I've found the notification LED to be very good both under sunlight, bulb light and in the dark
Great news! The one on the Sensation is absolutely terrible, and the one on the 9900 is fantastic.

Is this on the bottom of the phone yeah? Ive not managed to see it yet...
Thanks for the headsup. Will try and report back!
Yep i've had quite a few notifications that I've noticed due to the light.
I don't know how it compares with other notification LEDs though, might be crap, but I think it's good

anyone have a rooting guide for n00bs?
RE Best Video Player :
DicePlayer - was the only thing that worked properly on my Asus Transformer and now also works on the GN
Uses Hardware Acceleration
RE Notification Light
Much better then on any HTC device
Its nice and big, Measure 3mm in diameter
Very Clear in all lights, Not too bright in the dark so it dosnt illuminate the room but very noticeable

For using this phone as a modem via tethering -
- Is this function supported out of the box?
- Does it require rooting or can I simply connect my phone via USB and connect to the net?
I already have an easytether license anyway so it doesnt matter much.

What notifications do you recieve? So far ive only seen notifcations for texts and football results from livescores.
I really need missed calls notifications grrr! I had this on my desire and it was very useful!
Theres is an option in settings for tethering and mobile hotspots etc. Im not sure for usb tethering but wifi tethering works beautifully.

Oh wow that just sucks so hard Lol. Was really hoping it was a Samsung phone it would have their excellent video file type support
.
By wifi tethering do you mean wifi to the Phones 3G internet, or wifi to the home broadband?
I need connection via my sim card, not via the home broadband.
Mobile hotspots is connection through another broadband service, not through the phones 3G isnt it?
I would take it back
Sorry i should have been more clear. 3g tethering through my phones sim card. Proper tethering mate. I can use my phone as a wifi hotspot so my laptop essentially sees a wireless network which is my phones 3g sim card. Exactly what youre after.
I think it is a great phone but doesnt really have anything over the SGS2 which I also have. I think an SGS2 with ICS would be just as good minus the NFC. I prefer the form of the GN though.
I really do like ICS but my only gripe would be I cant get any video player to play a wmv file.
