I love using the quick controls on my Tab, I always go to use them on my D2and forget they're not there, so I'm really excited I'll finally have them on my phone, too.

Ok guys, I was pretty down over thanksgiving about not having a shiny new GNex to show off to the family.
But I got home and flashed a stock gingerbread ROM on to the OG Droid and it has given me the strength to carry on just a little bit longer. I know sometimes the reflash ROM effect seems to fade over time but so far things are going well.
I was about to abandon hope and maybe even switch to ATT for a SGS2 but I am back in the game. I am not super optimistic about pre-order tomorrow but I think I can make it at least another couple weeks while I am distracted by the relative new-ness of Gingerbread, we shall see.

From Kellex @ Droid-life if it hasn't been posted already. I see he tweeted P3Droid earlier to see if he had gotten the update.

Um, not sure anyone here ever doubted it was real, but nice picture. Now, where were we? Oh- exactly where we were weeks ago... waiting.
I doubt we'll have pre-orders spring on us at midnight as if they came through a wormhole from another reality. If we get anything in the next 24 hours it will be an official VZW PR stating when pre-orders/availability will begin. At best you may see pre-orders launch after a PR tomorrow morning. I wont be holding my breath though, and I'd advise the rest of you do the same.
Sometimes the ridiculous mood swings/rushed assumptions in here are unbearable. And yes, by the way some of the posts are worded, they appear as assumptions. I know many of you are just anxiously waiting and making good conversation, but some are over the line in their posts. Please everyone just keep your wits about you when you post regarding "inside info from your reliable sources". Some folks take that bread crumb and run wild with it.

Thanks...color is nice
So I'm thinking that whoever took the photo, informed Kellex of it still being in testing. Timing is pretty perfect.
EDIT: Just realized how obvious this is......lol. Mental note: stop posting about stuff before clicking on the actual link.

Only secret if Rice Crispy treats are offered as a bribe. Otherwise we all talk about you in the thread that it happened in and hide those posts so that everyone can see them but you.

So heres another 'My Verizon Store Said'..... well not really what they said.. Its what they didnt say 
I was activating and swapping phones at the corp store in my area, and of course I asked about the pre-order. He smiled and didnt really say anything back. He didnt say yes or no. Just then he grabs a rolled up banner (window one) and puts it behind him. It was prior on the desk in front of me. It was a red winter banner, but it was rolled to tight so I couldnt see the picture on it. So after he moved it, alot of the reps and the manager were hanging around, and one of the reps said as he came around the corner 'so is the new stuff going up tonight'? They all kinda looked at him funny... This was right before closing time tonight.
So for what it was, it was rather weird. I think we can expect a pre-order tonight or tomorrow. It was rather interesting though.

Remember we have PMs and iReport for problems with posts or posters. Let's keep it light here fellas.
Anyone else think 4.0.2 releasing may be promising for an 8th release? Or does it mean at least two more weeks of testing.

Well if you've already got the salt, might as well make it a margarita.
I want one! Please. Pretty please??
Yes. With the media and mainstream users knowing about this one I would order to make sure I got one.
You made 'em twist!
Such a team player!
Yes, there was.
Mine too. But I usually waltz in, ignore them and do it myself. They never spell my name right, even when I spell it out for them.
Welcome back. Please don't leave us again.
Since I live 1 mile from a corp. store I went ahead and mad the trip for you guys to see if any Gnex advertising was up, and nothing was there. They said the phone is still not in their system & it will not be pre-ordering tomorrow. Sorry for the bad news
Thanks for trying.

Call me Mr Marshmallow and I can surely find hundreds of Mr Krispy posters on this site.

Were they specifically told it wouldn't be for pre-order tomorrow? Or are they just assuming that since they haven't heard anything it can't possibly be true?
