***Official Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release speculation thread**

Not open for further replies.
Hi guys. Back online after living in the other world for most of the day. I have decided that I am going to be an optimist and in 45 minutes I am going to hop over to Verizon and pre-order my Nexus. Then I am coming back here to share the joy and spread the love. Who else wants to join my "optimist party" ? At lease give it a try for 43 minutes?
 
Yep, Verizon is they're too get there cut. Otherwise they would be waisting thier money on advertising...............

You guys gotta give me some leeway, I have been waiting with my OG Droid since the Bionic and thru the SGII debacle. I have battle fatigue.

@kiter86 have you ever seen a device released with no announcement? I would not hold my breath.

It is sad to say that we only tend to realize that when bad things happen in our lives. :(

It's OK to go after ones desires, but don't forget the important things in life.

I finally changed the DNS servers on my NIC to Googles DNS Servers. I can watch this forum thread much faster now! :)

Yep, and now Google can watch your 'net behavior even closer than before!

I was being playfully hyperbolic. No offense to you and your R phone. I'm sure it's lovely.

Edit: I guess I should start using smileys so people know when I'm kidding

LOL, well it'll be plenty lovely if I can get the [darn] thing and all my other devices activated on the right lines. I'm deferring RezFanBoiism until GNex ships out of respect.

I've been thinking about this "original post thing" and I think I have a better solution.

I've heard this before, and personally don't agree with it.

Verizon's primary concern is selling you a voice and data plan. They honestly don't care which smartphone you buy, just so you end up paying the fees. Thier business is service.

Good post, but it totally ignores the $$$ Verizon makes from bloatware, which is mostly absent from GNex.

By members private requests, here are some clarifications -


~~~~~~~

Expletives deleted. We've got a word filter, we don't like it bypassed with stars because the word is really still there. This is not a new site policy, that's always drawn a mod edit when noticed.

Euphoniumsare ok, as you'd hear on TV - freaking, etc etc. Some of us are old enough to remember Sarge from the Beetle Bailey comics - he often said to the troops in the kiddie's funnies - @~#///&!!! and that was good enough to get the idea across but it kept it fun and friendly. (note that the expression length and makeup makes it generic, unlike the usual use of stars)



Cheers, many thanks for your time! :)

Cool. I played Euphonium back in high school for symphonic concerts along with a beater baritone horn in marching band. :p

I'd be kind of surprised. My understanding is that the Nexus Prime moniker got dropped a while back due to copyright concerns with Hasbro.

The original Nexus Prime:

if true, it is hard to believe they had an issue with Samsung using "Nexus Prime" but didn't have one with Asus using "Transformer Prime". :confused:
