This is the Nexus S -- Engadget

Whatcha think? I'm not a big fan of the disappearing capacitive buttons.

Check out the pics, especially 2 of 6. That thing is thick. Wonder why? I can think of a few reasons:

Sliding keyboard
Bigger heatsink for dual core Hummingbird
Dual mode CDMA/GSM pentaband radio

there has to be a reason it's so much thicker than the Vibrant or other Galaxy S.

Hoping for duel mode and room for the humming bird duel. That would be A OK.

i was wondering why it look so thick myself. but unless we get some hard evident spec....i guess this is a good change for those that thought the galaxy s phones were too light.

This could be interesting. I looks possible for it to have a sliding keyboard due to the front and back half not being completely flush and seamless but then again it could just be for looks.

What I think would be an interesting concept (if it does have both cdma and gsm capabilities) is if there was some deal created with bestbuy/Google/Samsung and all of the US carriers to have it in all varieties so that anybody with any carrier could go in and get one. If that ever happened, I would not mind paying full price for one of those babies haha. This is extremely unlikely but a guy can dream, right? haha

I just hope this or the Incredible HD come to Verizon real soon.

I like it..and am certainly interested in it but, I'm having a hard time justifying why it really exists over any other Galaxy S device of similar styling.

I really like the styling on it.... will*be interesting to see what all the specs really are. A slide out keyboard would be nice.
