The Official DF Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release Thread

[Trusstopher]

So hopefully you guys know that I am not the kind of person that would come in here and troll everyone and would only communicate info if I thought it had any merit to it...well:

A member of the DF team has been contacted by someone associated with VZW who had a bit of additional information with respect to the release of the G-Nex. In an effort to maintain a degree of separation between the source, their contact and the leaking of this information, we have stepped through a few levels of separation to avoid any info-to-source association. The contact (who is definitely more than just a store rep.) stated that the internal current slated release date is now December 13th. No gauntness can be made that this date will not change, but that is the current target.....


And that's all I got. Take it for what it's worth.

To add to this, another member of the DF leadership team was just contacted by a trusted Costco insider who informed us that the phone will be $289 (which we pretty much already knew) on December 14th.

So releases at VZ on Dec 13 then releases Dec 14 at Costco? Or your update is saying they both release on Dec 14? sorry, gots to get it right BTW i wonder why its not on the 12.... why wait another day?

Funny I was just contacted by my boss who informed me I need to get my butt back to work instead of worrying about when this phone will release.

My 3G is working just fine, in Minneapolis

Go buy a fancy new 4G phone and see how yer signal looks! New phone/radio but a step back in effectiveness!

Maybe the bosses around the U.S. are starting to see everyone slack and are going to hound VZW to get it moving. :biggrin: we can only hope. :icon_ devil:

Just called my two local Verizons. One is in a BJs and the guy said the internet rumors were for tomorrow but no date set yet.
The other, a full real Verizon standalone store, the girl said we will be selling it but no date set yet. I said "oh, so not tomorrow?" and she's like "well we usually don't find out until the day of so not sure at this point". I asked if they had the devices yet and she said no, but who knows if that's true. She said best bet would be to call back tomorrow at 9.

Dont feed the Bionic troll taking a break from defending his phone..

Huh? Im not defending my phone at all...it doesn't need defending. I was simply letting all know to lighten up a bit. The phone will be out shortly.

I'm pretty sure that screen shot is a few days old, from before the delay.

Could be wrong though.

We had one source telling one of our staff about it while DGStorm was already posting it from where he found it from.

What colors? I'm in NOVA as well. Could be a simple handoff.

I'm going to use my matte black one, and my argyle case when they get in. But I would have no problem letting go of the smoke one =] Inbox me if you want to meet up.

Ok, so I got a call from Verizon about my email.

Surprise, surprise, no info on the release date. Just a lot of apologizing. Sorry guys.

Need to tell them sorry doesn't replace your old dying Droid phone but a 100.00 credit would go a long way to helping
