Yesterday we showed you the first part of our favorite Panda’s (@black_man_x) latest riddle-poem (released though @tfleming123) which revealed the release date for the DROID/Nexus Prime on Verizon Wireless. Right now the speculation is November 3rd. The rest of the poem has now been released, and it reveals that the Nexus Prime will have a keyboard or there will be a variant with a keyboard.
First, lets recap what was already released:
While things that go bump in the night, surely give you a fright, It’s all in good fun as I share treats and panda fun. So Instead of filling your belly with candies, jellies and other hollows eve fare, perhaps your palate will cast a ballot, for an ice cream sandwich instead. With an internal date now set and LTE a sure bet Those that get Tim Cook’s new pet will be filled with green eyed regret. But wait you cry for what date can you buy? This the panda did shall share…Fore on the date Bruce Wayne’s true father did die; you shall in fact be able to buy in stores of red and black.
Now, here is the dramatic ending:
But those who pay other masters don’t fret, over exclusive deals and bets. For in many other favors you will get your treat be they GSM or wimax radios inside, the nexus brand will ride world wide. But as he lays in the corner with a Beer and a boner the Panda said with a sigh…Be it a Droid or Nexus branded new toy, with dual cores “hd” screens, fancy new widgets and more….The one with the keyboard is what I enjoy”
The GSM and WiMAX radios, dual-core, HD screen, and fancy new widgets aren’t surprising, but the mention of a keyboard certainly is. He seems to imply that they will offer both a keyboard and a keyboardless version, but assuming that’s the case, it’s not clear if all carriers will offer both, or one of the carriers will have the keyboarded version as an exclusive. If it’s an exclusive to one carrier, would they still carry the other version?
Do you remember the AT&T Samsung slider that appeared in July? At that time it was believed to be a Galaxy S II variant. It was never mentioned at last month’s Samsung event, and it has been in hiding since. Could this device actually be a Nexus Prime variant? We were never made aware that it packed an HD screen, but the poem doesn’t state that both versions have an HD screen.
Then there is the Samsung Stratosphere, which is expected to land October 6th on Verizon. I don’t think it’s actually a Nexus device, but why would another Samsung slider show up on Verizon in early November? Hang on because this is going to be a wild ride.
