The Official DF Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release Thread

[just4747]

You guys sound too fine for what's going on here. I am so utterly pissed off at how Verizon is doing this. We are the last to get this stupid thing and it's taken far far too long now, with not even a piece of information in the meantime. I am so mad at this and there's nothing I or we can do about it. Every week it becomes next week and the week after. I am so strained from waiting for this to happen. It feels like it's been a year of waiting now.

Well my friend who had his mandatory meeting just texted me. he said they were supposed to go on sale tomorrow, but that they have been delayed to a to be determined date for undisclosed reasons.

LAME Verizon LAME

Do u think thats legit? Possibly Verizon corp just TELLING their employees release has been delayed but still release tomorrow?? Man I'm grasping at straws over here...

Preach posted this in another thread and it basically went completely unnoticed. Just another theory to think about:

So my question is, what does everyone thank is more solid, the link of info up above or the radio shack and costco screenshots saying hold it until the 14th. I'm in a dillema here, I was going to take off tomorrow to go buy it but now if I take off and no release then next week id have to take another day and I don't wanna do that. I have days to take so I thought a NEXUS release would be the perfect day. Any suggestions on what most peeps believe is the date?

Id also hate to be a idiot, take off tomorrow and wait for VZWs doors to open and be the only one there, ask them about it and they all look at me like I'm dumb. I mean VZW people thinking ur dumb, that could be the worse feeling ever haha.

I'd say wait and see how the day plays out with more info sure to come today. So annoying. Then make the command decision.

I have a feeling there will be a handful of people on this site tomorrow who were lucky enough to walk into the right VZW premium retailer, costco, or BB store who either didn't get the memo or who got greedy when someone walked into their store with $300 cash in their hand and said "screw it" and sold them the phone. Whether or not they will be able to activate that device is another story....

I bet they are not halting the sales of razrs and rezounds because of some 4g issue. It has to be something else

Yeah only problem with that is I need to give some kind of notice before tomorrow and I really don't think were gonna get much news today if its true that VZW is just keeping it underwraps.

The people that emailed the executives and got a response back yesterday needs to get back with us and let us know what they have been told.

Heard the delay is due to a leak of info. This is from vzw employees. Not sure if i really believe that or not but thought i would share.

Wake up people!! This is the cause of the delay!!!!!Moto has had a long relationship with VZW, the RAZR isnt doing do well and they want to get rid of them before this beast is out. Its sales 101, sell what you got!

I sent 2 yesterday and didn't get any replies. It was expected

 

[Diab210]

at this point I refuse to buy a razr or rezound purely on principle.

It may be "sales 101" but people aren't going to listen to you when you start of with "wake up people" and provide zero sources or justifications besides profit margins. You end up coming off sounding more like a conspiracy theorist or someone who thinks "the man" is out to get them. Not trying to insult you by any means, just pointing out why no one is going to listen to you or "wake up".

Hey don't bring the Rezound into this, it's just the innocent bystander - not like VZW's been pushing it hard either...
