AndroidForums.com update -

Our dev team is hard at work on the hidden side of things here at the forums. We are aware of the slow updates and duplicate posts many are experiencing, and they're working hard at it.

Your patience is totally appreciated. :)

Stop communicating the progress with us....we're gonna get spoiled, and expect multi-billion dollar companies do the same:p

Both Verizon stores I went to today said they had stock but both also said that they were threatened with "dire consequences" if they even broke the seals on the shipments. That was one reseller and one corporate store.
I went to both because the reseller didn't even have a mock up for me to hold. Geez. And he was trying to sell me a razr even as I was leaving. Crazy guy said he would be worried about no external sd card slot on the nexus but he has no problem with nonreplaceable battery on the razr?

Just talked to a CSR at the Minneapolis skyway corporate store. After asking him if they would be selling the Nexus tomorrow he responded "I am not able to give you any information regarding the release of that phone, HOWEVER, if I were you I would be here tomorrow morning when we open...if that tells you anything..."

Looks like I'll be downtown at 7am tomorrow morning rockin sweatpants and a smile.

Pretty much exact to what I was told at my local corp.

I just had my local rep at a corporate store give me a call and set up an appointment for tomorrow when they open up at 9am. He is actually off today but got the word for the launch and gave me a call. Seems like a real stand-up guy. I am trying to keep my excitement to low roar right now just in case something does come up to in fact delay the launch for the umpteenth time. I will still keep the faith if it does get delayed and I will be getting this when it does launch. As it looks, so far, tomorrow is out victory day!! Here's hoping that it comes to fruition!!


Yes, I am quoting myself here. LOL. I just got a call back from the same guy at the corporate store that I set up my appointment with and he did in fact warn me that while the launch is still looking like it is a go that it is not %100 set in stone yet. He said that he did not see it actually getting pushed again but there is always that possibility especially with this phone. Just sharing what I have learned with all of you. Here's to still hoping for the best and we can all get our Nexus tomorrow!!

I feel a bit bad over missing out on release day for the TP.

We could have had something special, TP. Now we'll never know.

I weep for the abortion that was our relationship.


why Han, what up with the TP. i'm waitinjg for that also. But can't follow that right now. is it a no go or something???? (last i heard was the 19th)

So I flat out told my boss I'm coming in late tomorrow AND I'm using it as a sick day. So I'll be at work for any problems that HAVE to be dealt with but don't have to do much else. Yes, I know it's strange but since I'm the only one who does my job its easier to do it this way than to catch up Friday. :D

Anybody in the Pittsburgh area find a place that confirmed tomorrow? I stopped in a Best Buy (McKnight) and a nice rep showed me the accessories but said they have no phones to her knowledge and expect a release next week... and I called a corporate store (also McKnight) and a RadioShack and they said early next week too.

The radioshack in the Waterworks plaza confirmed it for me on Monday or Tuesday (I believe that's when it was). I'm heading to the Verizon corp store at the Pittsburgh Mills though to see if I can possibly get the $100 3g/4g discount.

I woke up at 4am last night thinking about the Nexus. I never did get back to sleep. From here on out I'm going on nothing but faith and hope that tomorrow will finally make the Nexus a reality.

I woke up yesterday at around 8AM... I proceeded to stay up until around 8AM this morning (roughly 24 hours give or take, I was groggy, lol). I then slept from 8ish until 1PM and will be up now for the duration. I can't imagine going to sleep and accidentally waking up at 11AM and kicking myself all the way to VZW, only to realize they sold out an hour ago. It'd be like a bad dream and I'm NOT risking it, lol..
