Nexus appears to be stuck on startup mode

Is anybody else having a problem with their Nexus appearing to be stuck in startup mode with all the different colors and shapes continually displaying?

It just started about 40 minutes ago and has been nonstop. Is this how the Nexus looks when it updates its software? And can it be stopped if it isn't a software update?

This has happened to quite a few Galaxy Nexus owners of both the CDMA and GSM models.  I don't think that it was caused by a software update.  The solution is to do a hardware factory data reset on the phone.

Thanks...after a while, I pulled the battery out, put back in, and has the 4.04 upgrade! Go figure!
