The Samsung Galaxy Nexus is about to be launched by Wind Mobile and Mobilicity. I believe that we are about a week away. Wind may have them sooner. The Galaxy Nexus is such a beautiful cell phone sporting a: gorgeous 4.65" Super AMOLED touchscreen, a dual core 1.2 MHz processor giving out blazing speeds. Wind Mobile say soon on their website. Mobilicity has nothing listed their site. So it looks like that Mobilicity will get theirs later than Wind Mobile. One of the best features of this device is the fact this Samsung Galaxy Nexus comes factory unlocked! Which means that if you are travelling abroad and would like to avoid horrendous roaming rates, you can now buy a SIM card for the local carrier their and use it without any unlocking required. This is a Google feature as all Google Nexus's came unlocked to the consumer.
What is Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS)?
Ice Cream Sandwich is Google's latest rendition of the Android OS. This is the latest technology for Android devices. The precious Nexus, the Google Nexus S is upgrade-able to the new Ice Cream Sandwich.

LTE (or commonly known as 4G) can reach peak download speeds between 100 – 150 Mbps (Megabits per second), which is damn fast and is now fast enough to compete with home internet services via Rogers cable or Bell Simpatico. Since Wind offers unlimited bandwidth, many customers may opt-out to get the wireless data sticks instead. This is a big leap for wireless services in Canada.
