Of course, the other explanation is that Samsung and Google have seen the iPhone 4GS now and have decided launching the Nexus Prime quickly is not so urgent.
Fair point
I can see your point CAT, but surely the mediocrity of the 4S would just make this an even bigger and better opportunity to rub Apple's noses in it? And if that's what Samsung and Google planned, then it's quite possible that they're holding off on the launch to rewrite the Apple-bashing speech that may have accompanied it...
It could be that they've decided to let the GS2 have a bit longer at the top of the sales charts...
And companies are often at pains to say their roadmap execution doesn't factor in what the competition releases.
Seems like bit of a minor lull in the super-smartphone market.

Or maybe they decided to double check that Tim Cook & legal team couldn't start writ flinging again, (every time I hear of the Apple legal team springing into action I think of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SESI19h4wDo). But, as you say, the pressure to do one-upmanship isn't there since most folks seem to think that the existing SGS2 is more than a match for the 4S. Maybe launching next month would garner them more "column inches" anyway, rather than being seen as a "me too" launch.
Given that the Nexus (/Nexi?) seem to stick with Vodafone I think I'll be giving the latest one a miss too.
Maybe it never existed in the first place.
Perhaps it is due to the similarity between Siri and Google voice actions. Apple i'm sure will insist that they came up with the idea first and thus sue the pants off everyone else
Galaxy Nexus launch delayed due to Jobs' death - CNet (via engadget)"We believe this is not the right time to announce a new product as the world expresses tribute to Steve Jobs's passing,"
Strange, people die every day and it doesn't bother them?
They'll use it to their advantage, make no mistake about that. Perhaps they consider it harsh to p*** all over Apple when Jobs has just died and that doing so can wait a couple of weeks or so.
