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

OT
What genre do you write? Big historical fiction reader here.

Well this is the first thing I've ever written, but it's sci-fi/fantasy.

I loved historical fiction when I was younger but I haven't read any for a while...

In fact I haven't read anything lately except Dune and then all of the Sookie Stackhouse books...

You mad, bro?

Not at all. Everyone mistakes my realistic (not pessimistic) attitude with being mad or upset in any way. I'm totally calm and relaxed about this whole thing. I also realize that Verizon just doesn't care about us and will release this phone when they want, not when we want. And no amount of rumored dates or "confirmations" is going to change that fact. When Verizon does finally make it official, I will be going completely crazy nuts with joy just like the rest of you.

I do have work to do. Like run the stores. Calm down a little buddy.

Forgive him. We love his optimism.
Kinda reminds me of the dog in Dr Doolittle that keeps jumping for the ball to be thrown. (no offense Scott!)

Just got off the phone with my local Verizon CSR at Costco. He said that the date they have is the 15th. However, he said a lot of times (with other hot phones) they only get about 10 phones in and then will get around an additional 40, a couple of days after the release. My Costco is no joke in size and is located in a busy metro area. He stated that Costco has opened early (9:45am instead of 10:00am) in the past, specifically for phone releases. He said to be safe, get there at 9:45. He stated that he and his team get there at 9:30am on release days. I'm planning on 9:30am.

He also stated that they will be selling it as a package with additional accessories (screen protector, car charger, etc.) $289 as mentioned before.

Thanks! and Welcome!

I swear, I'm not posting any more info I get here. Every time I post something it gets ignored or questioned, yet someone 10 posts later can post the exact same info and get 30 thanks for it. smh

As a firearms instructor I strongly recommend getting instruction. There is nothing worse then trying to break old habits whet it comes to shooting. That's why women usually make the best student... They haven't picked up any bad habits shooting with their friends out in the woods

What is QFT?

Han - you should get your sister a phandroid/AF jersey with some number on the back that lines up with the Nexus release or something and for the name have sister crossed out, followed by hanette crossed out, followed by miss piggy crossed out, followed by cheetara.... or something along those lines.

I love how everyone's pouring in with the 15th now. Every post I read that further confirms the 15th makes me feel all fuzzy inside.

Anyone else find it odd/piss them off that everyone calls Nick Brody "Brody"? Even his wife calls him Brody. Uhh, hello? That's your last name too...Your calling your husband your last name? Awkward...

Nah. It's like Kramer!

I think he was responding to DrexelDragon, not Scott?

I can't believe I am upgrading from an OG Droid to a Galaxy Nexus. It is, in many ways, twice the phone that my Droid is:

So we've come full circle with no Nexus release. At this rate we should be typing posts in binary before we have this device in hand...
