It's also been a legendary thread that's been around for over a year after it was closed. I'm sure a lot of us have re-read it or visited it for a laugh...

I don't think you understand how ebay works. You can cancel directly through ebay if both parties agree, and ebay and paypal fees are taken off.

Yes I do understand how eBay works. They'll get the PayPal and final value fees back -- if you agree to a mutual, which you didn't say -- but they're still out the original listing fee and the time that the original ad was running.

As a seller, I wish people wouldn't buy things they aren't sure they want. But that's what the blocked-bidder list is for. ;)

would someone be so kind as to give me a summary of what all is going on right now?

I saw some sort of letter written and a scolding note from an admin a few pages back... whats that all about?

Any word on why google removed the 32gb model from their page?

those of you who have held the rezound, how thick is it? really thick? im coming from a dinc, i just want to know what its like.

What is the deal with no flash in ICS , why would they do that?

I found the Rezound very comfortable and not overly thick. The sales guy said the GNex would be a little thicker than the Razr! He also said the Rezound was just like the GNex:eek:except without the face recognition!

I just took a break from it to watch USC stomp on my Ducks :mad::mad::mad::mad:

I should have kept playing.

But on the other hand, this game helps me take my mind off the Nexus release.

Not saying Ducks will win, but they are fighting hard as they do typically in the second half. This is looking far uglier than the last game where Stanford just imploded in the second half...I think part of it is that USC still being bowl ineligible, just really wants to screw the Ducks out of the potential for the NC. Gotta say though, USC is in fine form tonight.

Things the rezound is lacking pure Android ICS updates straight from Google super amoled thingsgalaxy nexus is lacking for the most part is bloatware and soft key
 
Been lurking for a week or two...

I went to a Verizon corporate store (Columbia, MD) today. The CSR I spoke to said that they had no release date yet. They haven't had any training and have no advertising material. He said that they had training on the Razr about a month before its release, so he didn't think the GNex would be coming out in the next week. He was definitely pushing the Razr over the Rezound. I actually liked the look and feel of the Razr, but I'll hold out with my OG Droid until I can get my hands on my shiny new GNex!

I'm not too tech savvy so I don't know if this next part makes any sense - the CSR said that the GNex was going to be released with a beta version of ICS and that the real version wasn't going to be released until 2012! Please, someone tell me what this means!!
 
First, Star Wars is badass! My 3 year old was Darth Vader for Halloween.

I just want to say that I am getting this phone just because it is a Nexus. That's it, I would be ok with hanging on to my DX for the foreseeable future. But, the idea of a phone updated when the update actually rolls out, well, that appeals to me. I was really wanting a Nexus 1, but I gave up hope on a Nexus after VZW passed it up (if that's how it went down). I didn't even bother looking for a Nexus S on VZW. I knew they wouldn't have it.

The Nexus phones have the allure of the "pure Google experience", I hope that stays true. I'm not an uber-geek, but I have waited long for updates on my Droid Eris and then my Droid X (bought on ebay, btw) for long periods of time. Don't get me wrong, the phones still functioned well (at least the DX) , but I knew there was an update to android that I didn't have.

Well, my heart actually sped up when I heard (read) that VZW was getting the Nexus. And an exclusive! That's pretty damn cool.

I'm waiting. Hopefully it will be 11/21, but if not, I will wait for it. I don't need a phone. I don't even want a phone. But, I do want a Nexus.
 
So, I've been out of the loop for about 28 hours and I come back online to hear rumors that there may be no 32GB option any more (WHAT?) no flash (not that big of deal), and still no confirmation of a date? Brutal.

Ok my friends - now I'm going to step away from the computer and be mobile for a while. Dinner with friends at one of my favorite restaurants - Jose Tejas - margaritas and camptown shrimp! Yum. If you're ever up this way - you should go. It's delicious.

You know I can't stay away though so I'll be checking. :D

Sounds delicious! Have fun!

I'm sure, and I have only respect for the owner, admins, and mods. It's just that when they locked the thread I was strangely reminded of the scene where they freeze the Matrix :D

I guess that was more like the Adjustment Bureau, but who's watched that, right? Certainly not me.

I understand. We locked the thread, not for disciplinary reasons, but to give folks a chance to read Rob's offer to help.
