    Yeah, I'm going to jump from the OG Droid to the Galaxy Nexus. I can't wait to have my mind blown. It's the phone I've been targeting. It will be mine when it comes out.

        Yeah, them, droid life, droid forums, and Engadget haven't said a thing about this...

        Oh, HTC's having an event November 3rd, rumored to be announcing the HTC Rezound (formerly known as Vigor)....

        I'll be skipping the HTC device, the TBolt has terrible battery on 4G from what I hear.

        I'm still weighing the Razr vs. Nexus. I'm leaning towards Nexus but the specs on the Razr seem good, and if it gets ICS early next year it may be worth it. Then again, once we get info on picture quality and whatnot for Nexus it may be a moot point.

        I just want a new phone now damnit lol

          No way.

          I keep hearing Nov. 10.

          Why would the first phone running ICS come out almost a year from now.

            I figured it wouldn't be that long for the Nexus, but was also surprised to see that story when I did a Google search today (one of the top news stories). Of course, this was the only site that I've seen stating next year so I'm not sure where they're getting their information.

            I decided to get the Nexus the day Verizon offers it. I've been sitting on my LG Dare for way too long...it's time to upgrade. At $299 (if that's correct), it sounds like it's well worth it. I'll just hate having a data plan to pay for each month since I've gone this long without one. LOL.

              seems like all HTC phones have poor battery life and HTC Sense is a resource hog. I'd go with Nexus. Pure android, no skin. It'll get updates first. The bootloader likely to be unlocked if you're at all interested in rooting and custom roms. I'm waiting to hear about the battery life on this one too.

                My battery life on the 3D is not that bad. I can get 20-24 hours on a full charge.

                That's just my normal use through the day. A YouTube video here and there, some webpages and links, few texts and emails, lots of Twitter and FB.

                  Minor thing but GO Launcher's new sphere transition is pretty badass.

                  I like it enough that I switched my transition settings from 'random' to 'sphere' full time. Always funny when an iPhone user witnesses that eye-candy on my phone lol.

                          Guys, I have a question

                          I have a pretty terrible phone (looking to get a better one once I have the money), but is there a way to have my background change by time of day without having to root my phone?
