There's a gray period and opinions can differ. It's a hard problem to solve, and unique to this situation really.
It's worth taking a look at, but then if some On Topic stuff gets hidden, I could see complaints saying people are using the Off Topic tag wrong. This particular issue has been around since pretty much the beginning of the Dinc thread.

Even I was scratching my head watching the first video and reading the comments. It would be rather asinine for the GNex not to auto-rotate when placed into the landscape dock. That would pretty much defeat 1/2 the purpose of the dock for me to some degree. I know the Moto phones used the magnet trick to activate certain dock modes, but I would expect something not requiring a special launcher to be able to handle such in native ICS. I doubt the tester just had rotation turned off, though I suppose that's possible. Someone please tell me what I'm overlooking here.

Just watched it too! The ports build in is soooooo nice. I hated all the cords dangling around - the OG car mount had you plugging everything straight into the phone, so you'd have to do it everytime you got in. It was really annoying. Best designed car mount I have ever ever seen!
Do it! 
I wish I was more musically inclined, but it's great to work on the production side of film and entertainment, because I get to hire and work with such cool talented poeple

By my count, this is the 4th "Testman is down" Cycle. I think that probably ties the Dinc thread. One more of these, and it should be ready for preorder.

That it is. I'm watching 5801 phone id, 02b PR ID, etc for updates.

That does look like a very impressive car dock. My biggest fear though is ventilation. My OG Droid would get very hot when navigating, plus my car doesn't have A/C. Summer trips usually resulted in my phone getting so hot that plugged in it lost more battery. So I would run it unplugged with one hand either holding it in front of the fan or hiding it in some shade, then transitioning to plugged in when in it was cool enough.
That car dock looks like a coffin in terms of trapping in heat.

I hope they have this in the VZW store, cause it is what I am using my $50 Living social credit for.

Completely agree, except I will just be paying cash...but I'm totally cool with that. This thing is gorgeous and a must have!

I'll concede the point that there are faster primes than f/2.8 than there are zooms, but f/2.8 is f/2.8 no matter how you slice it. I think you're trying to say that fast is a relative term and relative to what else is available, f/2.8 isn't fast for certain focal lengths but is for others. To that point I will agree, but f/2.8 is still fast at any focal length, maybe just no the fastest.
