I am for sure going to stop by one as well! If I can get rid of this Dcharge today, that will make up for a whole lotta crappyness this week! I bet chances are slim but with the ads, and product page, worth a shot right?

Lol I feel your pain! I got rid of that trash last week when I bought rezound. VZW gave me 162 for mine.

Hopefully Best Buy will start selling the GN today, for Verizon customers. I am waiting on the GSM version however. I've been tempted to order online at the current "premium prices", but waiting for a possible chance to buy it locally maybe at a lower price. Anyone care to guess how long the Verizon "exclusive" will last?


Maybe we are looking at this delay all wrong. I what if their exclusivity starts when the phone launches, not from announcement. So by holding the release, Verizon in a strange way is extending their exclusive rights to selling the phone. They hold it, but generate more buzz for the carrier and how it has the Nexus, and in their mind/theory, generate more new accounts by getting more customers on other carriers interested. Obviously the flaw is that phone needs like us are aware of it so it will backfire to some extent but to the general public, it might be working. I know I've noticed a lot of newbies coming into this thread/forum lately...

Just my new theory, FWIW.

Good Morning Gnexers!

According to my calendar, we have 11 days to go!

Of course, it wouldn't be the first time we've had 11 days to go :rolleyes:

Let's hope this is the real one: 11 days to go!

I know, I said 11 days yesterday but I was off a day on my calendar. Happens sometimes. So my FINAL FINAL answer is 11 days to go, including today.

Off topic, Congratulations on nearing 50,000 posts! BUT: it took 35 hours to get from 47k to 48k posts, and 31 hours to get to 49k. We had better get some news fast if we're going to make this EPIC thread even more unbeatable... we're starting to slow down! :eek:
