***Official Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release speculation thread**

That's the problem. They have to unload stock of Razrs and Rezounds before they release the Nexus.....

I've got an idea, folks.

Let's each tell 10 people that the RAZR rocks and is a must-have device, and that we just heard that the Nexus is a POS!!

Let's get these garbage phones moving so that they can give us the Nexus already!

for those of us who have purchased the ReZound with the intent to return for the gnex..are you using or not using the Head Phones that came with the phone? I just don't want to use the head phones and then it's a deal breaker when trying to return it. Supposedly they are expensive head phones and i doubt they will want to take them back if they're used. As a side note, i've had the Rezound four about 2 hours now and it is a very nice phone, going to be tough to give up.


For all they know you bought the product with every intention of keeping it. Use the head phones all you want, what if they were the deal break in the whole purchase.. I say use em, all their gonna do is scrap them and someone will get your phone as a refurb with NO head phones.

Well if a few emails got me through to the office of the president with a phine call, imagine what THOUSANDS from this forum would do. At the worst, you MAY get an extra $50 off of the Gnex when it comes out. If what he says is true and it comes out pricing in the $299 price range then I will get my Gnex for under $200.

Everyone email tonight and see if we can't convince them to bump it up a bit. If you are going to harass someone, stop doing it at the bottom rung of the ladder with CSRs and in store managers. Let the top know how you feel. They are the decision makers after all.

I also don't want them to regret taking your call though. Then in two years, when we're waiting for our next dream phone, they'll be like "no, don't talk to them. Remember when we called one of them and then our phone lines went down for hours? Yeah, don't talk to them"

So I dunno.

Yeah, that's why I didn't post the full phone number. I figured if you want the number, you gotta send the emails. ;)

Unfortunately that could back-fire and cause them to postpone even longer since the phones are selling....

Got a link to the original post with emails and what people are sending?

I don't mind sending a few emails out tonight.

The whole "shipping to warehouses soon" stuff is lending more credibility to the 28th date that was stated last night by that Lance guy. Going to take a little time to get them to the warehouses and then out to stores.

Hmm...Just speculating, but how about shipped to warehouses this week and then soft launch/direct fill next week (web only or telesales), followed by a store release the week after that?

FYI:
I've researched and found the corporate names and contact info. Maybe a few of you could contact some of them and ask for more information. I have written to Mari Walden, Vice President and Chief Marketing officer. Here is what I wrote her:

Ms. Walden,
I'm writing to you to find out when you intend to announce and release the Galaxy Nexus. As I'm an sure you are aware, this device is generating a lot of excitement among your client base. While the average Joe may not know it's coming, those of us in the technology sector are EXTREMELY excited about it. I am well aware of the Droid Razr by Motorola and HTC Rezound, however, as a customer I am truly excited about being part of the true Google Experience that a Nexus device brings. Please take a quick look a just ONE thread regarding this phone:

http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...7-release-date-per-our-vzw-source-11-9-a.html

There are more than 26,800 posts about this phone and over a half of million hits speculating about it. I know that marketing this phone in it's proper time is important, but a little bit of information will go a long way.

Sincerely,
xxxx xxxxx
Customer since 2000

Here is the page where you can find all Executive Leadership:

Be polite and see if that gets us anywhere.

Is the president's email address posted somewhere?

See above.
