    Interesting. Cheers

    Still running Gingerbread I see. Maybe it'll be ICS by the time the Telco's start flogging them

    If you're really after speed, try telstra nextG, bit more expensive, but damn side faster...
    LTE, 4G, whatever you want to call it - its seriously for the birds.. You will only be able to use it right in the heart of the city centres, and the moment you're 1-2kms outside, gone... waste of fking time IMO..

    The SGSII HD uses the Qualcomm Scorpion dual core found in the HTC Sensation XE, which is, to be honest, lacklustre and old news hardware. I'd rather get the Galaxy Nexus as the TI dual core benchmarks better than Samsungs Exynos dual core found in the SGSII - which is why it drives the Gnex's 1280x720 screen as smooth as it does.

    Checkout the SGSII HD on youtube. It's real choppy.

    IMO, wait for the SGSIII coming with quad cores in April/May this year. This phone will be an absolute beast!

    Man, you won't regret it.

    In other news, Kogan has dropped the price of the Galaxy Nexus to $599. What a bargain!!!

    Yeah saw that! If I wasn't a couple of hundred short this month I'd have bought one. Pretty good deal
