If you happen to be the owner of a GSM/HSPA Galaxy Nexus or Nexus S, you might want to keep your eye out for an update. According to reports, Android 4.1.2 has begun rolling out to the “yakju” Galaxy Nexus and the “soju” Nexus S. This isn’t surprising since Google posted the factory images just a few days ago and it’s only been about a week since Nexus 7 owners received the update. .

Reports are coming in that Motorola has begun sending out emails to members of the Motorola Feedback Network, inviting them to take part in an upcoming soak test for the Bionic.

I’m expecting a full onslaught of marketing to accompany these devices as Verizon seems partial to the RAZR line. The next iteration of the RAZR line will feature similar specs, with the only distinguishable advantage being the larger battery and storage available in the RAZR MAXX HD (which I find lame of Motorola).
Looks like T-Mobile just found itself its next best seller. T-Mobile has announced that the Samsung Galaxy Note II will be available on their network this fall. “This Fall” seems to be the new launch date for everything, but at least we know it’s not far off (couple weeks). T-Mobile hasn’t revealed pricing, but we know they will be carrying both the Titanium Gray and Marble White color options, each of which will sport:
