Panda,

Any word on the exact thickness of the Verizon LTE Nexus? It is supposed to be thicker than 8.9mm they advertised right?

That's good. That means I'll think it's super thin since I'm coming from a Thunderbolt.

There's not much out there that's thicker than the TBolt lol I think you're gonna be very happy with the Galaxy Nexus.

Actually, P3Droid posted comparison pictures between his LTE Nexus and other devices: Side by Side Comparisons GNex vs ()

 

[Premium1]

The GN looks a little bigger than the Bionic but, slightly thinner. I loved the size of the screen on the Bionic and, can't wait to get my hands on the G-nex. I have no doubt that it will be an awesome experience.

 

[CallerHoller]

I don't see any threads about this.

I thought I saw a mention that the GN would have a flash memory protocol. That you could connect thumb drives or even SD card readers to a microUSB dongle.

This sparked my interest. Being able to connect DSLR or point n shoot memory in the field.

I'm surprised that one or all the digital camera manufacturers haven't made a bluetooth or wifi protocol to connect a camera with a phone. To manage or upload hi-quality pics. I usually forget to upload camera pics by the time I get to a PC.

I have no experience with a phone this size. I wear cargo khakis daily, will I have any issue toting it in the front pocket.

The Galaxy Nexus supports USB On-The-Go, which allows it to act as a host for other USB devices, as long as those devices don't require custom drivers to function. Any standard USB memory device will be supported as long as you've got a female-to-male, Type-A-to-Micro-B USB adapter, or a dock that jacks into the Micro port on the Nexus and offers a Type-A receptacle.

If a camera allows access to stored photos as a USB-compliant memory device, then the Galaxy Nexus can access the stored pictures.

Panda, I think my question got lost in all the other questions but what other than MPs makes the GSII camera better than the G-Nex Camera?

 

[Hangfire79]

holy cow its not a xoom! LOL its just slightly larger than a tbolt!

Again, I have NO experience with a phone this size. I'm coming from an envy touch feature phone I carry on a swivel belt clip.

You can still carry this on your belt but you will need a harness and a load bearing vest to support the weight. LOL.

The nexus is pretty large compared to those phones. Check out the specs and you will see. Samsung GALAXY Nexus Visual Size Comparison
Will show the size difference.

I don't know much so bear with me.

So If I have the correct cable will I be able to connect my USB flash memory stick to this phone? If so will the phone be able to read/write files from/to this stick? So like with the correct app it could read or write pictures, or data, or music from/to the stick?

LBVs are so 90s. Chest rigs are the way to go!

Actually, for my fellow field workers / first responders / git-r-dones, I have found the Seidio Active X to be a better case than what Otterbox offers simply because it will work with my extended battery. Hope they make one for the GN as well.

Oh I know bro, no worries. Actually I have never held any of those either, lol, I'm married so I don't keep many friends and I work with a bunch of women and technologically challenged men.

LOL! Now THAT was funny! Still chuckling and have reread it 4 times.
