[Q] Nexus s vs Galaxy S+

Hello.
I'm about to buy a new smartphone (im running Galaxy Spica right now), and I dont know what to buy..
I have a choice to buy Nexus S or Galaxy S + and I dont know which one is better for me. I am a student of computer science, and certainly I will be able to write software for Android. But I would like to record 720p videos..
Also, I found that on Nexus ICS have many problems right now..
Is there any chance for ICS on Galaxy S+?
Or maybe I should buy something else? My phone should be fast, have big screen (cuz I need to read pdf on this) also games should works fine.
I have about 250 euros.
Thanks for help

[Q] Which tablet to buy

I am deciding what tablet to buy. My requirement:
Capacitive screen
At least 7inch screen
Android OS
Expandable MicroSD
WiFi, 3G (optional)
I had almost decided on Galaxy Tab 310 or 620 (both 7inch) but yesterday I heard about the Micromax Funbook at an unbelievable price of 6500 and also supporting Tata Photon data card along with WiFi and 3G. I am tempted by the price as the features are not very different. Only cons of Micromax in my opinion are it is not a Dual core and battery is only 2800Mah compared to Galaxy Tab's 4000Mah. I will use this tablet mostly for home use only - internet browsing, android apps and light gaming. So, do I really need a Dual core or can I go for the Micromax funbook? I have heard some great things about the Motorola Xoom, increasing my dilemma further. Please suggest the best table for my needs described above.

Galaxy Tab
look Galaxy Tab 10.1 maybe u will like this tablet

I'd highly recommend the Motorola Xoom

The Xoom seems to be too costly around 35k. The Samsung 10.1 tablet is no longer available. I went to the Samsung Smartphone store and they have only 2 models - 310 and 620 both 7inch models

m9300 kyocera echo
ok so to start things off i have 2 identical m9300 android phones also known to the public as the echo. one of these devices seems to have some corruption the the boot/startup files as it keeps restarting itself just before getting to the android interface. so i was issued a replacement phone for this issue. unfortunatley the replacement phone took on water damage and now im trying to ressurect my old device. what i have no idea about is: is there a way to transfer/fix the startup files that may or may not be corrupt in my old phone? if anyone has any suggestions please email me.

What I need it to be uses is:
Cool Music Support, since im a pro musician
Internet support
Often camera usage
Few vdo
Few gaming
and good speed
modding aspects
Moderate battery probable is full 1 day.
I was checking on the recent phones, I was always with ericsson before...and I found:
xperia s,Acro S,Xperia SL and the new upcoming T, also the ION.
ION and Xperia SL seems to be very low moding aspects?
Also the HTC one x and x+ but they seem to have battery issues?
And The Lg optimus 4x hd
I was also taking a look for tabs, specially the samsung tab 2 both 7 and 10 inches, but the processors seem to be a low ?

[Q] Galaxy s duos s7562 vs samsung wave 3 or some other?

my first priority is looks, build & battery backup. tell me which one has better looks & real battery backup?
I strictly don't "need" a dual sim...so the second sim will always be empty in either case.Selected this as its the best available in my budget...(btw, my budget was rs.15000 but extended to rs.16000 for this phone as it seems to be a good phone for my requirements)
thought about taking htc desire v but after using my friend's desire v i dropped the idea as the touch seems to be missed by phone for a second...but otherwise its a fabulous phone too(earlier was confused b/w desire v & samsung s duos)
I've used samsung wave 3 for a day (another friend's phone) its smooth fast....but the problem is with apps & games....really couldn't find much interesting apps & games on internet.(being bada 2.0)
None of my friend has galaxy s duos so couldn't use it personally (anybody using it?give me a personal review)
I even heard wave3 is going to get tizen os (intel & samsung tie-up which will enable android apps on this phone) but samsung havn't said anything from last 6 months about confirming this...last update about tizen was a prototype phone launched to test tizen for developers. m afraid that suppose i buy wave 3 n samsung dont come up with tizen update then i would left with just the default apps(like samsung always do...they don't care about their existing consumers & come up with new to the new consumers only)
Also, tell me, i know super amoled display is better but does the tft lcd on galaxy s duos matches it so some extent?
I'm really confused. please help me?

[Q] [PLEASE HELP] iPod Alternative??!!??

Alright so I recently sold my iPod Touch 5g in search of a new media player that can also run on Wi-Fi and has a bigger screen. I also was tired of iOS so Android was my next option.
I bought the Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 which looked like a bargain at first but lags like hell and has terrible pixel density. The icons look disgusting...
Could someone recommend me a phone that could be used without a contract, as just a media player? The Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S, & Nexus 4 are some of my choices but I'd like more opinions. I want a sleek looking device. Which would you recommend?
A million thanks to anyone who helps me out.
