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

Here's my own suggestion for handling the end of the thread.

My greatest fear is that there will be a circus free-for-all with 10,000 posts all trying to ninja each other for the last post. The AF servers will crash (they are already twitchy) and it will be a giant mess, with idiots trying to post "LAST!"

Here is my plan of action, Holiday party with co workers,Then do 12 x 8 shift at work. Head strait to the VZW store near my house and be there for the 10 am opening. DO NOT GET IN MY WAY OR SOMEONE WILL BE NEXECUTED!

haha my co-workers wonder why i'm laughing all the time.

wow. i tried to come up with a witty picture of being nexecuted. note to anyone tried to google image "executed"... safe image filter would be a wise choice.

BAH....lol you and nismo are bringing me up and down on the roller coaster I am going to call the rep in warwick I buy from at 2 i think thats when he gets in I will report back.

The Wireless Zone in East Providence says they only have 2 in stock and a couple people have already reserved them. I can't get there for opening because of a damn conference call!!!

The stores that aren't saying anything don't have their stock yet. When it comes in, they are able to say it will be released tomorrow.
They can't sell what they don't hav, so why would they say it will be available? And Verizon doesn't want people coming in expecting to buy a phone when there aren't any there, so the policy is "if you don't have it, you don't have it".

Seems pretty simple to me. Kind of like what you would call a soft launch..........

I'm not from boston, but love Drop Kick Murphys. Got some cranked up now. I would love to see them live in Boston, on St. Patricks day!

they do a bunch of shows that week, they always all sell out though. They actually do a free one in the morning of St. Patty's day, but, obviously, you hafta get there reeeeally early. ;)


Good to see a few more RI people here waiting for this damn phone...thought I might have been the only one lol

Agreed. I just called the Providence Place store to have one set aside, and was told that tomorrow is NOT the day.

Just put one on hold at Grand Wireless on Baldhill Road in Warwick as well

huh, lotsa RI-ers! I actually work in Taunton, so if I can't find a place here that has 'em I'd be willing to drive out there, seems pretty mixed, though.

A store in Chicago is saying that they can bill it to my account today and have it ready for me to pick it up tomorrow.

That means it's in the system, guys. We are good to go!

Careful there Han, someone else posted it IS in the system, but for $10,000. That would be one NASTY bill next month ;)

I apologize in advance, I am bored.

'Twas the night before Release Day, when all through the store
Not a creature was stirring, not a manager on the sales floor;
Accessories were hung on display racks with care,
In hopes that the Gnex soon would be there;
The Members were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of Ice Cream Sandwiches danced in their heads;
And OTD in her nightie, and Steven58 in his cap,
Had just settled down for a brief late-night nap,
When from his computer there arose such a clatter,
Steven58 sprang from his bed to see what was the matter.
He woke up his Mac to see what was causing the ruckus,
In the back of his mind thinking,
