Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

Funnily enough, Asus announced a new Prime today to launch in Q2. *rolls eyes*
But, despite my earlier griping (esp since I had to open my current Prime to test it out), I may end up keeping it if it passes my wireless tests. I think it's overkill that all the new tablets are now going to come with 1920x1200 res screens when 1) it's hard enough to find good 720p-supported android apps for Nexus and Rezound as it is [can't believe my Rezound dropped to $199 already...] and 2) I somehow doubt the Tegra3 can handle that too smoothly. I am curious about the upcoming Nexus tablet, though...

i am getting a good refund check form school this semester and i think i am saving for that nexus tablet and retire my aging but still amazing og wifi xoom

You know, I kind of feel bad, but I am fully neglecting my Iconia now that I got my GNex. Just seems like the smoothness of my phone outweighs the bigger size of the tablet. Anyone else share this thought? Perhaps once ICS is available for the tablet that will change.

i was like that with my xoom untill i switched my xoom over to ICS but i can say that the tablet still has functions that my phone cant do for school

Trying to find a cheap (sub $100) Android tablet to pick up to use as a replacement for all my remotes. Was hoping to grab a Touchpad during all the fire sales but no go.

Verizon FiOs app, XBMC app and then just have some ebook apps on there would be perfect.

if that is all you wanna use it for look at the Viewsonic G pad but you will have to root it in able to get the functionality

Just got the TPU case how do I know if it's the v2? My volume down button seems too easy to press not the volume up though. Cool case what a steal for the dough!

If you paid only $5 for it then its definitely a rev 1. Otherwise I have no idea how you'd tell the difference.

I got an e-mail on Friday saying my replacement case was shipping out - a revision 3.

It was like $11.75 and stated it was *revision 2* just wondering thanks. So I think I still might cut out the volume rocker rubber area, the volume down is too easy to push and doesn't "click" like the volume up does with the case on.
