600 pages, ya'll. Nice work.

I officially have a bruise on my finger from hitting F5. It really hurts.

Ok, that almost made me LOL in this meeting...I think it's probably unwise for me to follow this thread in meetings. People probably see me grinning, then scowling over and over and wonder what the heck is going on with me.

 

[HanSolo]

Should I wait for the 'I Told You So' or we good for now?

Not yet, Stigy, not yet. I texted her asking if it was shipping to stores, to customers (on pre-order or web only) or what?

I am awaiting a response.

My hope meter has gone to a 4.5 for the SGN before next Tuesday.

Shush YOU!

* know one knows I can ninja it*

 

[Ninjak]

I was going to say we're not that important...but remember a few weeks ago when we apparently gossiped about Gnex too much and the whole board shut down for a few hours? And then we heard that VZW was pissed at our thread?

Coincidence?

Ooh! I must have missed that! LOL!

 

[eddie33081]

Shush YOU!

* know one knows I can ninja it*

I'll go ahead and Ninja it. Thank you

Good afternoon everyone. Long time lurker finally entering the light.

I have loved following this thread for the last two months. Thanks to the Mods for their great work keeping us all sane. as if that is possible.

I have silently fist pumped the highs and shed some tears over the lows. My wife thinks I am nuts. She may be right. I mean it is only a phone.

I have been suffering with a 2 year old droid eris that only reboots two or three times a day and can't hardly play my tunes when I'm at the gym. I'm sorry but I need tunes at the gym.

If the Nexus isn't released by this Friday I'm afraid that I will have to go the way of the Rezound short term rental program. Might not be too bad since the Vigor(Rezound) was my initial choice until I found (insert sounds of harps playing) "the Nexus".

Thanks and I will try to share my thoughts when warranted.

Welcome out of hiding!

Pretty interesting to scroll through some of these reports.

I'm in the same boat as you, except I have a Windows Mobile 6.5 Omnia II. I NEED an Android, and I may have to go with a Rezound if the Galaxy Nexus isn't released soon.

Has anyone else read the Distro article on the development of the Atrix? Provides some insist into the process of launching a flagship phone. Can't imagine its too different for VZW

Off topic...

Is that the magnum xl 2000? Love that classic coaster!!!

Classic?! I remember riding it when it was BRAND NEW! LOL....

I believe that is the critter though. Still a blast to ride, and lines are usually really short!

On topic...

...aah I got nothing. Spent. Just release the damn phone already!!!

Nah - they KNOW you have lost it. It's ok though - we all have.

Just got off the phone with Kegan from Verizon Wireless office of the president. We bwgan with a cordial conversation about the Gnex. He said hes excited as well and cant wait for ICS. I asked if he could tell me when we could expect the Galaxy Nexus. He said unfortunately no. The upper execs are keeping that information tight lipped right now. I explained that with the Christmas season approaching, I would like to make plans and save the right amount to purchase it when it comes out. I asked if he could tell me the price point for the phone. Again he said that is not being released but it will be in line with the pricing of current smartphones on sale at Verizon now. We talked for a few more minutes and I asked again about the date only to be shot down again. I stared to hang up when he stopped me and said he noticed that I was due for a $50 discount on my next phone and that he wanted to give me an additional $50 off the Nexus when it comes out. He was making a note on my account and he said that he would call me back as soon as he heard anything. I laughed and said "so I'll know before most everyone else" and he laughed and said I will know when he knows.

All I got.

Feels like yesterday we were jockeying for 20,000. Time flies!

I hope supply is not a problem because I'm test driving a Razr tonight. I just can't deal with having a dumb-phone anymore...and it won't charge. I do hope the phone is released soon, but i won't be able to jump online and order it...I'll have to go in store, return the Razr (if I decide the Gnex is better), and purchase the new phone (plus $35). It all seems smart to me.

Am I missing anything?

I am pretty sure my co-workers think that my head is not screwed on tightly... due to the occassional outburst of laughter!
