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

"unconfirmed" from the HTC blogging,

a "source" said 11/14 for the Rezound

so that would put

11/10 - RAZR
11/14 - Rezound
11/17 - GN
 
And Kellex just tweeted that he's still hearing the 14th for ReHound.

I hope his prediction pans out to include SGN for 17th.

Although, his release date for RAZR (10th) is technically inaccurate, now that VZ decided to do the gimmick 11/11/11 thing. That shows you how quick release dates can change. :(

Okay, my new plan is: if there is no pre-order, I will drive up to the Big City (for my dental appointment :( ) early and be at the Verizon store at 8:40 AM. Get a virgin Nexus, fire it up myself, activate it, do the paperwork, and get on to the appointment! YAYYYYY

The KILLER will be having a brand new Nexus and spending an hour in a dental chair, unable to play with it! :(

All in all, this day is a BIG FAT WIN!

I will activate at the store. I have friends there so they won't handle my baby to death. They will enter the esn and let me do the groping.

The reason I want to do it in store is that if there are any defects i.e. dead pixels or anything I can replace it right there.

I don't have anyone I know at a store :(
 
11/17 is only two weeks away people! Thanksgiving is going to be good this year, just one more thing for us all to be thankful for.

Very interesting profession. I would love to do it but I don't think I could handle the highs and lows. Haha

I started with "disposable income" and it grew from there.

You have to be willing to ignore the amount of money you are playing with and have no respect for the actual value of a dollar. If you think about the money then you lose most of the time. It's always "play" money even though it is always real money. ;)

I was the top poster in the Incredible thread. I'm too busy as a mod to do that here, but at least I can contribute a bit.

A bit? If it wasn't for you and your Love Tunnel, Steven, I'd be getting a RAZR!

Well, I'll be standing at the door before they open, money ready, and offer a big honkin' commission to whatever rep will meet my criteria:

(a) A virgin, untouched Nexus from down in the stack;
(b) I put the battery in, turn it on and do all the stuff to it;
(c) They stand at their computer and do the dirty work;
(d) I sign the papers and walk out with my new Nexus and a semi-retired (but still Beloved) OG Droid.

And if they won't do that... I'll find a rep who WILL.

I have always had a very positive experience when calling Verizon support. While their stories may not always jive, they have ALWAYS been nice, courteous, and helpful. More than once have they said, "Screw the rules, here's an early upgrade for you... no fee involved. What phone would you like?" For that reason, I'll most likely preorder it. While the reps at my local store are (mostly) friendly and courteous, they are clueless about Verizon's policies and procedures so I don't go in there unless I absolutely have to. My luck they will screw something up so I'd much rather leave the screw-up in my hands. Plus I can then transfer things at my leisure and I know it's done right cause I'm doing it.
