[aklug] Re: recommendation for Android phone

Verizon already stated they're passing on the Galaxy S line. The rumor is they're getting a Verizon version of the next Nexus phone - the Nexus Prime - also rumored that the Verizon variant will be called the Droid Prime. It should easily be the most powerful phone on the market when it comes out (dual core 1.5ghz). I recently upgraded to a Nexus S from my rock solid Nexus One, but I just might upgrade again for the Prime.

On Verizon I think it would be wise to hold out for October to see what shakes out...
