Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

[The_Chief]

Oh, but to be a developer in that room right now.... techgasms all over the place!

 

[Stigy]

Knew it - each developer is going to get a brand new Galaxy Nexus (with preview 4.1), a Nexus 7 and a Nexus Q.

Ugh that's ridiculous - I wish I could be there.

The note just destroyed my nexus on hspa by a wide margine at my job. Pretty sad and the nexus was on 4g

 

[Stigy]

FYI Chrome, Earth, Books, Maps and YouTube all have updates!

Go do them!

 

[Unforgiven]

Wow, did the attendees score some Swag, all three current Nexus devices.

 

[Stigy]

Couldn't have said it any better.

I wonder how one gets an invite to that...

 

[ajdroidx]

Had an idea.
Buy the HSPA+ version of the nexus and just shove a pay as you go sim card in it. That is, if that is possible. Doing some research to see if the GSM version is gimped like the CDMA one is.

Blues network seems to work better where I am located then big reds.

$900 / ticket and they sold out in about 15 seconds.

The GSM version from the Google Play store is totally updated by Google. When code hits AOSP (I am 99% sure) your phone gets the update.

Hot damn! Can I enter to win, too? I'd love another Nexus!!!!! I could sell it and get a Nexus 7!!

I played around with a t-mobile samsung galaxy s3 for a few moments. It was not activated. It had a SD card slot! +1. The back cover is slightly better then the nexus. It was pretty smooth scrolling. The screen was pretty nice. Fit good in my hand. A bit wider then the nexus and thinner. They where willing to sell it to me flat out for 630 bucks plus tax.

I thought about it for a moment, asking if it was a world phone and thus had CDMA on it and if I could unlock and flash it to verizon. I was told I would be stuck on their 2g network. She may have had a point but I thought all carriers where getting the same device, hardware wise.

I'll send 3vil the nexus and keep the rest of the goodies!!!

Yeah.
Just worried about the radio. If the GSM HSPA+ version has the same issues, then its not worth it.

Hands down the best Keynote presentation I've ever had the pleasure of watching via livestreaming. I am still not able to process all of what I took in today. My socks are completely blown. The Nexus 7 will be my first tablet and I cannot wait.

Oh dear god, haha. That's insane.

 

[The_Chief]

Well, all this new Google+ stuff has me fired up to use it more... so back on G+ I go!

 

[breadnatty08]

Looks like I'll give away my Flyer and pick up this Nexus 7 hands down.

 

[The_Chief]

Ah ha! This explains that odd smell in New Jersey!

So my wife turned me down on the new Nexus 7.

That's too bad. I still have clearance for two, one for me and one for Evan. I don't already have a tab though.

Anti:



Can you sell something or deliver pizza for a week to get the money? Maybe then (along with some nice flowers for her) she'll say YES...

 

[Copacetic]

Whoa, just checked play store, it updated 15 apps!
