OMG

These idiots.

Now they're telling me that the ESN number on this phone is "locked up until the 21st" and can they call me to program it on the 21st?

ARGH!!!

Will anyone else miss the Menu button when they get the GNex/4.0? I use it quite frequently. How will we access the settings and whatnot in apps now?

The menu button is still there. It is the three little dots on the right side of the screen, next to the running apps button.
 
Please Verizon, when can I give you my money. Monday's disappointment and/or excitement can't come soon enough.
 
Ok after some of your replies and posts, I see that I need to make some more clarification about this. So here is the full list of things you should NOT encourage your fellow forum members to do while trying to gain information from a Verizon employee about the Nexus.

We still need everyone to try and make just one post an hour. One post an hour from everyone and this can be the largest thread in AndroidForums history.

Fantastic! ...and rules to live by!
 
We may need to assemble an emergency Dinc2 strike team! Destination: Solo residence. If he spends another day with that phone he may waver on his Gnex commitment.
 
I hear you. And with that said if anyone stakes their life on what they read on any Webb site, I have a bridge for sale in the Congo.

With all due respect to the good folks out there.
Really? What condition is it in? I hear Congo is beautiful this time of year. :p
 
I am still praying that we get some kind of announcement before I leave work today at 4, because once I leave I probably won't check in until monday again I just can't take this stress over the weekend lol.

How do you make a show/hide button for text?
 
I feel like we're twins. I too have a DInc and an iPad 2, I'm running the latest MIUI, and I'm putting stock on my DInc before giving it to my girlfriend to replace her Eris which is pooping out.

Are you using the super mario lock screen? :D

Nah, just stock MIUI. It's been an awesome phone and honestly has many more months of use left in it, I'm just ready to move on. Step into 4G, larger screen, and ICS.

I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!
I have now snorted cranberry sprite onto my keyboard and am laughing so hard I have tears. That was a tension breaker that I needed. Thank you!!!
 
Now they're going to check to see if there is a store nearby that can give me a "loaner phone" until the Nexus comes out.

I asked her when the SGN is supposed to come out, because I need a phone that works ASAP, and she put me on hold for a few minutes, came back, and said "I'm not showing a date for that yet." (Thought I'd try while I was on and one of them was feeling sorry for me.)

This is ridiculous.
