Real close to 20K
Will this post be it? And nope. Missed by one, but at least I did not ruin this one like I did 18K :D

I got my upgrade offer back on July 4th. At that time I was set on the bionic but as each rumored ship date was missed and I got increasingly sick of no hard info when the bionic finally did hit I was so annoyed with Motorola I said forget it I'll wait and get the (as it was called then) Nexus Prime.

Remember a month ago when they announced that the "nexus is coming and sooner than we think" I and everyone else here thought it would be tomorrow. So sooner would have been last week.

At this point the battery in my OG Droid is so fried I it drops by 1/2 sitting idle for 10 hours. Rather than buy a battery I'd like to buy a phone and I literally can't wait any longer. I'm gonna take a look at the HTC rezound now. Forget the razor as it's a Motorola product.

Actually my contract is up next week so maybe I should think about taking a look at Sprint now. All these phones are gonna have ICS and they actually do have expandable storage. The only truly unique feature the nexus has is the NFC chip and mainstream use of that thing is still years away.

Awesome first post dude!
 
Just think: every day we get no news is just another day closer to having it in our hands :)

Patience!

EDIT: aurorous, did you even TRY to hit 20,000??? :eek:
Well, congratulations, you did it!

Just think, though, every day that we don't have it in our hands is another day that our souls are unfulfilled and our lives are meaningless....

Any news on preorder or release date today, really dont want to read thru 15 + pages that i missed.

Always go to the end and move backward or you'll never catch up. You may miss a few cat photos and bacon droids and Monty Python jokes but the latest news will find you. Then when you catch up just forward to the end of the 15 pages that were added while you were catching up, and repeat.

EDIT: Otherwise you will be 3 days late to the release =)
 
Okay everyone, I know how to make this phone show up ready to buy in the store in 15 days. Tomorrow, EVERYONE here go get a bionic. After 14 days it will be past your return period and thus, the gnex will be ready for sale :D

dont get the bionic. my 3rd bionic is in the mail and will be here tomorrow.:(
 
i'm still relatively maintaining my patience - but the fact that there's a friggin' GNex ad on every page of this forum is starting to feel a little like taunting...
