I had visions of getting up to 1000 thanks hits before the end of this thread. Starting to feel a little iffy. Looks like I'm going to need to:

a.) conjure up some comic genious
b.) be the guy to break the final leak on release date
c) get an avatar sexier than BB

The funny thing is, you could leak it as you state in b). but when "The Source" confirms it via Steven a while later, he will get more thanks ;)

First post post-666. Does this mean I killed the Beast?

Question - my dad has an upgrade on his verizon account that he said I could use, if I wanted. He has my old flip phone with of course no data plan. If he uses the upgrade to get a SGN, will they have to put a data plan on his account, even if he removes it immediately? I'm just trying to figure out the best way to use his upgrade, if needed. (I'll buy him another phone, if needed, when his phone eventually dies, but for now, it's working extremely well.) He does not want a smart phone.

Check out Verizons website after you log in I think there might be a "transfer upgrade" option in there, I saw it when looking around the other day but didn't look in to it since I don't need to.

I don't know about doing it in a store, but if you do it online there is an option of just using the upgrade for your line.
 
Thanks for all of the replies about the rezound antennas. The thread is moving so fast today I'm having trouble keeping up. my friend is letting me borrow the phone in question for the rest of the day to see if I can work out the antenna issues. he also thinks he's having a problem with battery life so I'll put it through the wringer for him.

Be sure to post if you hear any nexus or Samsung antenna or reception info. I would hate for that to be a deal breaker for me. I guess I would need to consider the razor (bleck)

Dont' want to be a downer dan, but I really don't think the 21st is happening. Two business days before the launch and no announcement, no devices at stores, accessories and posters at only some stores? I really hope it comes before Thanksgiving, but I don't see the 21st as a plausible option.

I would think that over-nighting from corporate tonight would be the only hope for that. But I agree, unless web only on Monday and instore on Tuesday.
 
Here is a question for everyone. I have been a follower of this forum from the Galaxys2/Function/Stratosphere/Celox/Nexus Prime/Galaxy nexus days....anyways... I, like all of you, am extremely excited and can't wait for the release. I was talking up the Gnex to my buddy last night and he said "dude...there is no way that phone will fit in your pocket!" I disagreed, but it got me to thinking....will this monstrosity actually fit comfortably in a pants pocket?

Any input from those with a big android phone already would be great. Thanks Nexicans!

I am about to jump out of my skin.

My local Verizon rep just called.

She said a Samsung rep is coming by and she should have a test Nexus in the store tomorrow. She said I might be able to come play with it. :eek::D:D:D:D:D

Just sayin.

I'm going to agree with you. I believe they announced the Nexus on Verizon on a Friday although that doesn't necessarily mean anything for tomorrow. Either way, I think it's looking rather grim for any official word today.

But who knows, anything can happen. Friday could see promotional materials and/or reception of stock inventory at stores. I'm still holding on to hope that the phone will be released next week, after all, our sources did say "week of".

That's exactly why I think it's something.. they never have a blank page in testman.. never. I think they're up to something.
