So as I was looking for new phone release dates this morning, I came across this little guy. Now if these dates hold true, then the Samsung Charge that has my wife's eye will come out in April. May can be a huge 4G LTE month!

I'm really considering upgrading my Droid1 to either the Samsung Droid Charge(Stealth) or the Motorola Droid Bionic.
Biggest Pro's for each
Bionic: Dual Core
Charge: Super Amoled Plus Screen
Biggest Cons
Bionic: 0.3mp Front Facing Camera (vs. 1.3mp of Charge)
Charge: Samsung known for not getting updates out in a timely manner.
Found a comparison chart also between the Thunderbolt, Bionic, Xperia Play, and Charge(Stealth)

I think I may end up going with the Bionic because in daily use, I will be using the dual cores more than the FFC, and would prefer a phone that performs the operations better that one with a better front camera. My wife will most likely go with the Charge, unless I can convince her otherwise...

Future Vision of Corning's Gorilla Glass in Video
This isn't directly Android related, but most of us use this product in our Androids, and the video was just too amazingly cool not to it share with you guys. In fact, this video is one of the most viewed corporate videos on youtube, with over 9 Million hits so far. What's particularly cool about this, is that although the video is really a commercial for future Gorilla Glass products, it is obvious that this could also be the future of the Android OS for multiple products and services. I'd be willing to bet that this is precisely the direction that Google intends to take Android. What do you guys think?
