***Official Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release speculation thread**

From reading the text on the VZW chart, it does seem more like an advertisement schedule and the target of that schedule is the Christmas season.

100% agreed.

Granted all of the information we have had so far has been rumors and speculation, our insider has given us dates that made it seem like Verizon was ready to launch this thing. Something is definitely going on -- whether its just a supply issue or more than that. :mad:

Me too, which is why I am going to pre-order as soon as possible and hope for a ninja release and getting it early, but quietly. (Although I won't be quiet when I get it).
 
Sorry guys, but I'm actually hoping for 11/28. I'll be on vacation til 11/20 and won't have anyone home to get a preorder either, so I'll feel a *lot* better if I'm actually around when this thing releases.
 
Which Black Friday is this then? >.>

Rather, when? I was under the impression a Black Friday happened on a 13th.

I'm not up to date on strange American customs.

That's another way to interpret the image.

I guess the only way to confirm is wait for Thursday's Rezound announcement for a release date. If it matches up with the above graphic I will believe its a release schedule.

But that seems like a long time (3rd - 14th) without any advertisement for the Rezound.

Especially since the Rezound has already showed up in VZ in-store advertising.

My secret insider source met up with me in an undisclosed location and whispered:

Om nom nom nom... Om nom nom? Om, nom nom, nom nom nom!

Apparently, this means that there may or may not be supply problems, obstinate VZW management, or Steve Jobs coming back from the dead as an iZombie.

Taking in consideration the valuable whispers of my secret insider source, GN will either be released on the 17th of November or some other date.

I am relieved that we now know more than we used to know.

Yeah forgot about that as well -- good catch.

Maybe it's a release and advertising schedule at the same time?

Not even color coded to help decode it.

Guess only time will tell (or more inside info). :p
 
I'm starting to feel that Bionicky rage building up again, and I don't want it to. But it's building.

If this is just a marketing plan, which it appears to be (given the Monday dates), who knows when we'll see it. I think it's set up to be touted as an X-mas phone, giving as much room to their stupid golden-haired babies as possible.

Freaking Verizon. It figures that the best phone is the one pushed off as long as possible.

I think those are advertising dates. I think we will see in store releases on 11/10 (RAZR), 11/17 (Rezound) and 12/01 (SGN). All of these dates will be preceeded by announcements and advertising the same way that the RAZR was announced.
 
After all this jerking around, I think the SGN will be my last phone with Verizon. In 2 years AT&T will have their LTE network expanding out nicely, and they've always offered superior quality phones before Verizon.

I think I'm getting off the spikey torture chair after this one.
 
God i hate Verizon, if it wasn't for LTE and unlimited data I'd be gone. Lets see if they push it into December when Sammy intros the GSIII to be released in EUR and Asia Q1 2012
 
Don't we already HAVE a rumors thread? Lemme check.. Yeah, we do. Gonna merge this.

After logging on the other day and noticing that I've used less than 600 MB of data in 15 days, unlimited data is looking less and less like a sticking point to me.

Weeks to go? I suppose I shouldn't bother checking this forum anymore for a while...

In the whole time I since I got my OG Droid, I have never gone over 2GB of data. And I listen to a fair amount of Slacker. My wife barely tips 500MB. She uses just enough not to qualify for the 300MB plan.
