Instant thrill.

Spoiler alert:

Spoiler

So, I just finished reading 'Green Eggs and Ham' by Dr. Seuss. If you haven't read this book yet, STOP - spoiler alert!

I was shocked that Sam was all like, 'I hate those eggs'. And then, just when you thought all hope was lost, Sam is like, 'Heck yes, I like those eggs afterall! Gimme some more!'. Fun trivia fact - Dr. Seuss wrote the book using fewer than fifty different words on a challenge from his editor.

And...that was pointless...

My store just said they will be selling it first thing tomorrow morning and have a bunch in stock. I will be there at 9 am to get it.

 

[Appleanche]

Something does concern me a bit:

If there is so much confirmation here that tomorrow is the day, why are the bloggers like Kellex not all over it with confirmations from their sources?

It's all still very vague to them.

What the frak is happening?

I'm guessing most of the Android blogs and such were embarrassed by their "Confirmed" posts and such, they really are going to lose credibility it they are throwing every date at the wall and hope it sticks, so they are probably going to avoid that until something more official.

It's getting frustrating, I just don't see it launching tomorrow. Even if it was a soft launch I'd think most places would be more in the loop and there would be at least an announcement. I better prepare myself mentally to getting a Rezound.

Man, I hope that some of us who are claiming their corp stores told them tomorrow aren't BSing the rest of us.

I just PMd you my sales associates info I just left. Call and confirm it. I had two associates and a manager confirm tomorrow and the manager offered to reserve it for me as well.

Verizon is trying out their new "Silent Fart" release strategy.

He who smellt it, dealt it.

HHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH love it

 

[jamesoja]

Starting to have a serious hot flashes. For me it is always about the "thrill of the hunt." After I get the kill i am often disappointed. The real fear/panic is I have no clue where I will turn my attention to next to waste all of my free time. Suggestions?

 

[woodraskam]

Whether or not the Nexus officially launches tomorrow, I have a feeling some of us will become owners of a new Galaxy Nexus. Others will be left empty-handed.

The ratio between proud owners and empty-handeders remains to be seen.

If they do that again, I feel a few more best buy's and Resellers will be willing to break date after this latest fiasco.

 

[johnnybirdman]

Man... I sure hope that they don't sell out of White RAZR's tomorrow. Do you think if I am there right when they open that I have a chance?

Ya, how many times are they going to say... "but would you like to see the white Razr before you buy the Nexus."

 

[WheresTheBeef]

FWIW: Just called two stores (one corporate and one reseller). Neither have heard anything about a launch tomorrow. Both stores denied even having any in stock. The stores I called are about an hour north of Philly.

With as much misinformation that is going around (and has been), I can't believe the phone is released until I have it in my hands. I'm still appreciative of all the work people are going through to get inside info but confusion appears to be everywhere from the top to bottom of VZW.

Which VZ corporate? I'm north of Philly too.

Altimax is right!

The rep told me that it is "for sure, 100% coming out tomorrow".

 

[nismo300zx96]

if you walked into a verizon store and they said we are selling them tomorrow come back tomorrow....would you walk out and say no way in hell im getting one?


OK MAYBE you would but still thats better then what we have all heard previously.

Lex, what store did you go to? I've called just about every Verizon, Radio Shack, and Best Buy in Rhode Island. All claim to be ignorant of a launch date and deny carrying any in stock.

My store just said they will be selling it first thing tomorrow morning and have a bunch in stock. I will be there at 9 am to get it.

What kind of store is it ?

 

[AntimonyER]

I am starting to wonder if VZW is gonna wait till 5PM to release this PR too, you know, to make sure its all done symmetrically. (And by symmetrically, I mean a complete cluster no matter which way you look )

The watering hole to bs with us.

 

[Reborn58]

Until we have a press release from Verizon, I'm on a hunger strike. Unless i get really hungry...but you know...

 

[tluley51]

I really find it humorous that everyone is still geared up for tomorrow even after Verizon made their announcement for today. Did you guys know that the word gullible isn't in the dictionary? Haha

Altimax is right!

The rep told me that it is "for sure, 100% coming out tomorrow".

THAT is why everyone is still geared up. Our reps tell us it is 100% coming out tomorrow. Just because your poopy reps in CNY don't tell you jack, doesn't make it ok to come reign on our parade!!

 

[iowabowtech]

Worst case scenario:

Some stores show green light to sell tomorrow, most likely retailers. If it comes down to it, I will be hawking every store in a 10 mile radius in hopes of getting one as confusion over release date rears its ugly head again. I have the morning off...dusting off my tactical gear as we speak for special ops. Let's hope I don't need it.

 

[Laxstar785]

Lex, what store did you go to? I've called just about every Verizon, Radio Shack, and Best Buy in Rhode Island. All claim to be ignorant of a launch date and deny carrying any in stock.

I didn't personally get that response, but others have thats why I have said that. I called a few places too here in RI and they all seem to be clueless as well.

 

[woodraskam]

If the worst does happen remember to keep civil and love your nexi brothers/sisters.

but Verizon better not poop in my stocking on Nexmas

 

[OfTheDamned]

So when does the post-launch thread get created?

We have two already.

http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...cial-i-just-ordered-my-g-nex-type-thread.html
and
http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...g-nex-first-impressions-thread-love-hate.html

These threads will be more on-topic (like the rest of the forum) than this one though.
