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

[woodraskam]

quick, someone take down the verizon email system so they can't send out the email about the delay.

Spoiler

Don't actually do this

What's this about nyg010? Was he able to pre-order?

 

[jokeefe10]

Did you call the newport center one? What's frustrating is, even at the same store, responses are all different depending on a rep. Screw VZW.

yeah i called the newport one. now with all the cancellations going on i'm afraid to call back.

Hate to be bringing bad news but just got off the phone with the corporate store on north dale Mabry in Tampa Florida and they told me they got an email saying not to sell it tomorrow. Spoke with 2 different people about it too. And this morning they had one on reserve for me. Issue with it being corporate? ((((

theres a place in MD already mailing them out and a member on here is already having one overnighted to them, what say you (and the tampa store) to that?

 

[COHusker]

This is outrageous.

 

[jbdan]

So now we have people being told they just got the ok to sell it and others saying they were just told its on hold. This is absurd.

It's always been absurd though. We got info and that's all we got to go off of. Crazy I know

Do I need to put that in my siggie??? " the girl with a trusting face"

Darn too late, i just sent a major virus to their database in Baskingridge, it knocked out their whole website and gave all of the VP's genital warts

COMPLETELY KIDDING

 

[Duluke]

Are things about to get weird?

 

[Manny212]

I just called my local RS too, and no dice. Don't even have stock, supposedly. Oh well. I'd rather get the $100 off at Verizon corp. anyway.

Well I just called mine too and they said they had no inventory. However, I was there Monday and one guy said they had it in stock just no release date yet. So they're all just keeping quiet

I was a little worried about posting this, but since a few negative posts have been popping up, I guess I should add mine:

I have been talking the ear off of one of my friends about the Galaxy Nexus. I've been telling her how awesome and blah blah blah it will be. Anyway...for her birthday today, her boyfriend bought her an iPhone4S. Since she was at the Verizon store, she asked about the Nexus. She sent me this from her new iPhone:

"The verizon person also told me that they heard rumors that the new phone was going to miss its second launch. Just an FYI"

I couldn't tell if she was just rubbing it in my face that she got a new phone, or if she was being serious. She hasn't returned any of my emails/texts to give me any other info.

Oh well.....

Seems strange that a lot of people are getting the green light, while others are being told it's delayed.

Not corporate. Reseller in MD. And at this point it looks like they may not ship it, or if they do he may not be able to activate it.

Any word from Cheetara on why they are cancelling the release AGAIN? Verizon sucks.

 

[HanSolo]

What the hell?

Now you guys are saying it's a no go?

What the hell!!!!

This better not be true.

Are you guys frakking BSing? Seriously!!

 

[woodraskam]

A good chance the seller hasn't received the latest update. I hope there's a revolt at the resellers. I'd pay full price tomorrow if that was the only way to get one, if nothing else just so Verizon doesn't have me on lock down for the next 2 years.

 

[davey11]

Just got off the phone with a corp store in CT. They have had stock since last week, got more today, and just got a e-mail that the release is off. No new date.

Happy.....unhappy.....happy....unhappy.....happy.....unhappy

Wheee a rollercoaster!

 

[jimmypop13]

Great news! The corporate store I visited last Friday on the off chance the nexus still came out had taken down my name and number and said they'd call when they had more info.
Well the lady just called me and told me she just received an email saying tomorrow is the day and asked if I'd like to make an appointment! I said hell yes, 9am! She said that sounds great.
So excited now!! This definitely seems more official than last time!

 

[JRowMe]

Just called my Lake Orion Store.
He has FORTY DEVICES SINCE TWO WEEKS AGO.

Asked him about getting a no-go email. Said nope, as far as we know it's tomorrow, but i'll call you and let you know if anything changes.

so... fingers crossed. I'm getting off AF.

If this is another repeat of last week. I quit,

 

[benplace]

I thought this was odd... I called and asked my local corp store and the guy said call back in an hour and Ill have more info..

 

[red66charger]

I know nary a one. VZ is breaking all the rules of engagement on this release

Quoted for emphasis. Also, the RAZR and ReZound launches weren't without their quirks as well. It's almost as if VZW threw out their playbook in Q4.

 

[Vaetix]

I'm starting to hate Verizon.

 

[Mooem]

Haha...oh I just don't know what to say.

 

[Mormonstang]

I'm going to up the anti p) and go to 99.8% my corp store manager just texted me that he's been given the green light and tomorrow is the day!

Cool how all the pieces to the puzzle fall into place all at once.

Love your Christmas avi btw just noticed it

Same here actually

 

[AntimonyER]

More phones will be going out tomorrow. A lot more. Maybe its a new profit making technique by Verizon, tell all third party retailers the release is on, then cancel last minute, and fine all those that didn't follow (or didn't even see) the instructions.

 

[Grendil]

Troubling trend now, it's really amazing so many stores and customers keep being played for fools. Very close to not renewing my contract with Verizon now.
