A bird named droid-life.com :icon_eek: haha

Droid-life a big bird!
I was just thinking though... Where is Julian assange when you need him. We need an Android Wikileaks! xD

So this is the best sense I could make of the Nexus cluster-crapper that is happening right now... basically I ordered the links based on 2 the most debated specs, screen size and processor...

I am going to split this into two different phones, as that is the new leading theory:

Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Great job Truss. Good thing most phones don't look like the Nexus in terms of leaks etc.

Yes, but has anyone actually confirmed it's Nov 3rd, 2011?

 

[Trusstopher]

Haha... is it already time for those jokes again?

 

[jcardona1]

Another rumor. This one says ICS and Nexus are delayed due to patent issues

And.... 2 pictures taken by the nexus found on Picasa: Nexus Prime: Photos Suggest Samsung Galaxy Nexus as Official Name [EXCLUSIVE]

despite the sooner logo, you have the absolute best signature I've ever seen.

EXIF data is easy to fake though, so still hard to say for sure.

 

[ilikemoneygreen]

Lol, look at these. Its a pretty good name confirmation...... DROID RAZR, HTC Vigor,

 

[ilikemoneygreen]

I had to play with picasa after i saw the nexus name leak. While it may be easy to create make this up, these photos were create before the picasa thing was splashed across the the web news...

https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/view?q=vigor&psc=G&filter=1&camera=vigor

 

[Trusstopher]

The only reason I think this may have some validity is because they are both supposedly Google employees and shortly after this story went up, the pics went away.
