Just wanted to let everyone know he put a description along with that picture which says "This is with lots of surfing and screen brightness at max"

Looks like battery life won't be an issue on this phone folks. Can't Wait!!!:)

Edit: judging by the pic looks like the surfing was on 4g. Makes it all the better

Additionally, he further showed this screenshot:

With the screen lit for over 1 hour, my OG Droid would be much lower than 45%

Ok, friends.. .this is indeed good news and I am leaning toward putting my faith in it. Off the record, in PM's, The Source is a very, very nice and a very warm hearted individual. I get NONE of that type of arrogance you sense from some of the lead people who twitter about this stuff. "Ha ha! I got info you don't! I got the phone in my hand, and wouldn't you like to know more? Well, when I get 1000 twitter followers..., etc"

I get none of that. The person's really, really sincere and actually has encouraged me when folks started coming down heavy on me. Thank you!!!!

Anyhooo... I'm going to cut out a sentence that is irrelevant to the info but tells me what the source was doing and why it didn't get back to me.





There you have it. As far as he knows nothing has changed. The rumor mill is going crazy, but that's not what seems to be happening in Verizon.
Off to the Verizon store. I want to see this Razr again. I'm bringing some eggs to fry, this time. :p

Okay... so I guess a lack of bad news is good news.

Awesome News Steven! Thanks so much to you and the Source... 8 days people, 8 days!!!

P.S. Please bring a camera, if you can show us a pic of a display razr with an egg on it, frying or not, we will forever be in your debt. (of course we already are because of your awesome work here, but you get the point)
 
So hopefully that means we'll start hearing more on the 15th (if that work in progress e-mail meant anything).

Exciting!

I trust your source more than I trust the fear-mongering rumor mill, and this is indeed encouraging. I appreciate The Source's willingness to continue to share what he/she knows, despite the skepticism and sometimes personal attacks that are launched at both you and The Source. So once again, thanks for looking out for us, sharing what you (and The Source) can.

And may The Source be with you. :D (*note corny Star Wars reference)

17th it is -- still keeping the countdown on my phone.

Less than 8 days, this is incredible!

Which means there may be a chance for us GSMers before 2012. The reason I say this is because Verizon is the US launch partner, and ATT was official launch partner for the 4S...Now, how long did it take for Verizon to get the 4S after ATT released it????
 
Do you guys realize that's in 8 days? That's one week and one day!

In one week and one day, we will all be either holding our babies (our more important babies, not your actual infant, ASC ;) ) or waiting anxiously for the UPS guy to arrive.

If that's all it takes, I'm so ready.
 
I also just had a conversation with an online rep., and according to that rep., there is no release date as of yet; but I cannot attest to how well informed the rep. I chatted with really is.

Apparently a lot of folks have been asking about the GNex too ;)

 
So P3Droid tweeted a pic of him playing a video yesterday (I posted it earlier)

Then someone asked: "thought the soft keys were supposed to disappear?"

P3Droid's Response: "They do but space remains" :eek:

But we've seen reviews where the extra space was utilized! What's going on!!

Not every developer has updated to take advantage of ICS yet.
 
Okay... so assuming that the web only date is 11/17... how long from ordering to receiving do you guys think? Order on Friday, receive on Tuesday?

We have? I've always seen the dots remain
 
I may be stating the obvious here, but I've been lurking here for a while, and I think we all need to realize that Steven's source is legit, especially in the fact that he or she is giving us all the info "he or she" has, which we all should be very thankful for. But if for some reason, the date changes, we also need to NOT FLAME HIS SOURCE AT ALL, because the guy or gal is just trying to help, and I would bet the house on him being as honest as he or she can be about the info given!!!!!


PS - I am a coach, don't let me get my coaches voice out on some of you!!!! I'll run your asses until I get tired!!!! LOL :D

True. That would make sense if he was streaming or something. But what if he was playing the video from internal memory using the native video player? Anyone know what skin the video player is using?
