I'm lost in the Android jungle...

Greetings from Sweden all.

I have quite a problem and it's about Android. Specifically I don't know much about it and I'm thinking about getting an Android phone. I've been using an iPhone 4 for the last 2 years and it have served me well but I'm really considering an Android since I've ordered a Pebble smartwatch and... mainly I getting Google Glass, whenever that comes out.

I doubt Google Glass will work with iPhone (but who knows maybe it does) so I want to get into the whole Android jungle and open my mind a bit. The problem is going from the iPhone, which has one phone, the latest iPhone. To just a bunch of different Android phones with different tasty versions of Android and then, on top of that, different skins just make my head hurts.

I'm really considering the Galaxy SIII at the moment but when I look at the reviews here at The Verge there are a lot of phones with really high ratings. Most of the phones seems similar but the real question is, which one do I choose?

So far I'm interested in the Galaxy Nexus, the One X and the Galaxy SIII. I'm waiting to decide until Apple have their press conference and announce the next iPhone in September (allegedly) and if that thing don't tickle my fancy I'll go for an Android. So, well, which one would you recommend?

As for usage I use my iPhone for listening to podcasts at work (a lot), RSS-feeds, surfing the web, reading mail, Facebook and some gaming.
