    This first of many sacrifices we will make for our significant others. I had to buy a iPhone for my wife. It hurt. I'm sure you already found the forums for your new phone so enjoy. Now you can tweek her phone too.

    Enjoy the battery life! Also, I'm sure there are some good ics roms to hold you over. Maybe you can get a nexus next upgrade :-D

    You realize you could SELL your "free" Maxx for almost enough to buy your nexus...

    I'm not married yet (recently engaged though) and so far my saccrifices have been
    1) go from a really high paying job and cheap rent to $5/hr less and 3x rent cost to move closer
    2) take another $7/hr pay cut and a tad higher rent.
    3) move far away from friends and family I actually care about.
    4) gotten flack from her mother for wanting to move a little farther away from them to save a lot of money on rent/gas... I don't see how that's her decision, but I guess I better get used to... "The Mother-In-Law"

    Sacrifices she has made: 0

    Andrew, that doesn't sound good to me that you are the one being asked to make all the sacrifices, especially about you having to move far away from your family. Maybe more frank discussions are in order before you tie the knot?

    As for the MIL, again, you and your fiancee need to discuss her influence in your decisions. You and your fiancee need to be on the same page BEFORE you get married that your fiancee needs to speak to her mother if her mother is trying to dictate your life decisions. If your fiancee is not willing to do that, that is a huge red flag. It's her place to speak to her mother about this, but she does need to be on board and willing to do it.

    I would have done the same if BOGOF were available when I needed a new phone. The Maxx is a great phone. I am jealous of the battery life. When I am actually using my GNex as a phone making lots of voice calls, I can barely get 8 hours out of a full battery charge.

    I had to buy one for my mother. I hate to admit it, but it was the right decision since Siri is easy for her to use to send text messages. I can't get the voice actions on my GNex to initiate a text message properly. When I say "text to" or "send text to" followed by my contact's name, my contact's name appears in the "message" field instead of the "to" field.

    Siri works properly out of the box for sending text messages by speaking them and without that, my mom would never be able to text her grand kids.

    Voice Actions work perfectly for texting someone.

    I don't know why it won't work right for me. Others have said they have the same problem. I will try again to see if I can figure it out.

    I have found that is seems to go nuts in the texting app. Reboot or battery pull always clears it up.
