Vivid is your only choice at the moment... Nexus might not come till Summer 2012 for Att&t..

ICS will be available on the SR very soon

May take longer then u think. The verizon galaxy nexus hasnt even be released yet. So no other phones will get ics until after it is

according to this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapdragon_(system_on_chip)
its the same processor in both. the international Raider is clocked at the same speed and the AT&T variant (Vivid) is slightly Underclocked from the factory. but they are both capable of the same speeds.

You don't even say why you want to return it.

I've personally contemplated getting the Galaxy Nexus (unlocked), but I'm torn between the two.

The main GN selling points for me are the higher res display, notification light and NFC out of the box. On the other hand, it's got a crappy camera, no LTE (plus I'm hearing lousy signal and data speeds on AT&T).

What I love about the SR is obviously LTE and the camera, but on the other hand I hate the 800x480 res and sound quality of both ear speaker and loud speaker is sub-par. Plus, no notification light is killing me, reminds of my days with an iPhone. Why does Samsung omit this feature is beyond me.

If you can live w/ less internal memory, than the LG Nitro HD LTE might be good.

The skyrocket is a really good device, you might as well keep it. Your other option on ATT is the vivid which I have and is a great device. But don't worry, with this CarrierIQ thing going on right now (which seems to be ATT only and not Google, Samsung or HTC) you ptobably should be able to opt out the contract at any time since you didn't sign up for that crap...
