oh yea one more thing, no flash yet, adobe said they are working on it. that means no website streaming videos such as justintv, ustream, any porn stream site, etc.....
I been playing around with my international version for the last couple of days now and here are my thoughts, note though, i am noob with android and smartphones
Battery isnt that great, play with it for about 4 hrs total thur out the day and had to recharge by night
GPS locating sucks, hardly works indoors, and works most of the time outdoors
recorded video at 1080p, but quality wasnt that great and at only 15fps
speaker not as loud as i thought it would be even at max
wifi speed only 500KB/sec to my server, choppy video streaming
needs better media player for mkv file, tried diceplayer but still choppy even at 720p mkv
the screen is beautiful
tethering and wifi hotspot worked great
I am on the tmobile $30 plan, get ~5mb/1mb on good area, while only get ~2mb/500kb on crowded areas like DT los angeles
I paired the phone to my car via bluetooth, but it only syncs audio. it doesnt send my phonebook to the car so that I can use car command to call "bob"
Here is the offical users guide from google, but its very limited and basic

Like i meantion, I am new to android, so a lot my issues could be my fault for lack of knowledge. for example, how the hell do you close a app? right now I have to hit the home key, then bring up the app list to swipe them out........ any one know of a good, more in depth guides for android? I am having a hard time finding a weather widget that uses gps location to automatic change locations too
In regards to GPS, I would not expect it to work well indoors when the satellites can't find your phone.
I sure hope the speaker is louder than my Incredible 2. I hate how quiet it is even with a kernel that has audio boost built in.
Ugh what is with the Nexus and GPS? I have the Nexus S 4G and the GPS is useless.
I guess I don't regret ordering IP4S especially since it ain't my money.
Eh, not if you want to prevent it from using your radio. But just using back to leave the program instead of home should end it.You don't need to close an app in Android.
It's all Samsung's fault if the GPS is le poop. I blame them. They had problems last year with most/if not all Galaxy S models, and I know they had some problems with the Charge this year. They just need a better GPS supplier/whatever the problem is.
needs better media player for mkv file, tried diceplayer but still choppy even at 720p mkv
Called the guy at Costco today. Apparently they are sending their stock back to Verizon and getting them replaced as there was some sort of problem. Well I have 90 days to play with my Razr so ehh
Ordered a Gnex last night. Looking forward to getting it...
If Verizon doesn't release this phone on Thursday I might have to choke someone out.
LOL, I'm with you. I have everything on my phone and with no land line I depend heavily on it. The other day my OG droid froze as I went to answer a call and as I result missed it. It's time.
I went to Best Buy this morning with my son looking for a mouse pad (they had none by the way) and on my way out I decided to stop by the cell phones kiosk. The young lady greeted me in a courteous manner and asked me if she could be of any help.
I merely asked: "You guys have the Galaxy Nexus yet?" At that point her looked changed, her brow dropped, the smile left, eyes stared at me in disgust, her reply was cold and sharp: "There is no release date!" and she walked away.
I couldn't help but LOL, she had probably been asked that question so many times it drove her to the point of anger. It feels like everyone involved with this phone has been trolled in some way or another.
