I can't decide whether to be optimistic or pessimistic about thursday. I'm getting to the point where I'm just getting upset lol.

Well......... I have been fried crispy here for a while now and am the same way, both optimistic & pessimistic about Thursday.

But I am off and will be up, so a buddy and I are going to see what it looks like at the Corp Store Thursday AM.

Phone or no we are eventually going out to breakfast, a plan that cannot fail.

 

[NDFinster]

I'm so glad that my exams will be finished on Wednesday so I don't feel guilty when I spend a good long time obsessing over this phone.

Shop > Smartphones > "Quick Look" on the Razr. Then a "Chat" button should show up on the popup.

Definitely hang around the "RAZR" page...HAHA

Is this the first time its actually shown up ina third party system??!

No, I hacked it out of BB and Radio Shack ages ago, the difference is Membership wireless (costcos 3rd party cell phone provider) does not upload unless a launch is close

1600 pages !!

Odd how the picture of the back doesn't have verizon or 4g lte on it.

 

[RazorSharp]

Hello!
So, sounds like things haven't changed yet...this is tentatively good news I guess. Was it on the 9th last week that launch got reset? Or, before....
I'm wondering if there might be a window, past which we can actually begin to be comfortable that the rug will stay firmly under our feet, lol....

It was the 8th, I think, the day before. Verizon sent a bunch of frantic emails out saying, in effect, "No wait, don't sell it yet!!"

 

[CinLou]

I seem to be the only one who is in disbelief of the CH4GE or the or the only one voicing it. And the only one who reports that any and all Verizon representatives say it does not exist......... Am I Dreaming?

​

CH4GE


​

No you're not dreaming because the CSR I spoke to got off the phone for 15 minutes checking the code and said they couldnt find it. Also I am coming from a Samsung Rogue so that could be another reason why I didnt get it.

 

[m1scr3ant]

How many of you will be picking up the Otterbox case for this? The extended battery? These two are at the top of my list. I swear by Otterbox...

 

[Mittar]

Well this is odd... I called a CSR and dropped the Nexus name and the doorways reference, she went away to talk to a supervisor for like 5 minutes. When the CSR came back, she said I didn't qualify for the 3g/4g discount, since Denver isn't midwest, but she would give me a $100 credit on the Nexus when it was released. Added it to my account notes

I think this goes to show that they have alot of power to treat you right, you just have to find one in the mood and be a charmer

 

[Mooem]

I'm remaining optimistic as well.



I'm hoping that's the case. My poor OG Droid is hanging on for dear life.

Considering a lot of sources have been saying the 15th (either from here or other blogs who have sources), there hasn't been a deviation from that yet. Not saying it's impossible for it to be pushed back further just like the 9th was...just three more days till we know.

Such anxious times we're in.

I'm so glad that my exams will be finished on Wednesday so I don't feel guilty when I spend a good long time obsessing over this phone.

I have my final in upper level Mathematics this Friday, Economics on Monday of Next week, and Astrophysics on Tuesday. Although I am studying like a maniac, the non-release of this phone is distracting me

 

[ItsASamsung]

I ordered both from a corporate store should be getting it tomorrow or Wednesday. You can go do so right now.

That is good..promising, even.
At any rate, we appreciate your efforts Zedster. You are a major asset to this thread, keep up the good work!

^^This. I talked to my CSR about this promo, and about his CHILD SUPPORT. I paid the price for getting that promo. I'm generally an evil person when I know something is being withheld. Bite your tongues and be nice - persistence and charm work wonders.

Given the extended battery adds almost no thickness, I'm definitely going to pick one of those up!

 

[Hilbe]

Is it sad I brought my GN accessories to Chicago on a business trip in hopes a VZ store here might sell me one in the next few days? I'm going to be driving home SUPER early on Thursday to snag a GN at 9am ET opening if that date doesn't change...

 

[m1scr3ant]

How do I do that? Order it FOR a corp. store?

 

[Mach Droid]

Imagine how distracted you would be if you actually had the phone

 

[jkc120]

I asked earlier, and I apologize if I missed the reply, but if the price shows $249 online for a rezound/razr and the nexus is similarly priced, does that mean I will get that price at the store? Or is that extra $50 the thing that will require a mail in rebate to get when purchasing in the store?

 

[rooktdphi]

man, this is getting exciting! These Costco photos hopefully are a sign of things to come!

 

[TheStapher7]

I can't believe were about to break 80,000!

 

[ItsASamsung]

Typo :/ Fixed *from*.
