So, anyone that signed up for it, have you received any sort of email from Verizon touting the Nexus? I know I haven't and wanted to see if I was the exception or the rule.

I just don't understand. Why bother providing such a system, if you have no intentions of using it. I know this isn't the first time they have done this.

I got the Nexus notification about two hours AFTER I successfully placed my order online with VZW.

Derp!

I have only 2 comments...

1. Got it!
2. LOVE IT!

I'll be back for the closing statements.

Called again a minute ago to try and get my upgrade date moved from next December.
explained I was a long time customer who left for 3 or 4 months and came back. Told them to check my bill it is unlimited everything (hefty amount) and always paid 2 weeks early and I always keep at least a $50 credit on it.

Also advised the rep I have bought 3 phones in the last 5 months at full retail. After a brief hold she came back and told me I could purchase at full retail or add a line. I told her I don't need another line so she recommended the trade in program. I told her I am already doing that with my 3 month old Revolution and 2 month old Charge. Both were over $600 a piece and Verizon was kind enough to offer me $92 and $75 respectively.

WOW!

So no docks at the corp store I purchased from this AM - just over-priced cases and screen protectors.

Any one else get a dock?

This is my very first thing I am doing with my brand new Nexus!!!! They are so twisted they may have flown right off!!

Android is Upgrading

It was nice to see nexusprimepls and acousticrx at the store. I was first in line and received the first flawed phone. They tried to give me one with a scratch on it. Replaced and I am now VERY happy

When Verizon hands you the box, is the LTE sim already installed, or do you need to get that separate from Verizon?

AntimonyER · Dec 15, 2011

Oh my goodness, that was a nightmare. Verizon had to make everything as difficult as possible, but I finally got my phone. It was worth everything. I couldn't use the living social deal (had too many discounts), so will have to get a dock or something else with it before the end of the year. But I LOVE the phone. BTW, got update immediately upon activating.

It's separate and you have to install it.

I saw my first GNex TV commercial while watching Good Day New York this morning. Talk about no advance advertising for this phone..it amazes me they just put it right out there with no hoopla!

My phone says this almost every time I turn it back on. It's not upgrading firmware. But I do think it's an unusual message to keep seeing. Is the OTA Update available to you, yet?

Dubbin1 · Dec 15, 2011

Had a blast waiting in line with about 6 other people, got the extended battery for 50% off plus another 25% off from a work discount.

woodraskam · Dec 15, 2011

In the vow store. Impatiently waiting for my turn

This_Is_Kyle · Dec 15, 2011

I'd like to hear from the people in here - how does the phone feel?

I'm pretty sure I saw Stigy.

bp08 · Dec 15, 2011

Got my Nexus today . . Told him about the 3g to 4g discount.. I also told him their was a note from the CSR, and he noticed it, but didn't understand the note because the CSR I talked to yesterday seemed new and the note did not make sense. He also told me it expired in November, and his manager said it wouldn't work. blah

Anyways, I got a free screen protector, case, and car charger and then the 299.99 phone!

How'd you get the 50% off the extended battery?

woodraskam · Dec 15, 2011

Anyone know the details on th accessories? 50% off?

bjanow · Dec 15, 2011

52 minutes to go before the RS opens. Starting to get butterflies since they only have one is stock with my name on it. If the manager has a good friend who wants one I think I might be screwed and will need to head over to the atrocious vzw corp store. I'm just typing here cause I don't know what else to do. I'm already manscaped, dressed, and took the next hour off work. Why am I so nervous, this is nuts! Maybe I'll head over to the root thread and know exactly what I'm going to do first.

mastervm · Dec 15, 2011

2 hours to go and I'm antsy. Thank you all for helping me keep my sanity this past month!
