Should be 16GB, as those have been what the demo units for reviews have been. Apparently flash is not available through the market…not official…no, but I’ve been holding out almost 2 months to get this damn thing.

I’m probably not going with the Galaxy Nexus. Seems to be underwhelming so far. Looking into the LG Nitro HD.

I gave up on waiting for the Gnex. Bought an iPhone 4s last night…seems pretty nice.

perhaps someone here can help me out

ive got an htc evo 4g and for some reason i cant get into the android market at all.  
when i click the app it will attempt to go into it but then just reverts back to the previous screen.

now ive done some research on it and tried all the “solutions” they had but none work (ie. pulling the SD card then rebooting, making sure that background data is unchecked then checked again, hitting the menu button when trying to get into the program)

nothing works…anyone have any ideas?

Yeah, really anything on the G-nex is up in the air. I’m just passing the “facts” (\<- notice the quotes) on to everyone else.

And some more benchmarks for the G-nex

Note they didn’t say _ **which** _ carriers did this, though I’m sure all the big ones do.

They did…kinda. Here’s the list from Gizmodo of which phones DON’T have it.

Denials and Hardish Proof

```
All Verizon phones
All Nokia handsets
All Windows Phones
All Vodafone Phones
All O2 Phones
Google Nexus phones (Google Nexus One, Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus)
Original Xoom

```

“Hard-ish proof” may not be good enough … and I heard a rumor that CIQ’s servers had some Verizon IP’s on it. Anyone with a rooted Droid ever specifically look for it? It won’t show unless you’re rooted.

Here is an app that supposedly can detect if Carrier IQ is installed. It is fresh from the womb, so it may not be 100%. My rooted OG Droid shows no signs of it.
