    I personally think ICS is better than GB but that of course is subjective. I prefer my OS to be vanilla too

    your current choices are Razr, Rezound, and the Nexus. All have their pros and cons and there is no clear winner between the 3. Droid 4 should also be out shortly if you need a slide out KB.

    Do a search, you can find tons of comparisons and I encourage you to go to Verizon and try all 3. What is good for 1 maybe not be good for another.

    As far as ICS goes, its a big upgrade over GB. It feels much more polished and user friendly. People say some of their apps don't work with ICS, but just about all of mine do andso long as the dev is still actively supporting the app it seems to be upgraded to support ICS pretty quickly.

    Dezymond I am right there with you. I prefer stock android and ICS IMO takes the cake. I am very, very satisfied with stock ICS.

    The Galaxy SII is not available on Verizon.

    While I tend to agree with you on this, the large majority of users could care less about this. I have a feeling the OP doesn't know what a boot loader is, if he did I feel like he wouldn't be posting a pretty general question that most of us modding type would know the deal already.

    They have the Galaxy Nexus, not the Galaxy S2. Pretty similar spec wise though. Not sure why you would not lime the S2, its probably the best non Verizon phone currently out.

    I do know what a boot loader is, and i was planning on loading ICS onto my droid 3, what are you guys saying about Locked boot loaders? I was planning on rooting my D3, it would be the first.
