Super AMOLED HD display, dual-core processors, future ready NFC enabled. and me as the soon-to-be owner of THE Samsung Galaxy Nexus. I paid Radio Shack a visit, had a chat, and I found out I can get $118 applied to the purchase of the Galaxy Nexus by trading in my Samsung Droid Charge, so that reduces how much more I will have to pay for the Gnex. I am sooo psycked! ! ! Ice Cream Sandwhich is sooo different from current Android, I will have to watch some YouTube tutorial vids to become more acquanted with all the features & how-to's.

Very jelly 😛

Hopefully ICS comes out for the GS2 sooner rather than later. I may just try rooting the phone to get it if I have to.

Yeah, I can't wait. I might not get it the 10th when it comes out out, cause I have both work & school that day. So probably friday the 11th, in the afternoon is when I will get it. It will feel sooo cool to have a Nexus phone, AND LTE!!!

LTE is cool, HSPA+ is fast enough for me though.

I tend to agree with you on this, this phone looks absolutely sweet. And the fact that if it does come to Verizon I keep reading that Verizon is not going to touch the OS (Of course we all know that's going to change) to give us a true ICS experience

When I was @ Radio Shack I held a phone wuth a 4.5in screen, that wasn't too bad, FNezus is only. .15 bigger. It's weight us actually less than the Droid Charge.

So you're upgrade is already due and you don't need to have verizon change it at all.

Really. It's not a true 1280x720 because it's a Pentile layout like the Galaxy S ONE.

The "PLUS" designation is the traditional RGB layout.

"We can display 16 million colors, and white isn't one of them!"

Shame on Samsung and their Super AMOLED horse dung!
