A commentor at Droid-Life just made a pretty good point:



Although, there will be lots of comparisons being made, and store employees will need to know the basics, even if it's a web-only phone.

True, but the folks at Best Buy would have no involvement and it has already been stated that they are getting this too.
 
I just got out of church. This morning I went jogging while listening to the New York City marathon on the radio. How I miss running that!

It was good to have the morning off of the forms. I will update the OP as soon as I can.

How would it be web only? We've seen it listed at Costco.

Good point. This is all so complicated. I really hope this is worth all the hype and speculation, haha. Either way, my childish stomach butterflies are in full swing for this one...I really need to grow up. :D

Yes, but it doesn't say that it will be permanently web-only. It could be web-only for a week and then in-store after Thanksgiving for the Xmas shopping crowd.

I hope the 21 is a bald-faced lie. But dammit, it's Kellex. Very accurate with Verizon stuff and a fine tampon maker to boot.

I'm so tired of waiting.

I'm so tired.

Excellent point.

Yep, I vote garbage on that document/memo/downer thing.

It didn't say web only forever, calm down. Could be for a week and then when it is available at verizon in store it would be available to costco too. Just like the Exclusive thing that everyone cried about because how can verizon be the only one to get it. smh at people not comprehending:rolleyes:

Verizon Roadmap Shows Galaxy Nexus Available Online Only 11/21, New XOOM 2 on 11/30? – Droid Life: A Droid Community Blog

Don't think this was posted yet. Only available online? Not bad, though I would definitely spring for the overnight shipping!

Edit: Upon further reflection, looks like Verizon is going the route of DON'T PLAY IT UP/DON'T CANNIBALIZE RAZR/REZOUND SALES.

Worst. News. Ever. We were all so certain about the 17th, I sure hope this "leak" is BS. This means that best case scenario we'd receive the phone the next day on the 22nd. :(
 
I don't think this is what my sister was referring to. She doesn't know when things are leaking, she only knows (sometimes) when an official Verizon announcement is coming, and other stuff that floats around on the grape vine. To my knowledge, she doesn't know anyone who leaks stuff to Kellex, so she couldn't know this would pop up today.

My guess is we'll know something definitive tomorrow. What that something is, who knows.
 
Uh oh. Didn't the Windsock (p3Droid) say something about the 21st? Like having the Galaxy in his hand or something?

**sinking feeling**
 
Yep. P3's tweet from Nov. 3:

Dear bionic I ordered your replacement and u see the entire universe in my hands around the 21st.

Yes, the windsock doesn't know the difference between a single galaxy and the entire universe, which includes billions of clusters of galaxies, but that's to be expected. The gist is that the SGN will be in his hands then.

Uh Oh indeed.

How would he have already ordered it though??
 
Good morning everyone.

Missed yesterday, but I went to casino and out with the girlfriend's parents so couldn't really hop on here.

Awesome to see training materials out there and its awesome to know its getting closer and closer. Just really hope that 21st is not a definite date. Cannot wait until tomorrow since a few people have indicated leaks may happen.

OT: Time for some Jets football!
 
Also, one of the commenters said “what about if ‘w/o’ means 'week of' instead of 'web only'”.

That would put it possibly on Black Friday.

This is too confusing. :(

Edit: Never mind. Kellex cites a source as well as the document.

Kellex responded to that comment with this:

Source said specifically that it meant "web only."
 
Kellex also just posted this in the comment:

"Could have. It wouldn't be super surprising either. Everything I'm seeing, even as of today, shows that promos for the device are really not starting until after Thanksgiving weekend. So there is a chance it could be web-only for a week, and then they get them in stores after Black Friday."

I CAN'T TAKE ANYMORE OF THIS!!!!!!
