The Galaxy Nexus does have GPS. Maybe Sir Abe just forgot to add it to the list.

Not yet available in cebu, reps say first or second week of Febuary and its smart locked but I guess they just assumed that.

I hope the version we get does not have those silly screen defects like lines, grainy screens and video playback issues.

Visited one of Smart’s stores:

– The unit alone costs around 28k+
– 2000 unlimited data plan (free handset)
– 2 years lock on period
– pre termination fee: price of the handset + admin/processing fee of 500 pesos I think

So if you got the handset for 36k, you were ripped off.

^what Smart store did you visit? I tried the one at SM North EDSA and the rep said they don’t have it yet. He doesn’t even know the plans for it or when it will be available. So weird!

Did you ask if it’s going to be locked to smart?
