Apple to sue Google for copying their lack of phone reception functionality?
I have to say that ICS is now poor by both design and application now. The resource requirements are too heavy and it has bugs.
It has become like the earlier MS Windows version including XP where a million services you never wanted are running and using your CPU, battery and phone/data account.
340mb RAM, fast processor and decent graphics card required. A new open source project could come up with a better solution but they won't beat Google because of all the integrated solutions. Google offer too much for another open source project to be as successful in this space. That is bad for us because if Google want a bloated system with lots of potential for issues then that is what we get.

I've updated my GN to 4.0.4 firmware, but I still use it without any problems... yeah, now it's a bit slow in switching from Wi-Fi to EDGE, so when I get out of Wi-Fi zone, it takes a couple of minutes to get back online, for example, in GTalk.

This is ridiculous. Aren't all Android updates supposed to be tested and guanrenteed to work on the Nexus devices before being released? The Google phones get the fastest and most frequent updates, and hence the best chance of getting screwed up. First thee was the yellow tint in the Nexus S , now the signal-dropping issue. Come on, Google! I would pick a device that's running an outdated but stable OS over being constantly pushed to some crappy updates that cause nothing but problems. Is that what you called "the pure Androud experience"?

Better go with WP Mango. All the features you need on a sleek and modern UI. Android is so old and useless. Putting quad-core CPU just so you can desperately swipe to your 7! desktops to look for an app...

:)) android... SO lame. A pimped up, low feature Symbian... My 3 years old Symbian device is more stable than all those android jokes with all those once a month updates... Just like cheap chinese merchandise. One cheap and low quality product after another. Changing the icons from previous versions and renaming it. What an update! :P :))

Galaxy Nexus owner. After upgrading to 4.0.4 I started losing 3G connection and network signal. I thought it was the phone but apparently not.

ICS is a buginfested disaster!
Why did Google/Samsung pull 4.0.3 from Nexus, and why is Samsung having problems with ICS 4.0.3 for their latest tablets?
S2 use 4.0.3, and it also have problems with overheating and battery draining faster than the charger can charge the battery when browsing the web watching flash-movies while charging, and S2 with ICS is often losing network connections, and games like "Real Racing 2" are unplayable...!
Batterydrain is gigantic when phone/screen is used, but is ok in standby/sleep, but obviously that is because to much go to sleep while ICS is on standby!
