The Official DF Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release Thread

[prowler85]

YES! although, I'll keep mine around in case something unfortunate happens to my Lexus. Yes, my Nexus already has a name.

Technically, I have a Bionic, but when I get my "Lexus" my son gets my Bionic....so his D1 goes to the graveyard. Which in this case is a backup for when my 21 yr old daughter drops her DX , it skids across the cool deck, and slides into the pool. Figure that happens in January, February at the latest.

how much notice do you think we will be given before the release?

 

[doublea500]

none whatsoever

I love this thread. Leave for 3 hours and have 10 pages to catch up on. I think on a thread per minute calculation we beat the Thunderbolt.

Though the TB had something the Nexus doesn't.....it was the first VZW 4G phone!

You can fix that by changing your posts per page settings. I have mine set way high. That way, I leave for an hour and only have one page to catch up on.

If i were to trade in my Droid 1 for a discount on the nexus-

$16...

lets see what i could buy with $16-
-16 mentos packs
-a t-shirt
-few packs of craisins...

so to verizon, my droid 1, that i bought for $200, is now worth a $16 tshirt.

1 more thing, on https://www.trade-in.vzw.com/AppraisalPage.aspx

galaxy nexus is listed $140....

and for those who want to return a galaxy nexus, that has not even been released, that not only does not turn on but has a cracked screen as well-

$1.40 Way to be cheap verizon.

also, how do you know if the display works if the screen doesnt power on?

 

[BenLand150]

LOL! You got offered more than I did for my OG Droid when I got the Droid 3. 9 bucks in store.

 

[ilikemoneygreen]

wtf? ... This thread is alive. grown big time.

I'm just as desperate as you guys, but when I callez vzw today about my bill, and asked about the nexus, the nice lady said she was waiting for one too, and also said she now has an extra tab on her screen for nexus questions (when getting a question about it they note it), which only appears very close to a release.
Also, in some weird sorta cosmic coincidence, I get my extra $50 discount on the 15th. But if it gets released Sunday, all in.

I propose a national punk Verizon day.

If the phone is not released on the 15th....thousands of us should walk into a Verizon store....pretend you are wanting to buy the razr. Make the attendant walk to back and get one...bring it out to you....wait till they open the package and say....psych I'm waiting for nexus ....later.

They will have hoards of opened razrs lol. A friend must record and upload to YouTube

My gypsy Hungarian girlfriend told me that she had a vision wile taking a nap this afternoon, she told me that the phone will be released in the 7th day of this week,but only if nobody posts in this thread between the closest dawn-dusk cycle to arrive. Then she dis some weird calculations and told me she can't see the outcome if any posts are made.
We are doomed, we will never see this phone.

I call BS. Hungarians are KNOWN to be weak at math.

If the phone is released on Sunday, and you buy it then instead of on Thursday, I will find where you live, go there, and smack you in the back of the head. C'mon, free fifty bucks. Wait four days.

 

[9wire]

But if somebody offered it 4 days early for $50, I dunno...gotta check the mail, see if I got the $100 flyer. $150 is nice, buy another present for the kids.

Greetings, from CT too. We should go to the same Verizon store and tag team the employees for our Nexi.
