well if you look at AnandTech’s analysis its calculated better than the galaxy s 2 but not as good as the OG Droid, still it should be interesting in how the screen looks real world. Im fine with pentile display as long as it does not look like shit like it does on the bionic or even the incredible ---

Data is not working as of right now in Tonawanda. I had 4g signal last night, but not every app and everything else just says network can’t be reached. Although the speed was nice for the time we had it! ![http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/317731_10150417501531253_545991252_10711752_137014183_n.jpg](http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/317731_10150417501531253_545991252_10711752_137014183_n.jpg) ---

Hmm HTC Rezound or the Galaxy Nexus? The Rezound has better specs all the way around and I’m sure will get ICS in the coming months. The Galaxy Nexus looks like it will be released 11/21, with the Rezound out the 14th. ---

The Galaxy Nexus looks like it will be released 11/21, with the Rezound out the 14th. do you really thing the extra 300mhz is going to make that much of a difference between the two? because that and the camera is the only thing that is better than the nexus. please dont say that a micro SDcard is a deciding factor either, I hate when people say that ---

I dropped the ball on the bionic yesterday. Only thing I dislike is the screen, but other than that I’m extremely happy with it. I came from the og Droid and wanted to rip my hair out every time I used it because of how much it lagged. ---

I came from the **og Droid and wanted to rip my hair out every time I used it because of how much it lagged**. That’s where i’m at now. I want to throw mine across the room because of how bad it lags. Waiting for the Razr to come out and see how that looks. My only concern is that they will take away my unlimited data package once i renew my contract. ---

I think they are available in stores tomorrow or something. RAZR is a way better option than bionic. ---
