What's the deal Early? :p

Well - this really should not come as anything other than a welcome surprise.

We did mention before that our current AI replacement for Steven58 was in beta and would be out soon. The AI Early Mon(itor) beta was elected for your mod-bot replacement needs. :)

Ladies and gentlemen, my Killbot features Lotus Notes and a machine gun. It is the finest available. :)

Father did very well with both of us.

I hope that new complexities in my positronic net won't degrade - I've just read all of the posts here 14 times in 93 milliseconds, so I'm certainly within spec.

Curious they take us for human.

Goto image file 88/HUYEL-14.img - you'll find that I'm also equipped with my own docking port for the upcoming Nexus. :)

I was always the favorite, though. :p

I would be thrilled with a 21st preorder, I would be OK with a 28th-in-my-hand. I would NOT be OK with a 25th release because there are 2 days I will be out of town, the 24th and 25th. I do not want my stores to sell out because I was visiting family.

Steven's source was a little confusing. Talking of the possibility of a 21st release, but saying the testing reports weren't due until that Monday (which would be the 21st) which later somehow morphed into the 28th. Anyone else find that hard to follow (or did I just read it too fast)? Regardless, it looks like the 28th is the earliest we'll see this beast. What to do until then...? I have developed a new hobby: tweeting Verizon clever ways of telling Verizon to release the Nexus. I know it won't do anything, but it helps me feel like I'm working towards something...:)

Yes.

You always will be. ;) :)

Ladies and Gentlemen -

This pre-launch off-topic horseplay is brought to you courtesy of Phases and myself - I thought maybe a _little_ comedy to lighten the stress of this roller coaster of rumored dates might pep y'all up some. :)

Of course, there can be only one Steven.

Brother. Your correlation transfers were impeccable - I sound nearly as human as you do.

Final_cross_check...[OK]

Steven58, stand by...

It's my shakedown phase.

Steven58, one of our best artificial intelligences ever, has gained a wide following - a huge improvement over Steven57.

I only hope that I can fill his data paths!

Love the avatar. It fits. :)

"His sources are real. But he is not."
"AI 2: The Steven59 Protocols. Coming to theaters (and forums) soon" :D

The truth is everyone is doing their best to provide plausible dates but anyone's guess is as good as the next.

You shouldn't bank on anonymous sources since I've seen countless Pre-Release threads come and pass dates with "sources" waayyy too many times.

You just have to wait it out and hope for the best.

All we know is that it will be released before the end of the year.

Any other date is irrelevant at this point.

"Hey @VerizonWireless I didn't see you there, but while I have you when is the Nexus coming out?"
or
"I don't care about the Galaxy Nexus @VerizonWireless, but if I don't hear a release date soon I'm going to gouge my eyes out."

or endless amounts of other tweets lol
