Well, someone just let me know that the priority meeting this morning only mentioned the Nexus in that it was being pushed back with no expected date.

I don't think tomorrow is going to happen.

It's amazing could of swore I said this at 9 am...yet received no thanks...and no one believed me. :rolleyes:

Guys,

I went to the Verizon store on my lunch break today. I asked one of the sales reps about the Galaxy Nexus. He tapped his left shoe once, rolled his eyes back for approximately 2 seconds, then scratched his crotch in exacty 9 up and down motions with his right hand. Then he told me he doesn't know anything.

He must be trying to signal to me that it's coming out tomorrow!!!!! 1 tap, 2 seconds, 9 scratches!! 12/9!!!!!

I'm so STOKED!!!!!11111ONE

Nice! I laughed out loud on this one!

Does any one have any blueprints / architectural drawings of a verizon store. maybe one that has a sewer line or something running under it?
Also looking for anyone that is a contortionist that can fit into a shipping crate?
This is completely unrelated to the Galaxy Nexus. Im just doing some...uh... research. yeah, research, thats it.

cool story dad.
how do you know what the pictures were? for all we know it coulda been pics of an update EG, or other hard evidence with a date.

obviously and expectedly it wasn't but you get my point.

And how many pix of screens showing dates, stock etc. have we seen already? Where is the phone, where is the date? I'll say it again, no date from Verizon, no date for the phone. Believe what you like and get disappointed as many times as you like, it's your prerogative.

Sorry guys, I'm just really frustrated and the inane 6 posts we had to go through until we got to the meaningless 'punch line' was just the icing on the cake.

Wow, and I thought I lived a rough life! :cool:
It's a hard knock life, for us..

I havent slept in about 30 hours due to exam studying and final reports so I may have misinterpreted your post as an insult. My apologies if this is the case.

On the other hand, I do feel i deserve a quick speed now that the caffeine has worn off, dont you?

In Han's defense how are they the same?
Unless there's some hardware updates and the phone looks completely different we already know what it looks like.

The news that Han gets from his sister is about something that is unsure and seems to be constantly changing (aka release date)

The point is....this is a forum for gathering information and asking questions...what he has told us is new information...who else knew that no stores in DC VA have them in stock..first time i heard that.

Should we stop asking questions also so not to offend anyone who may already know tthe answer.

There is what you say and how you say it...both apply to blkbelt and Han

Don't take it personally. Most people here, including the non-vocal majority, appreciate the information. Everyone's just on edge because we've received a lot of disappointing news over the last couple days.

Think of it as throwing a 6 oz. filet at a pack of starving wolves. They aren't going to be satisfied until they get the brontosaurus steak.

I definitely want to see the pics, though!

I saw it, and believed ya. Though it's not like I needed any more proof that it wasn't going to happen.

This whole launch is a cluster. And not because they keep pushing back launch dates. They haven't announced one yet (at least not to the public), so that's not possible. But I think it's pretty clear at this point that it was supposed to launch tomorrow, and then got delayed. So they're seriously screwing things up internally something awful. I'm sure everyone at Verizon is scratching their heads.

Ok, seriously gang, you need to lay off and get off his back. I don't particularly want to read 50 posts of why you feel his information sucks or isn't useful. If it was totally useless, Steven wouldn't be about to post stuff. Like others have said, he's just trying to share with the community. If you don't like what he shares, keep it to your frakking selves and stop jumping on the "let's lambast blkbeltkid17" bandwagon. It'd be different if he was logging in just trying to screw with us or troll, but it really just comes off as bad form to attack someone who feels he's trynig to make a legitimate contribution to the community. Especially considering how many absolutely useless "My CSR said..." posts we've all had to wade through. Some have been useful, some not as much, but it gave the picture that not everyone knows what's going on. And people have been drooling over every damn pic of this phone since day 1, so suddenly getting more shouldn't be a cause for groans.

Thanks, blkbeltkid17. I appreciate the effort to provide your fellow fans info.
