And the Nexus is so incredibly fast that you were able to take a picture of the back side using its own FFC! Woohoo!

BREAKING NEWS
I just headed to my local Authorized Retailer store (read: NOT a corporate store, but a very similar retailer, Cellular Connection - Home) to ask about moving an upgrade up. The guy said he could only move it up a week, etc. etc. but then I asked him about the Nexus. When it would come out, if they got anything in, etc. and he told me that "[he] was actually just given the ability to pre-order three GNexi tonight. I know you're all thinking that this is the guy who got the notice for 50 GNexi but I asked him about that and he said it was screen protectors and cases, not the actual phones... BUT I asked if I could see the computer screen for proof to share with you guys, and while his manager was standing over his shoulder and wouldn't let me take a picture, I DID see that he was able to order [a whopping] three (3) SCH-i515's. No mention of when they would be available, but considering he was just able to order them, we could be seeing pre-orders online at midnight tonight or tomorrow.
BTW this guy gave me the DInc one day before it was released in stores, so I believe him... also he said he would set up a shipping notification for his phone, email, and text so he could call me literally the moment the phones come into the store. You would think if he was the average sales rep he would just try to sell me a RAZR or the like, but he was serious about this and was as excited as I am.
Take it FWIW, I know a lot of you will probably disregard it, but this is a serious news tip, from a verifiable source; I saw the pre-order form with my own two eyes.

Not doubting or picking, just finding humor.... I clicked the link then went to the smart phone section and the latest phone they list are the Eris and the OG Droid. lol
OMG! I almost just fell out of my chair!
Little backstory: I view this site 3-5 times a day (probably a LOT more) and I briefly saw the little drama on 3vil giving thanks to everyone. Well, I just today noticed it's over 48 thousand thanks! I kid you not my dogs were looking at me as though I was completely insane by how loud I was laughing.
That made my night!

I want this phone SOOOOO bad. Please Verizon, give us the phone. We will forgive you if MyVerizon doesn't work right away.

Are you kidding me?! I will be so devastated without a proper My Verizon app!
Sarcasm self-test complete.
Speaking of VZW stores. Does anyone have a corporate store that has 2 "Door Monitors" that jump on you the second you walk in and ask you what you need?
It's freaking annoying!
Just put in Big bold letters "Don't read the next post" in the post before his. That way everyone will for sure listen, and skip right over it.
does anyone live near enough to a corporate VZW store that they can run up there and see if the digital ads are up for the Gnex yet?
Yeah, we have TWO sign in screens, but practically between the door and the sign in screens, there's a podium that's usually occupied by one or two of the attack dogs. I understand the pressure tactics of the sales people, who clearly work on commission, but the door person doesn't get a cut of that, do they? Is this Hockey? Do they get a point for an assist? I feel like the sign in screen totally does their job, but they are so insistent!

LOL it figured that was coming...She didn't get a picBut I'm not b.s.-ing I swear...She just texted me again and said it did say "Galaxy Nexus".
Can somebody please repost this picture because it's coming up as a broken image for me? Thanks in advance.![]()
At my verizon store, the welcome people fill out the sign in screen for the customers!
Oh, good, that's back online.
I am a little perturbed about the Google Wallet thing, but if there is any app that is the perfect example of a crappy website replacement that accomplishes nothing that the website can't do, and do it while being really ugly, it's the My Verizon app.
wow....the quick controls and the browser in general look really amazing.Browser, Movie studio and new voice to text. Sorry, but I just can't get enough of these.
