Of course not. I'm gonna wait for the Galaxy Note III.
Well I am stuck with the 3 until the 5 comes out
you know what? this might not be real cuz it is using a nexus interface....hmmmm
yeah, that mock up is with stock android.
That really doesn't mean anything these days:

And Samsung is definitely a company to be worried about. They are going to soon be far more pervasive than Apple considering how much of the manufacturing process these days is owned by Sammy. Fortunately they seem to be much more innovation focused and open-source friendly than their draconian tech brethren, but obviously that could change once they grab enough of the market.
right, but that is not a flagship.
That's a good point. Still, if Samsung were to use stock Android they would completely decimate other carrier sales.
Which means its time for Google to get serious with their Motorola wing. Basically what is referenced in the article Leemajors posted
I am just assuming Google does not know what to do with hardware themselves at this point. It's been a damn long time.
Well I am stuck with the 3 until the 5 comes outnot having two phone lines which gives you an upgraded every year.
Believe it or not, I disagree. Most people aren't like you or I, I don't think a statistically significant portion of the population would swing toward Samsung if they went pure android. XDA forums and their ilk would be on NERDRAGE alert, but that is what... 2 % of the smartphone buying public?

If you were hoping to see a revelatory smartphone from Motorola in the near future, you might want to tone down those expectations. Google's Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President Patrick Pichette today said that products in Motorola's pipeline "aren't 'wow' by Google standards." The surprisingly honest admission came during Pichette's session at the Morgan Stanley Technology Conference. When questioned on where things stand with Motorola at the moment, Pichette didn't mince words. "The case with Motorola is that we've inherited a pipeline," he said, which Google executives have made clear in the past. Unfortunately, it sounds as if there's plenty of runway left. "Motorola has a great set of products, but they're not really like 'wow' by Google standards. Dennis Woodside and his team have inherited 18 months of pipeline that we have to drain right now."
Recent releases from that pipeline including the Droid RAZR Maxx HD and Droid RAZR M have been met with positive feedback from consumers and critics, but Google's most avid fans have made it clear they expect to see something more. However, Pitchette's words suggest a Motorola-branded device with true Google inspiration is several months away at best.
... several months away
Ouch.

Specs of at least one version appear to be:
Exynos 5410 octa-core 1.8GHz processor, a 5-inch full-HD display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, 2GB of RAM, a 13-megapixel camera and Android 4.2 Jelly Bean.
Octacore?!?? Holy ! I found out my upgrade discount goes into effect in May. I think I'm gonna pick this one up.
Looks like it'll be a good phone but since I own a S3 I don't think I will feel compelled to upgrade. The big question for me is how thin they managed to make the edges, if they make the S4 smaller or the same size as the S3 with a bigger screen, it'd be pretty nice.
But if I buy anything samsung this year it will most likely their new flagship plasma tv, the F8500...
...what they're gonna put in the Galaxy Note III
Supposedly leaked on twitter by a reliable source according to engadget at least :
