Don't wanna sound pushy but....is there a chance we will see this.

Heard about this today and definitely caught my eye. Still at least a year from a factory device but I did see that they will be planning on releasing this on the nexus and seeing as the s3 is one of the largest selling devices I can see the international version receiving this and hopefully our device
Will be keeping an eye on the development of this for sure.

Is already going to be released for the galaxy nexus and supposedly it will be available for any equivalent or better android phone at side point. Even if it isn't official I can see a developer porting this.

I'm sure we'll eventually be seeing it on the SIII

I would love to see this. Being able to dual boot Ubuntu and Android would be killer.

Yep, agree!! This would be awesome!

The interface seems really confusing and not very intuitive to me. Too many hidden docks.

Definitely giving this a try as soon as it's available on the gs3. I think once you get used to it you would never want to switch back. Looks like it makes great use of the screen.

Looks amazing, but seems sort of redundant. Why not just team with Google and implement this as a redesign for Android? Or implement it in a similar fashion to CM10.

Here is a more in depth look which shows you some flaws which were pointed out on another forum
"Seriously, no one wants to do that kind of multi-directional swipe. That ignores the fact that the guy demonstrating can't read the text under his finger. And if he used his left hand he wouldn't be able to see the icon."

Real sweet idea for an app (nfc)

Anyone remember tamigotchi's from back in the day? And then ones that could link together to battle?
I thought it would be pretty cool to make an app similar to that and use NFC as a means to battle them.
Anyone else think thats a cool idea?
I was looking for a tomigatchi but this sounds better. Let's do it!

Battling would be like Digimon, lol. I had both Tamagotchi and Digimon as a kid.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Love the idea
but I'm not sure NFC works like that?
I doubt you'd want to have your phones back to back all the time. That wouldn't be very fun. Best would be to use NFC to initiate a Bluetooth pair or WiFi connection.
Even if you just created an online game with user names to search for and fight I think some people would bite.

I know there was a Tamagotchi app created a long time ago on XDA. I'd like to see what happened with that, but if you start something up like this then I'll definitely hop on this.

Since we are all sharing stories. I purchased a used 3g last year to see what the big deal was. I spent more than 2 hours trying to jailbreak the crap vecause itunes wouldnt recognize the packages. Once i got it jailbroken i tried unlockinh it and it broke the jailbreak which lead me to start back at stock iphone. I did finally get it to find out the came firmware or hardware had an issue. Ended up scrapping it. I love android

both are simple for me. All i had to do was the read and follow the tutorial for the device (iphone/ipod touch).
Well after I jailbroke it I found that easy but not knowing cause I've never messed with an iPhone found it more difficult to handle and much easier to flash or anything else themes and stuff

True, but I think there is enough in the android market to at least warrant an update when there is a major o/s upgrade. Paid for it 2 years ago, on Froyo. GB, ICS, JB, KLP.....and he still is promising an update!

You can get them for free/$50/$100 if you don't buy the newest one (contract, of course). Pretty much everyone I know who has a smartphone.... iPhone.

Well, this would mean that Key Lime is never going to be a thing. Next up would be a dessert/treat that starts with an "L"
Key Lime Pie was actually KitKat which isn't 5.0, but 4.4
Ultimately I don't think it really affects us at all, rumors were just off slightly.

I bet a lot of devs are understandably crying themselves to sleep right now. I know a release date is probably a long ways off but most roms haven't even caught up to 4.3 yet and without a doubt this merge is going to be a lot more substantial (stressful) than the last. :/

Yeah, I feel like it's somewhat of a sell-out as well. Google seems to be going in an unpleasant (and a bit Apple-ish at times) direction with Android, and it's kind of worrying me. Things such as doing away with the tablet UI, dumbing down the Map app, and the Gmail app forcing one to use the various categories, etc. etc. etc., all present confusing and unpleasant writing on the wall for the future of Android.
