just got off the phone with 611 - kinda amusing, she got the e-mail saying tomorrow was the launch day as i was on the phone with her :)

anyway, she not only set up my account so i can now go into a store tomorrow and get it rather than having to wait for it to ship, she also moved up my NE2 credit from the 29th to tomorrow so i can get the extra $30 off! now i just need to call the store to set up an appointment...

Now this is truly funny Just called the local BJ's Verizon kiosk and the guy that answered the phone told me they have them but are not allowed to sell them till they get an official announcement from VZW. I told him that it was announced on VZW's Twitter about 10 - 20 min ago.
He asked me to hold. After about 3 min he came back on the line and said that indeed it was officially announced and would go on sale tomorrow morning no sooner.

WOOT!! I now have 2 with my name on em for first thing in the am

Also, FWIW, I called my local VZW corp store after it was announced and here's how it went (I'm paraphrasing):
Me: So you will have the Galaxy Nexus tomorrow?
VZW: No, sir, we don't have a date for it yet.
Me: Verizon just announced it in a press release.
VZW: I don't think so, sir.
Me: With all due respect, you're wrong.
.....

As long as you said "with all due respect" you could have let her have it....

it's in the Geneva Convention
