I got one yesterday

How's the gps work? Does it take forever to find your location or not lock at all? How's the radio do at picking up signal? These have been some of Samsungs major issues in the past.

So let me get this straight.. you got the phone at a store, yet got it from someone authorized who wouldn't be a problem with vzw sexurity at the same time, and now conveniently wont have access to the phone because you gave it to your wife, who you won't see till tomorrow afternoon??

I call a heaping pile of bull crap
 
How is the screen compared to the Rezound? Is it as crisp? Detailed? Which one does text and photos look better on? And thank you for this.
 
If this is truly your phone, you can take a picture of it in your hands with a paper that has your forum name IN FRONT of a McDonald's store(or any independent store sign).
 
I don't know why you guys care if it's real or not. If he really has one, congrats...I wish I had your contact. Thanks for the info you're providing. If he made it up, it wont affect anything I do.

Exactly. Why does it matter if he really has one or not? Either way, the fact that remains is that I don't have one, and I won't have one until they're officially available. So if he has one, good. If he doesn't, oh well. Neither do I.

Since it presumingly has no bugs if he was able to activate it maybe it will be released soon.
 
So now we've resorted to trolling each other with "I got a phone!" while we pass the time? I suppose it's just a tiny bit better than "hey I heard the new release date is 12-x-11!"

Well...that's tough. I've always been fond of HTC devices, despite the poor battery life.

I'd say the ONLY thing I like better about the Rezound is the camera and the rubberized back. The Rezound is just SO bloated. Sense 3.5 is super heavy. Before I de-bloated, there was less than 200MB RAM available after a fresh reboot. That's just not right. The Nexus is MUCH faster, and IMO, looks MUCH better. There is a learning curve coming from GB, but it's really quite intuitive.

This is the first Android device I'd consider getting for my mother, who is hooked on her iPhone. It feels like ICS keeps most of the things we geeks want while making it easier and more appealing to the average consumer.

Oh, and face unlock sucks for me. I find it to be largely hit or miss.

I encoded some 720p MKV videos to h.264, and they look gorgeous on this display.

From what I've seen/ heard, the camera is amazing on the nexus. I've seen pics taken by it and think it's better than most devices I've seen. As good as the iPhone 4s

I like the GN but the camera isn't quite as good as my Iphone 4. It's good enough for me but I'm not sure for some people.
 
weird. Last time i checked my friend's GN, her phone was already updated to 4.1.0 instead of 4.0.1 and she wroks for Samsung. Thought it would have been updated when it comes out?

They have to actually push the update. Since *officially* none have been sold yet to the consumer-class, they are probably waiting for the day it goes on sale to push it out large-scale.
 
Like you, I was in the final stages of completing a purchase for a Galaxy Nexus yesterday, then I took an arrow to the knee.
 
I'm getting one today off of someone on craigslist. Hopefully the store I take it to can activate it for me or at least just give me a microsim to try on my own.
 
I was walkin after midnight, full moon, man was I scared! They told me to meet a guy who was willing to sell me a VZW G-Nex. And by "they" I mean the Borg! Sounds crazy, I know. But get this, when I asked could a take a picture, they said their leader wouldn't approve. I asked "Well who's your leader??" Tom Cruise, they replied immediately. Then.... well you guys probably don't wanna hear the rest. Anyhoo, got the phone, Google wiped it at the request of Tom Cruise, so its no good...
