I've ordered online before and never lost my unlimited but that doesn't mean it Verizon couldn't mess it up now.
Hmm good point I may just do it online then the idea that I can get it a couple days early is tempting.

ok I'm getting a little excited about my Mom's new Rezound -- I hope she likes it!... think she'd notice if I stole the headphones?!
the benefit of pre order is being guaranteed a launch day device and not having to have a sales rep try to sell you extra accessories or try to set it up for you. and with the demand this phone seems to have, not having to be in line and being guaranteed a device seems the two biggest pluses

My mom got a DX2 and my dad had a DX and I swapped the backs and put her home screen on my Dads DX and she didnt realize it for a long time lol...
I would in a heartbeat... My mom got a DX2 and my dad had a DX and I swapped the backs and put her home screen on my Dads DX and she didnt realize it for a long time lol...

But if you think about it, there's no reason they couldn't, considering the fact that Samsung manufactures its own flash storage instead of relying on a 3rd party manufacturer. Plus, +16GB for -$100 would be a really competitive price, and flash storage costs decrease with time anyways.
I will not be preordering in this case -- but I would want to if I was paying out of pocket for the phone for several reason 1) possibility of getting it sooner via some sort of shipping speedy awesomeness, a'la Dinc b)satisfaction of knowing i ordered it at the first possible minute and knowing it will be in the mail and not having to worry about going to the store the day it launches.

The most recent trend has pre-orders arriving about 2 days before the store release. I know some people got the Razr on wednesday when it was released on friday... So maybe we could get it sometime on 10/6 or 10/5
WTF That damn target lady is STILL on commercials and its after black friday.......
I wouldn't. Some reports show the Beats EQ responds differently to their own headphones vs. others. Take that with the typical grains of salt, honestly. I think you'll find a lot of advice hereabouts on some headphones that seem to represent a better retail value, and maybe you're better putting those on your list to your Santa. Just an offhand opinion, yourmileagemom may vary.
In terms of preorder vs no preorder, as soon as the Nexus is up for sale, I'm ordering it, along with some accessories, and choosing the fastest possible shipping. And if it is between 16 or 32 GB, I'll do the 32. I've had the money saved since the Nexus/ICS HK event, and about half an hour into the event I fell in love with it. I'm all in on this one, cause that's how I roll.
Does she read the box contents? Lol.
I hope there's no having to decide. I want to walk in the store, put my money on the counter, have my phone retrieved from the back AND, most importantly, be able to plant a big wet sloppy kiss on my new baby.
alright, maybe not a kiss but I do want to hold it in my hot little hands
I HATE THE TARGET LADY!!!!!!!!!!!
Longtime lurker here...all the way back to the crazy Incredible days. I'm hanging with my DX waiting for the GN.
I was in a corporate store today just to take a look at the Rezound...they did not have it there and insisted on the Razr saying that it was "the best". When I said...I think not, I am waiting for the Galaxy Nexus, all 3 of them had no idea what I was talking about. So typical...and sad. I actually could tell them more about the Razr then they knew about it. It's amazing people even go into these stores

I'm actually going to end up pre-ordering online, because:
1. Satisfaction of ordering online
2. Possibility of early shipment
3. Stupid rep doesn't have to "set up" my phone, thus I get a literally untouched device!

Are most going to pre-order or go to the store? For those who respond what are the benefits of pre-order vs. store purchase?
I'm surprised I rarely hear any talk of best buy in here. In the past, they have always had phones on launch day, and plenty of them. Also, in the case of "renting" a phone, I don't understand why people keep going to verizon, as verizon has a $35 restocking fee and best buy has a $0 restocking fee. Plus, you get 30 days to exchange the phone for a different one (obviously only 14 days if you want to cancel service though).
