For the Verizon customer still undecided which smartphone to spend a current upgrade on, the carrier has just turned on the sign-up page for the Samsung GALAXY Nexus. The first Android model to have the Ice Cream Sandwich build of the OS installed, the GALAXY Nexus will cost you $299.99 with a signed 2-year contract. Although a launch date has not been made official, the carrier's Minimum Advertised Price list suggests that we will see the phone released on November 10th.
According to the web site, those who register their email address with Verizon will not only get information about the phone as it is released, but will also get a chance to be among the first to purchase the model. Just in case you have let these hot specs slip your mind, the Samsung GALAXY Nexus has a 4.65 curved Super AMOLED (and PenTile) display with 720p resolution. A dual-core 1.2GHz processor powers the action with 1GB of RAM aboard. The controversial 5MP camera on back captures video at 1080p while a 1.3MP camera allows you to take self-portraits and engage in video chat. Did we mention that Android 4.0.1 is installed?
