Time:4pm (unfortunately I have to work)
Maybe I'll hit up the store on my lunch, because I KNOW I wont be able to wait
For me it depends.. if its 12/9 ill do a pre-order since I cannot get off friday. But Thursday ill be there for purchase in store, unless a preorder starts monday. which i doubt
This particular location opened two hours early for the X launch last year. That would work better for my daily routine, but I will leave work about 8am if they aren't opening until 9.
Date: 8 Dec or 9 Dec (depending on when it's released) State: Michigan City: East Lansing OR Okemos Store: Corporate store on Grand River (both are on the same road, just a few miles apart) Time: 10 AM
I live in s. Lakeland will be going either to the lakeside store or bartow depending on where the salesman that said he would hold me one is working that day. Oh and I will be there when the doors open.

I don't like the lakeside store. Its not a corperate store and I've had isses with them and my upgrade. The corperate lakeland store is like 5 minutes away just north of the parkway on 39 on the right across the street from walmart

I wasn't sure if lakeside was corporate, I usually go in there because i am already at the mall. I wonder if the corporate store will have more phones? I don't want to miss getting a phone.
Date: 12/8-12/9 State: Wisconsin City:Chippewa Falls, Wi Store:Lake hallie corporate store Time: Store opening
I work nights and I get done at 630am so I'll be wide awake when im done just gotta wait for the store to open and I'll get it.
Anyone else in the New Orleans area? The only other person on here that I know of is Atrav who may or may not be stuck with a TBolt. Haven't seen him on here.

Do you know where Chipotle is? It's right around the corner from there.
I never would have thought I'd find another HPer on here! I thought I was the only one in the whole town who's getting a GNex :P
Oh yeah I know the place. I'll probably hit up the corporate store in northbrook on lunch. Or order online and have it delivered to work. And for the record I said I work in hp definitely not a HPer.

Okay, I'll play along:
Date: December 8th
State: TN
City: Tullahoma
Store: Corporate Store
Time: 8:45 AM
Since I know of NO ONE else around here who wants a Nexus, I may have to beam with myself besides, I need to wait until 10:45 for MY Rep to show up at work. MY Rep gets the commission... UNLESS there is an insanely long line for Nexus and I'm afraid they'll sell out early. But I'll be there at opening to play with the demo and pick out accessories
I may end up going to Waldorf rather than Clinton. They open at 9 rather than 10 and I have an interview at 1PM. Will give me an extra hour with my new Nexus.
Device(s): Verizon Galaxy Nexus, Droid (retired). I also troubleshoot GF's Thunderbolt (BAMF) & 2 stock Bionics

I work in HP, too. Hyde Park! Only a couple days a week, for part of the school year. And I don't live anywhere near there. I also work in Northbrook, occasionally. My job is weird.
If there isn't a pre-order that will get it to me sooner:
Date: before 12/25 (cause that's when my $100 coupon says it expires)
State: IL
City: Bloomingdale
Store: Corporate Store
Time: 9 AM

It would probably have more phones. I have a corperate discount too and I can only get that at the corp store. Also the non-corp stores have sim card stock issues. Its right down the street so ill head to the south store.
Thanks everyone for participating. Hopefully we can have some meetups going on. Especially that Waldorf store lol.
@mistamista2000 I updated your location to clinton/waldorf
The Following User Says Thank You to altimax98 For This Useful Post:
Date: Whichever day this baby decides to grace us with her presence
State: NJ
City: Howell
Store: VZW corp store on Rt 9
Time: Sometime between 4 and 5 (whenever I can get out of work)
Date: 12-8
State: South Carolina
City: Seneca
Store: 1227 Sandifer Blvd corporate store Time: opens at 9. I'll be there 15 minutes early.
If it launches on the 8th, I'll be at the store when the doors open. I just happen to have that day off work, and the store is 1.4 miles from my house. If it's on the 9th, I'll either have the store hold one for me, or pre-order and have it shipped to work. Friday's Christmas party day, and I'm not leaving the office during that. It's almost like a free vacation day.
date; both if i need to state: texas city: jacksonville store: vzw there is only one and you know where it is time: early enough to be the first one in the store

Reason: changed my mind on the store
Date: 12-8
State: Massachusetts
City: Framingham
Store: 86 Worcester Road or 150 Worcester Road (Corporate Store)
Time: opens at 9. I'll be there 30 minutes early.
I will be taking the day off of work and will be there 30 minutes early. The Corporate store opens at 10, so if for some reason the retail store is packed (highly doubt that) I will drive 2 minutes to the Corporate Store and wait the extra hour to be one of the first in line, lol
The same scenario applies for 12/9, too Can't wait to get this phone in my hands
Assuming it is released this weekend I will probably be picking it up from a friend who works at an indirect dealer instead of the store listed previously. Just thought I'd update for accuracy.
The Galaxy Nexus is the third official phone contracted by Google and the first phone to come with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Specs include a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, 16/32GB of internal storage, a 4.65 inch 720p HD Super AMOLED... Read More
