Too lazy too backtrack 16 pages (congrats on V4, btw), but has anyone tried the CyanogenMod 9 Music Player yet?

CyanogenMod 9 stable still isn't ready for the GalNex yet, but the music player installs fine on stock ICS.

AnandTech review of the Google Galaxy Nexus is finally up, btw.

The video review in particular, is very impressive. Especially his breakdown on the different approaches Google, Apple and Microsoft take with regards to their mobile operating experience. Though you can still tell he's a hardware guy first and foremost by the way he refers to new SoCs and doesn't quite get why the Nexus line is pure Android without OEM skins. Personally, I'd rather take an older processor in an easily rootable/hackable device compared to a slightly faster processor in a heavily OEM skinned locked down device.

WiFi browsing battery drain tests were disappointing, tbh.
I wonder how much that'll improve with updates, kernels and custom ROMS.
