We're blowing up over 1 Rumor. Take a step back from the ledge until we hear a little more confirmation on the matter.

Keep Calm and Chive On.

You realize all these dates are just rumors right? Until we hear from verizon the 15th holds no more water than any other date. My confidence in the 15th has fallen from 2% to 1%. When Verizon announces a date, it'll go up to 50%. When I have it in my hand and activated, only then will it be 100%.

I've been trying to get the $100 3G to 4G bonus by calling CSR's, 3 so far have turned me down. I'm going to keep trying, but also wanted to try to live chat, but can't find where to start one on the web site. Does anybody know where to go to do this?

I have also tried twice and was declined, I live in West MI. They claim it isn't in our area:(

See, now you are being too optimistic... OTD, and Cincy both had it in their hand and activated, and you see how that turned out... ;) Should be 100% when you walk out of the store with it.

Ooops, forgetting OT header... Thanks for reminding me.

Off-Topic - Potty Training

Did this for three weeks. no progress. Just lots and lots of puddles and other things. Actually letting her run naked has been the most successful, she won't go unless she has something to catch it. She will go all day with no accidents, using the potty, but the moment you put underwear on her to go somewhere, you have a mess. She knows what to do, she knows when she has to go, she just doesn't care.

It took my son months to get it. But I hear you, its frustrating. Mine would be fine at guests but when we were home he would let loose. At least he was being polite ;)

Sounds like your daughter is good in theory but not in practice. That what I say about my son about doing things he isnt allowed to do.

Good morning Nexians -- potentially two more days until launch. If you think about it, when we wake up tomorrow the phone will be released tomorrow. Crazy, huh?! I can't believe we have made it this far.

Preparing my farewell post to you all. I can't wait to chat with you all in our lounge thread when this finally closes.

Morning!



Yeah, she is independant to say the least. She is a pistol, just like her mama. But also can be as cute and sweet as sugar. I can tell I am gonna be in BIG trouble with her ;)


Sounds like me! Teehee. I am the one your mother warned you about. Sounds like your wife has that trait as well.

Good Morning Gnexers!

So NOW what's new? Waiting on an OTA release? Which may or may not be ready Thursday morning?

I tell ya, this has got to be the most cadorficized taffy-pull of a phone launch in history. Everything that can go wrong HAS. And possibly WILL.

The thin ice of hope I'm treading for Thursday is starting to crack under my feet... somebody throw me a rope!


Morning. *here's a rope* hang on a little bit more


This is all Scott's fault somehow.


I'm gonna stick up for him. I love Scoptimism




It's funny. Despite being burned by missed dates these past several weeks, I still remain cautiously optimistic it'll happen sooner than what skeptics are thinking.

I guess I like pain!


There is a fine line between pleasure and pain......

This morning I noticed the GNex web ads are back instead of the google wallets ads. They were all over the place when the release date was the 9th and then the disappeared once that didnt happen. Guess google thinks it may be released thurs/fri?!?

Those depend more on your search history than anything else. As soon as I began looking up NFC and Google Wallet, all my ads weht that way. Then last night I was searching for Deuter backpacks and, guess what?!?

Even then, they might call you and want it back. Just ask SamMax:)

Edit: I think 100% is only after you have traded your GNex for your new phone.

I just bought SlideIt Keyboard for $.10. When I went to Android Market and it asked me which phone I wanted to install it on I noticed they have my Galaxy Nexus listed. Sooooo close, yet so far.

For me it's this week or bust.

At this point, it will be a very short lived flagship phone. Practically outdated by the time it finally shows up! :eek:

Quad core is just around the corner. I waited this l long, I can wait a bit longer. My phone is fine.

I wanted the latest, greatest most shiney new toy. This one is starting to feel a bit tarnished.

You're right! If he had just added that the activation and being in his hands was occuring on official launch day, that would have covered his 100% rating...

You tried bribes? My neice was apparently the same way. She knew what to do but she wouldn't do it. They tried making her sit on the potty on a regular basis until she would go, but she never would. The second she came off the potty she went. They eventually told her that every time she used the potty she got a treat or ____(insert bribe here). A couple of weeks of that and she was good to go.
