Sorry to bump this, but the thread is moving at break neck speed and I'm really hoping someone out there might have an answer.

Accessory discounts:

My local Authorize retailer claims to sell acc. in a bundle for a discount when I guy a phone (Nexus )

Corporate takes a certain percentage off each acc. when buying a phone.

What about telesales? I may just end up buying this over the phone but am not sure if they will offer any accessory discounts.

Does anyone know if they do or not? Any experience?

I just went into my corporate verizon store. Spoke with district manager nexus is out tomorrow unless they change something at last minute. Plenty of stock, no appointment neccessary.

OT:

So we watched a bit of Boardwalk Empire last night, the first episode. Seems pretty cool so far. I didn't know it was set in the 1920's. I love period shows and movies. If I had known that, I think I would've watched it since the beginning.

The only period drama I can't stand is Spartacus. And I love roman-themed shows (like Rome). I can't get into that one.

BOARDWALK EMPIRE was awesome!! The season finale was amazing! Do you have HBO on demand? That's how I watch it.

This will most likely be the last day this thread is open (for the full day) as it will be closed tomorrow if when the Samsung Galaxy Nexus is released. I just want to take a moment and remind everyone about the forum rules and guidelines. Please be nice and respectful to your fellow members. Nobody wants to be put on a No-Posting probation this close to launch.

Due to the incredible amount of traffic the site is receiving right now there may be some database errors throughout the day. Servers can only handle so much. Please try to avoid double or triple posting content during one of these times.

Also, please remember that the Razr is an Android phone and while some of you may not be interested in it, there is a forum full of people here that are. There is no reason to bash the phone or anyone that uses it.

Last, as I've said quite a number of times. If you see a problem post please please please report the post and don't quote or comment on it.

Thank you

I wish you all a merry Nexmus and happy new gear.

I hear LouAnne and think of the poor woman from Sons of Anarchy.

I think of the Senator's daughter from "Shag".

Please tell me other guys have seen that movie. Uh, anyone?

My local corporate store said that there was no news and no release tomorrow. She said she would have heard about it.

Others, here, say yes. I'm hoping for the latter.

My store sez the same thing, I want to go down there and bitch slap somebody.

Long time lurker, first time poster. I just had the corporate store in Spanish Fort, AL (on Mobile Bay in Southern Alabama) confirm that they have a "few" in stock and will be able to sell them tomorrow. I'll definitely be there at 9 when the store opens.

After having a OD (ordered on the first day it was available in Nov 09) I am ready for this phone! I had a one year contract on the Droid, knowing that something great would be available in a year or so. I followed the rumors in late 2010 that a great phone from Motorola would be announced at CES 2011 in January, which of course turned out to be the much-delayed Bionic. Finally we're here at the Galaxy Nexus, and I sure hope the wait was worth it! With the rate this technology is advancing, I still would do a one-year contract if it were still available. I do think the Nexus will be the best phone of the current crop to have for two years, however.

Many thanks to all the posters who have keep us up-to-date and entertained. I noticed I have given over 500 thanks before my first actual post! I also became a premium member because I really appreciate the job Phandroid and Android Forum do.

Do you guys think it will be sold out by lunch tomorrow? I was planning on getting it during my break.

I can tell you that I called 2 stores in my area and one said they had 15 phones. The other said 20 to 30. They say its first come, first serve.

so I would call and see if they can tell you how many phones they have and base your plans on that.

Anyone know the rule for employee's getting phones before customers?

Uh oh.

The Galaxy Nexus is still on track to launch this year. We will definitely send a press release to announce availability. Feel free to visit www.verizonwireless.com/galaxynexus to sign up for email alerts to be one of the first to know.Corporate PRVerizon Wireless

Doesn't seem like the words of a company about to launch a device the following day, does it?

Steven with the double post and bad news! FAIL!

I hope it isn't true though

Grendil · Dec 14, 2011

They didn't say the phone would be not be sold in some stores before the press release went out.

statepenn03 · Dec 14, 2011

Um, tomorrow is still this year guys and girls. The fact that they FINALLY said something about it though should be reason to be excited, not sad, I have a really good feeling about tomorrow.
