Next Nook will be... The Galaxy Tab 4 - Nook HD, HD+ General

http://www.cnet.com/news/samsung-barnes-noble-team-up-on-tablet-design/
Yep... It's just going to be a Galaxy Tab with Nook software on it. That's about it.
Anyone else's heart sink when seeing this article? I loved the design choices that B&N have chosen for the Nook. All unique and elegant in my opinion. Samsung's designs are all so ugly, boring and ... Just... Ugh!

I knew they were going away from hardware, I just wish they picked a better partner to go with. I'm with you on the looks. Samsung's do not look good at all.

I have gone to the darkside

Yes, after trying to resist, I caved and bought an iPad 2.
I simply needed it for a couple of essentials. Full iCal support and a couple of apps to use with pro-tools at work. One being V-control the other air display.
But I am keeping my vibrant.
I must say, that I find iOS definitely lacking in various areas.
Most notably no widgets. I prefer the Android app draw and personal window customization, and I really don't like the iPad contacts app.
Hey, I have an iPod, but I'm not ashamed. I like it for the battery life. I will always love my phone more though.

No need to feel ashamed. They're great devices. I find that Android and iOS really go hand in hand and compliment each other very well.
They are good retail units, but little to no customization really. That and after costs............ too bad you couldn't wait until EE transformer by asus that is the one........ good price point and best of all worlds
Ipad 2 is the only device i would be willing to buy from Apple.

Yeah, iPod and iPad are the only products worth buying from Apple.
No shame in buying apple. They make damn good products.
I bought one to. Does anyone kno how to jailbreak the ipad 2? Does apple have a xda like community/forum?

No jailbreak for the iPad 2 4.3.1, yet...not sure what they did to secure it beyond the iPhone 4, but they did. Only a matter of time before we get our homebrew on.

iphone-developers.com is xda's sister site for apple stuff.
There's nothing wrong with owning Apple products, i have 3 iPods (diff. Gens) and a iPad 2
No shame in it, they make good stuff just not the BEST stuff.
Apple is good for a couple things. Secure info, speed and memory when using large apps. Other than that they are money hungry fools who can't share their developement to make them better

I got their new ipod nano for as a gift and i like it a lot. but then again I have always liked their ipod line. I probably wouldn't get any other apple product unless it was reallyyyy cheap or free. I really wished a PC manufacturer could design a laptop using the aluminum unibody that the macbook pro uses cause its stunning.

if there's one thing i'm jealous about Macbooks are their designs, god they shine so bright in the sun whereas im with my black HP laptop.. it doesnt shine
Actually, you were in the dark side the whole time. There aren't any white, pretty-looking things in Android.

So ones u get your galaxy nexus what well u use your nexus s for

Keep it for a strictly gaming device testing device rooting device
What will u use your nexus s for when u upgrade
Better check your thread title again. Not very suggestive .
I'll probably hand it to over to my wife, or sell it. I'll see when I get to it.
I'd probably install a remedial spelling and grammar instructional tool on the Nexus S.
Why would you even keep it? I'll sell it. The wife has a GSII so she wouldn't want it.

hahahaha...nice
Here is a better title:
"Got a Galaxy Nexus? What to do with old Nexus S?"
Or, if you wanted to fix your original:
"Once you get your galaxy nexus, what will you use your nexus s for?"
Not that hard...
Deciding what to do with your old phone is the least of your problems.

So I'm not the only one who thought of this. I have my old Nexus One in a cabinet and intentionally gave it a bad rom flash so it just replays the nexus boot animation forever. It's quite awesome to me and the S will join it when I get my galaxy nexus.

Long live the NX! This baby will never leave me it is too amazing to toss the Galaxy Nexus got nothing on it!
My opinion is greatly influenced by the fact that I cannot afford the Galaxy Nexus after just buying the Nexus S and denial. (I would totally ditch the NX for GN and keep the Nexus as a trophy on my wall for the "memories" we share).
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I got to play with a Galaxy Nexus for the first time a few days ago, and I have to say I think I prefer to keep my Nexus S. I don't really need dual-core power, and although the phone isn't strictly speaking too big for me, I found the form factor uncomfortable to hold. I'm also still not really sold on the software buttons; they have potential but they just seem clumsy at the moment.
Granted, the screen is gorgeous, I like the notification LED, and there are times I feel tempted to switch for the extra RAM alone, but all things considered I honestly believe the NS is a superior everyday device. In any case, for the price tag the GN would really have to wow me, and it just didn't.
If I were buying a new phone today and had the GN and NS side by side, I'd be torn. Since I already have the NS though, I just don't feel compelled to switch. Maybe once the price comes down a bit, the software goes through a couple upgrades and they release a nice big extended battery to fatten it up a bit in the palm.
I'll probably give my Nexus S to my cousin, who's rocking a blackberry at the moment.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Will hand it to my cousin bro. I am not one bit emotional with material stuff.
I sell it to my younger brother or keep it as a backup.
EDIT: I'm not gonna get the GNex, but I'll wait for the next Google phone. It probably has quad-core CPU or something. I just don't have enough money for it.
Please enter a valid message
Either give it to my mom if she wants it, keep it or sell it back to best buy buy back program & get the galaxy nexus even cheaper!!

I'm a sucker for white devices when I have them in white lol.
Bought the ivory cover from Samsung for the tab and looks great with it, imagine a white tab in it
Won't let go of my 10.1 tab but might check the improved Asus one later this year aswell.
They have this at best buy here in the US.

I did just that. When I was out yesterday exchanging my 10.1 note 16gb for 32gb I upgraded my droid x2 for a galaxy SIII just to further support Samsung. It was on a whim and am by no means a "fanboy", hell I'm in my mid 40's! Apple is getting out of control. I know one thing. I was talking to my android phone and having it respond long before Siri was born.

Apples attempt to stop innovation with litigation... Boooo.

u right, man !
lucky apple doesn't have any "FART" sound on its ringtones / notification sound.
Otherwise, you might as well create another sound for your fart, before apple invite you to go court.

Development is still a little slow but it is definitely picking up(still early) As far as hardware I couldn't be happier. It is my first tablet but by far the best bang for your buck. It will be a while before it is obsolete. Would recommend it for sure.

I picked up this tablet to replace my Asus tf300. What I love about this tablet is the fluidness of the tablet. You wouldn't be disappointed with this purchase.

Best tablet I've ever owned. The screen is amazing and the fluidness is perfect. I can't help but think that all the issues I had with the first have been fixed on the second. As long as u don't get a defective one I can't see how you could go wrong or be unhappy with this purchase.

I was using a free iPad 3rd Gen table for surfing and was extremely unhappy with it, especially since I could not find a decent browser that would work given the iOS operating system. I am happy with my purchase of the N7 and would recommend it for any one who owns an Android phone who is looking for a tablet,

The hardware is amazing.
It's way underpriced and I love it :victory:
Spent the whole day playing with it today after buying it from a local Gamestop. It's great. Enjoying it much more than the previous Nexus 7. The screen is beautiful and the dual speakers are a breath of fresh air compared to the tinny sound of the mono speaker we had previously.
