There is a Geek loved rival to the Nexus phone.... This one.

327 USD... for 64gb and a faster phone.
Highly respected brand this one.

My delivery is now back to wednesday - caused by the HK warehouse not getting their finger out to get the boxes on the plane in time, and some old nags running round in a circle on tues.

Some hopes on the Glaxy Nexus front - although early days

Re: For those with the 'what phone?' questions
I usually get a new phone every year, and for the last 2 have got a Samsung Note. Had a look at the Note 3 and although it has some nice new features, they are not enough to tempt me to buy
Smartphones have hit a bit of a plateau and are all pretty much the same at the moment. I'll wait till next year

Re: For those with the 'what phone?' questions
I'm not going 4G until it comes down in price to 35 dollars for all you can phone, sms and 5gigs like my Aldi plan.... till then I'll live with 3G... Not sure I have a issue with 3G anyway, seems to work fine to me.

The 15 extra dollars a month is well worth the wait time. No 4g. No Nexus for me

I've bought a white 32GB - first ever smartphone, looking forward to retiring my old Nokia.

Shiny has arrived - hot foot from Hong Kong. Not bad for a Friday order of a new phone.
