Eh, I don't really care if the processor is clocked at 1.5 ghz, 1.2 ghz is blazing fast as it is! I can always overclock my Nexus, I'm already rooted so it wouldn't be hard. The problem I see is that the 1.5 ghz processor will use more power, making battery life even more of an issue (an issue I have yet to really experience). The good thing is that it may just come with a larger battery (larger than the current extended battery), which might work with the CDMA amd GSM variants! Now if the Sprint Gnex comes with a better processor, I'm going to be irritated.

depends on what type of cpu they put.. 1.5ghz sounds more like snapdragon S3 to me, imo thats more like downgrade to use qualcomn chip for LTE/3G in soc.

for example, 3G version of GNote in europe equipped with Exynos 1.4ghz, in korea they put Snapdragon S3 for LTE version, ppl found out korean version is more laggy/drain battery/higher temperature so they paid full price to get europe version.

^Exactly, I'm guessing that it'll be a snapdragon.
