Welcome to the wonderful world of Android Wanous

Get a good feel for the Nexus 7 and then pick up the new LG Nexus I've been hearing rumors about. ( I will admit I haven't heard much other than it's gonna be awesome but so is the Rzr HD, although I'm still enjoying my S3) Maybe I will finally be able to settle down with a phone for more than 6 months!! I have an upgrade coming in Jan but I will most likely use that for Shan's phone....we will see!!

Unless your on AT&T and the only person I know of that is complained the whole time down in FL about it I'm sure a couple people are, but hopefully he makes a change and gets some LTE love

We've already gotten all of our advertising and merchandising crap for the RAZR HD. Looks pretty cool but I must admit I'm more excited for surface and windows 8. My Xyboard has turned me off from Motorola even after it got the official ICS update. We'll see how the HD is in about a week.

Yea I have to admit, compared to the Consumer Release I played with back in the spring/summer and the Release Preview I played with in early summer/almost fall I wasn't a fan. But at the time my monitor wasn't touch screen, very few of the apps worked, and it was pretty glitchy. That being said the newer of the two worked a lot better, but the apps were still iffy (weather, photos and chat stuff) and I didn't like having to have a windows id that hasn't been used in the past 5 years as my only form of logging into the comp.

Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut with that out of the way......I played with a new HP 14" Touch screen we got in earlier on Friday and for them to make it as quick and snappy as it is on just an ULV i5 I was very impressed!! I really didn't like how windows 7 ran on the slower ULV i5 cpu, even the 3rd gens seem a bit pokey to me. This new one seems pretty sweet and factor in that everything will be running that, the new surface tablet(which looks awesome) and the phones that have been great remarks from big names like HTC, Samsung and a couple others they might actually have something great on their hands We shall wait until the 26th to see.

and tevi, what the hell in the history of my talking crap about the iphone makes you think i would get one? hahah ! i usually upgrade, not downgrade, my electronics. i'm still using my nexus, and will prob upgrade to the upcoming Droid Incredible X or the RAZR HD.
WTF do you mean STILL using your nexus? You moved from the Nexus, to the S3, back to the phone I had that I told you I loved....the Rezound lmao.

+1 to not using something that came out in the spring of 2011 (4" screen with LTE and a 1410 MaH battery)

most people read that comment 2 posts up as this:

"The problem is nothing specific to genes: numerous sociologists have
complained about a deep disconnect between developing sociological explanations
and conducting sociological research (e.g., Coleman 1986; Hedstro
¨m and Swedberg 1998; Abbott 2001). Holland (1986) argues that researchers
should concentrate on understanding the various effects of
particular causes—rather than identifying the various causes of particular
outcomes—precisely because questions regarding the former are more
clearly posed and more easily approached from statistical vantage. Explanation,
however, is as much about arranging causes as about identifying
them, figuring out the syntax of an account that allows causes of different
ontologies and temporalities to fit together."

I kept the rezound for 2 weeks, and when JB came out officially for the Nexus, I picked that back up and have been using that since. the LG nexus doesnt offer much of an upgrade physically, I am holding off for something like the Optimus G or the Droid Incredible X.

Oh ok, I wasn't sure LOL. I just remember you said you had gotten the Rezound and I assumed you sold the Nexus on CL. I still have mine, going to wipe it back to stock and get 350 bucks for it at Bestbuy.....now if I only had something I needed
