Yeah I appreciate the response, you’ve helped to clarify and it makes sense now but I just wanted to respond w/ some of the complications the G+ circle can bring. Its not as simple as the “follower/following” model or even the alternative “mutual friends” model most of us are used to. Its somewhere in the middle there. I will however say that the G+ way is most like real-world sharing so I appreciate the unique approach.

I guess it gets weird to me because if they don’t circle you back you’ll never see any of their posts. Additionally if you circle them and share something to that circle, they will never see it unless they’ve circled you back, somewhere correct?
Also that link doesn’t explain anything about visibility of posts around circles.

Would much rather take this water-proof (is that an industry first?) phone over its standard white plastic variant.

When I share something to all my circles (I’ve circled 55 ppl total)- or their extended circles, am I actually sharing to those people or am I sharing to the 500+ that have circled me? Pretty sure its the former. but regardless,
The concept of grouping friends into circles is naturally understood but Google doesn’t make it clear.. what does it really mean to be circled?

I’m in the same position but my thought is to wait. I bought the GN for this price and all it did was come down in price over the next few months. I have a feeling Google will be revamping its real Nexus line (tablet and phones) in Q3 just in time for the holidays.

Uhm well nobody in Detroit really even wanted this, it was started more as a joke and funded by people across the world after the kickstarter link went viral (not sure why you’re claiming government waste).

That sheered black does not look attractive.. this should’ve been my next but sadly its not as attractive to me as the Nexus 4.. I’m waiting to see what happens at I/O, whatever new phone they announce is likely what I will want to get, gotta go stock android over this mess.
