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

[Highwayman]

If the 8th truely ends up being the release date, I will have to figure out where a VZW store is in Detroit as I will be there that week for work....

 

[Member112085]

Yeah

If the launch "does" end up being on the 8th. I leave for a cruise on the 10th. I'll probably wait till I get back to get it... (sad face)

So do I! Wouldn't it be hilarious if we were on the same boat?

 

[Parasitic]

What? Where? Yes I am a new customer since I am with AT&T.

**Wow. I see it now at Amazon**. Why the sudden price drop? Nexus? lol.

I just saw the news on Engadget that Amazon is doing their penny promotion which includes the Razr. Here is the link AmazonWireless: Motorola DROID RAZR 4G Android Phone (Verizon Wireless)

FYI just under 5k posts left to beat the Incredible thread. I think we got this.

I kind of hope we don't make it, that would mean we get the beloved nexus even sooner.

I think at this rate there is no doubt we will pass the INC thread.

To make myself feel a little better I decided to finally try the V6 TurboCharge script on my G2. So far, so good! Might help you guys too? [Script][U9 RC3.2!] -=V6 SuperCharger=- Die-Hard BulletProof HTK Launchers, 3G & KAK! - xda-developers

GNex getting another shout-out from mainstream media.

I know I did make a post about us being a small group, but I don't remember any phone, except maybe the OG Droid, getting this much love from outside our little world.

Two words: Black Friday

 

[statepenn03]

On the plus side, if they're trying/hopeful/doubtful of a release this week that has to mean that Verizon has some Galaxy Nexus' sitting in some warehouses somewhere right?

 

[EarlyMon]

There are too many butt kissers here to even make that fair

LOL

Not so much, really - the only vote that will count for how Steven posts is Steven's - but voting by giving thanks is fun, so c'mon - why not?!?

Spoiler

My wife can tell when I'm posting smileys because I just reflect what's already on my face to the keyboard. I crack her up, too.

It would be very hilarious if you are spouses and didn't know the others SN....

I'm sure someone here can point you in the right direction.

 

[jbdan]

I'm as anxious as anyone for the GNex but am I the only one who is just going to patiently wait for it?

Nope

I know all this is from yesterday... But I'm 34.... Today.... And was hoping for a GNex for my birthday from Verizon since I have been in a relationship with them for 8 years.

Happy 34th keep on hoping you made it this far

The anticipation is half the fun

I'd say it's most of the fun, but I know that's just me

I think at this rate there is no doubt we will pass the INC thread.

Thank you. Anyone know Amazon's return policy? Is it 14 days as well?

 

[MSUgEEk]

Come December 1st I'll be buying a phone no matter what.

 

[chanop]

Well, looks like I'll have to talk to my in-laws this Thanksgiving instead of burying my face in a new phone.

Your face changes colors when posting smileys? LOL you're a human mood ring

There seems to be no vetting going on, just wild speculation.

The only thing official will come from Verizon. Period.

Everything else is just rumor. Some rumors are more factual than others.

But Stephen is an individual of exceptional caliber, and has verified his sources. They are at least giving us something, even if the release date is a moving target and they aren't completely in the decision making process.

You may discuss the validity of the info, but please do not call into question the integrity of the posters, or the site.

 

[Parasitic]

I saw this the other day and thought that maybe we need a shirt for our phone. "Verizon, Making us wait for the Galaxy Nexus since 2011"

 

[Stigy]

I really enjoyed checking the FCC daily.

Checking the testman site doesn't seem as exciting though.

 

[brocktice]

Thank you. Anyone know Amazon's return policy? Is it 14 days as well?

30 days, but the Verizon line return period is 14. If you return within 3 days of activation you get your activation fee back too. I just did this with a Droid 3 last week. Not sure how it would work if you wanted to try to keep the line but swap phones. I emailed them to ask and never got a response.

Well, good luck with that. At least you may be able to get distracted occasionally as you update yourself on this forum

I post with a voice of reason and apprehension in believing these "sources" and they get deleted?

The term source implies they know something, and it's clear not a one of them knows a thing. It's just mysticism and sleight of hand to drive traffic. It's getting pathetic and highly questionable towards the mod staff here.

There seems to be no vetting going on, just wild speculation.

Your opinion on the pathetic nature of this thread and the questionable capacities of mod staff is noted.

Suggest you find other threads more to your liking and just check the OP for news from time to time.

I posted at length yesterday on vetting and if you want to ironically continue to post while driving our traffic up about complaining about our traffic, yes, those posts will be cheerfully deleted, along with the other negativity.

It's a big forum, find a place on it that's happy for you, come back to this thread when you've calmed down and can chat without attacking.
