    Man, that Nexus 10 looks sweet. The resolution is incredible. I haven't bothered with a tablet so far, but this one definitely has my attention. Might have to be a Christmas gift to myself. :D

    Very cool. I will picking up the Nexus 10 for sure. However, while I understand Google not wanting to work with carriers to provide LTE I will not be getting the the Nexus 4 phone. I have grown too used the the LTE speeds. I'll stick to my S3 for the time being but can't wait for the Nexus 10!

    Believe it is an Exynos 5250 (Exynos 5 Dual), 1.7GHz Dual Core A15 with a Mali-T604 quad core GPU.

    Which from the specs and few benchmarks available would be about as powerful CPU and GPU wise as an AMD E-350 (or even a little faster). Which I find impressive. I'll wait for some benchmarks though.

    I wish I didn't hate big phones. The Nexus 4 looks sweet for the price.

    Nexus 4 for Christmas I think, hopefully it will cost roughly 300 euro fo the 16 gb model as it is close to that when you convert it.

    Considering the Nexus 4 if it will work well with Straight Talk in my area.

    Why would a Google flagship phone be launching with on of the worst networks available? That's like putting a Honda Civic engine in a Ferrari.
