The Official DF Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release Thread

[BenLand150]

Yeah it is. They cut a deal. They want the razr to be the center of attention for as long as possible. You don't bring out a flagship phone only to have become obsolete a few weeks later. They want sales for as long as they can hold off the wolves of nexus.

I'm not to sure. The Nexus has been delayed for numerous reasons. Motorola is gonna sell regardless, if this was the case the Rezound wouldn't be getting as advertised as much as it is. I see that commercial way more than the RAZR commercial. The Nexus is gonna appeal to people interested on it already, while casual phone users are going to go for the RAZR.

We must watch different channels because all I see are Razr commercials, I've only seen the Rezound commercial twice so far. I've probably seen the Razr commercial 30+ times.

I definitely see the RAZR commercial quite a bit. But I swear the Rezound holiday commercial is on every five seconds for. Main channels I'm on are Spike, USA, ESPN, HDnet, and Travel.

I watch ESPN TNT TBS FX ABC Discovery History. Interesting to see the difference in the channels and the phones.

Me too... Must be because I don't (and never have) had TV, so the only commercials are the ones I selectively watch. And I rally don't feel like watching those weird Razr ones! I can't put my finger on who they're trying to copy, all I know is the while spy thing makes me feel like they're trying to appeal to kids playing spies! xD

Swyped and sent through the interwebz directly to you from somewhere and some device that doesn't concern you!

well i live in PA and the guy told me I wasn't . :angry: Doesn't make sense.

I called Verizon again just to make sure there wasn't a mistake, and sure enough the rep informed me that the previous rep I spoke with was "looking at the wrong part of the map" that in fact I was not eligible it's only for the Midwest :angry:

Seriously I haven't seen any yet. Were any of you guys able to pre~order one? How come VZ doesn't show them on their website? The RAZR was on the site weeks in advance when I pre~ordered mine. I will be most surprised if the nexus does come out this week. I think it's a phantom phone you may not actually see until after the first of the year. Meanwhile there will bring quite a few RAZRs found in stockings this Christmas.

Just kidding bud. Verizon hasn't done a single thing to promote this phone yet except for the announcement that it'd be exclusive. Well it is exclusive, only Verizon employees can look/use them

Oh, TBS does definitely show the RAZR a lot when I watch Conan mon-Thursday at 10. Is interesting to see that though. My local channels show it quite a bit too it seems, but I hardly tune into those.

Anyways thanks V8, u just earned me a $100 buckaroos

Don't count on it. They pulled it from the display because Verizon doesn't want it displayed anywhere until it's released.

Iirc, the ones in the store didn't even have a sim card in them, I don't get how that affects Verizon. It's Google's and Samsung's product, not Verizon's.

Probably not since the G-Nex hasn't been officially released yet.
