Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

halon · Sep 5, 2014

I'll get it at best buy, or whoever has a longer return policy, and try it out.

halon · Sep 5, 2014

Wow. From Harrisburg to Pittsburgh you can't walk into Best Buy to purchase the 360. All they said was select stores. Must be NYC, Chicago and L.A.? Express shipping will get it to you on Tuesday.

halon · Sep 5, 2014

Well. So much for walking into a store today and buying the 360. I really don't understand Motorola's handling of this release?

lunatic59 · Sep 5, 2014

I tried logging into to their website for the 360 earlier and kept getting a server error. :rolleyes:

Good luck to us finding it.

There's a ton of BBs in the area and none have it in stock. I peaked in our local one and nothing. An open box Gear Fit though. :rolleyes:

halon · Sep 5, 2014

Even Chicago BB couldn't get any. Man. Did they ever fail, hard.

The_Chief · Sep 5, 2014

SNAGGED!

I fought for it, too: refreshing three tabs (Play, Motorola and BB) hoping ONE of them wouldn't be overloaded. BB finally behaved long enough for me to complete the transaction.

But like you guys are saying: you think they'd be in stock in Nashville or even Murfreesboro, where there are TONS of people? Nope. I had to make a 4-hour round trip to a small store in humble little Hixson, Tennessee to pick mine up. WHY Moto decided to stock BB's smaller stores just baffles me.

But pick it up I did, and it's getting settled into home on my wrist as I attempt to sort it out and understand the thing.

Congrats Chief.

Congrats, Chief! Let us know how it's going.

~~Police report~~ Pics, or it didn't happen, Chief.

breadnatty08 · Sep 6, 2014

Going to repurpose the kegerator today and make some soda.

Haven't homebrewed in years and the thing just sits there so may as well put it to some use!
If we can find hibiscus, definitely a lime/hibiscus soda and then perhaps a lemon basil.

I'd get one if they came with a steel bracelet instead of the leather band.

$50 worth of gas and 6 hours of driving for $250 worth of tech ... now there's commitment.

Where are you driving to and what for?

halon · Sep 6, 2014

Had to go to Lancaster, PA and settle for silver. Just missed on the black.

I understand that there is a way to use 22mm wristbands, but danged if I see it. I think this is it.

Watch is at 42% at mid-day. I might make it to bedtime... but I just ordered a Qi charging mat ($14) to sit next to my laptop. That way I'm not worried about it.

You forgot $22.40 in tolls for PA Turnpike. I did have $20 in BB rewards. Here's a little tip....go to the post and get the packet they give out for moving, there's a coupon inside for 10% off at BB.

I'm standing in line at Sheetz next to a husband and wife. The wife looks at my watch and comments on how she likes it. I tell them what it is and touch the screen and they both loved it. The husband again asks the name. I told him and he said "that's a phone?". Ugh.

Don't think I'll be bothering with an Android Wear, think it depends too much on being online and using Google Now in its current form. I'll wait for the Googleless PRC editions.

breadnatty08 · Sep 7, 2014

They don't have knock offs yet, Mike?

Edit: Not a kirf, well pretty much a Pebble rip off, but looks not bad.

And if that 3 week battery life is real, that's incredible!

mikedt · Sep 7, 2014

Mooncakes!

Happy mid-autumn festival.

360 looks to be a bit too big for my taste. I'll wait til the 2nd or 3rd generation.
