Its been all quiet. Which is why Im not wasting time with these carriers and just purchasing at the playstore. Im tired of the cloak and dagger nonsense.

I keep refreshing the playstore and I keep refreshing motorola.com neither has it up for pre-order. Wait and see, it'll go live at 12:00 a.m. PST and by the time I get up tomorrow morning it will be sold out.:mad:

I'm going to be really pissed if I pre-order and then find out Verizon is pulling some nonsense and only activating "their" N6. Fingers crossed...

For that matter, didn't we know when Maguro was released that Verizon would have their own? In this case, we simply don't know. So I hope that means the Play Store version will work fine and they'll activate it on Verizon. Or Google's going to have a LOT of returns (or Verizon is going to lose a lot of customers who decide to just activate their Play Store N6 on a different carrier).

No Best Buy links yet? does this mean I wont be able to order through BestBuy.com?

The nexus 9 was, and still is available for pre-order. I hope the Nexus 6 is as well.

Surely they wont have only the Play Store, and Only outright buyers able to pre-order. If that is the case, I look for alot of people to hold off until carrier subsidies, or financing is made available. I personally want to use my Best Buy CC. I would love to order today, but who knows, and at what time?

Motorola does financing. But no word if you can preorder thru them?

I am officially ready. I have one laptop on each floor checking for updates to key webpages and they will alert me when a change has been made. I also have some key pages being refreshed every 5 seconds so they are ready for me when the alarm goes off. This technique hasn't let me down the last two Nexus releases.

Google's shipping practices, now they have let me down. I have yet to be in the first 3 waves of shipments even though I guarantee I am one of the first few (first 25 easy) to get an order placed.

For those on Verizon. If Verizon passed on NexSix, what would get instead? Turbo, Z3v? Other?

I was thinking Z3v until NexSix was confirmed. That Turbo is interesting though.


If for some reason Big Red passes on the nexus, it would be the Droid Turbo for me....hands down (between the 2 you mentioned anyway). For me though, I would need to take a look at the Note 4 before making a decision.

Would be cool if you cats put up "Pacific", "Eastern " time, etc. when listing times... :)

Up thread it was posted that someone thought it would be 9 AM PST, though I'm thinking they would have meant PDT. Anywhoo, that's 11 AM for me as something I had scheduled from 10-12 just got shortened down an hour. Was on the fence about this due to price (size doesn't bother me) but will be pulling the trigger to replace my late, lamented, dropped it on the kitchen floor Nexus N4. Will also allow my wife to evaluate if it's too big for her use while she continues to use her still working just fine N4 (and looking forward to Lollipop on that).
