Chuck Norris ain't got s*** on Big Ben.

Big Ben was was dropped twice as a baby.. Once on Hiroshima and once on Nagasaki.

OT Football/snark:

So he's both Fat Man and Little Boy? I see. That explains sooo much, his antics almost make sense...

Okemo - I see you're reppin old school Never Summer. Big fan of the graphic on the Heritage this year, bringing back the flag logo and adding on a matte finish with a minimalist design. Very nice touch to a great board.

Nice... I've always wanted to ride VT.

Nope.. not an old school

Limited edition white version of this years Heritage with a red bottom with the white eagle

Only have 4 days on it but absolutely love it!!

Maybe Verizon wants to release the gnex and moto tablet on the same day to round out their 4g lineup for the holidays? They seem to be making a big push to get people onto 4g devices now, so who knows

Good evening all. Been busy most of the day, but thought I'd drop by for the nightly Midnight Rocky Horror Picture Show - just in case.

To answer your question Cincy - yes, I'll order online since I'm not going to be near another VZW store for the next few days.

You been flyin the skies

where to?

Puchkey · Dec 8, 2011

if Verizon made the Gnex available at midnight, and made an announcement that they secretly made plans for all their corporate stores to be open immediately at Midnight...

How many of you would be looking for your keys?

Sorry, can't be happy for the rapist, I get pleasure out of his injuries. It's amazing that Big Ben is a hero and Tiger Woods is the scum of the earth. Tiger's ladies were all willing.

The first time, OK, maybe it was an attention whore...second time, and we're looking at a pattern.

And yet he was never found guilty... grow up. Being happy for someone getting injured is real mature. That's all I'm going to say on it because people with your mindset really strike a nerve with me.

Back to Nexus discussion.

Josh K: Hello. Thank you for visiting our chat service. May I help you with your order today?
Jeff: Hi. I wanted to order the Galaxy Nexus tonight.
Josh K: While we appritiate your tenacity for our newest and brightest innovative technology, but at this time, all reports on the Galaxy Nexis being released for pre-order today is false, please check back at any time to check the website for updates.You can also put your email in here...(Register ?

Jeff: thanks!

The part in red popped up IMMEDIATELY after I typed my question. It is most certainly a copy paste. Seems they are a bit prepared for us.

Sort of like the "we have no info, or it will be out before the end of the year lol"

Here's the question. IF and it's a gigantic IF at midnight the google.com/nexus site or Verizon Wireless begins selling the Nexus WILL YOU BUY IT or will you wait and see if they are in stores tomorrow. You know you can get it by Monday if you buy it online tomorrow. OR if you risk it and wait, you may not be able to get it at all.

What will you do?

Order the little focker!!!
I'm normally one for instant gratification BUT I want to know its coming rather than worry about getting to a store and all you other Jerseyians buying them.

SolidOrange, signing out. fingers crossed for my trip to VZ in the morning. if i don't walk out with a GNex, maybe corporate will have at least pulled the gag order off their employees.

Goodnight Nexicans!

G'nite!!

I get the Nexus love, I really do. I was afflicted with it from mid October until late November myself. But do yourself a favor and at least go to a store and check out a ReZound or Razr and ask yourself, honestly, " could THIS be my phone for the next twenty months?". You might be surprised by your own answer, especially where the HTC Device is concerned...

Just tryin to help...........

Ah - we have the black one in my shop, didn't know they had a white one. I don't know if they did, but I could see them doing that for CO only though. Don't bother going to VT...just stick to the Rockies and your real mountains

Still waiting for the season to start out here sadly...and for my new set up to come in.

I could do that, but then I'd be pissed once the Nexus releases knowing that I could have had a better phone.

Horrendous spelling and grammar, that definitely sounds like Verizon. They should be embarrassed.

Holy crap, that's straight out of some sort of low budget psycho thriller horror movie.

Pretty bad spelling for a canned answer though.

Back to Nexus discussion.

Keep reading, I clarified later.

Let me re-phrase...I don't care to see anyone get hurt...it's just that, I would like to see him out of football. I don't think people like that should be rewarded with fame and millions of dollars. Hell, he may end up in the hall of fame and his "legacy" live on forever, when, IMHO, he should be rotting in a jail cell somewhere in middle GA.

OJ wasn't convicted (errr, well, of murdering his wife and her man), Casey Anthony wasn't convicted. I'm sure Han will tell you that there are many guilty people who are not convicted every day. The system (and God Bless America) is set up so that it's better for a guilty bastard to go free than for an innocent man to be imprisoned for a crime they did not commit.

I don't know. I liken my relationship with the Galaxy Nexus to a SMOKING hot girl that is always so flirty and fun when you see her but she will never go out on an actual date with you. Eventually you realize that you are so emotionally invested in the idea of dating her that you can't just walk away until she either goes out with you OR she tells you flat out that you mean nothing to her.

I think the Nexus is nearly there on both fronts.

Lol I will be at the conant store at 9am, then over to the reseller on McCord, in spring meadows, then best buy, then radio shack. Figure I can hit everything I need in like 30 mins before work at 9:30

Kristopher: How can I help you tonight?
Matt: Hello!
Matt: I was hoping to order the Galaxy Nexus!
Kristopher: Keep hoping, it's not tonight. Sorry.

Sheesh, he was nice, till he told me to "keep hoping". Damn, that was harsh! LOL

I have...and I have been thoroughly unimpressed by both. At this point, it's absolutely worth at least waiting so you can compare all three rather than jump the gun on an R phone after waiting this long.

Side note - what's with all the people the past few days that have been pushing the Razr/Rezound and saying things like, guys, it's so not worth it, I'm jumping to {insert "lesser" phone here}. It's like Verizon has people in here trying to push the other devices, hoping some of us will breakdown and go for something else.

Have you held all Three in your hands...not dummy units...but the actual phone...well i've held all three powered on and running as normal...the Galaxy Nexus wins hands down...i've been waiting for this pre-october when the rumors of the "Droid Prime" were out...i had 5 or so minutes with the Galaxy Nexus yesterday and i'm EXTREMELY glad i decided to wait and will continue to do so!!!
