I just wanna know:
How many of y'all truly believe Dec 8?
If you don't then when do you expect it?(realistically, don't say 2013 or something stupid)

Edit: I mean like personal opinion best guesses

That whipped cream vodka has really taken off recently among the ladyfolk here. At one point, everyone brought a bottle to the same party without knowing and of course we had about 3 left over just sitting here for a couple weeks. Personally, I don't get it, but it's huge. Beer and/or vodka clubs for me.

That stuff is AMAZING...and lethal. Vodka is like Kryptonite for me.

Hee hee, I say that now, but come tomorrow morning when I'm contending with 20 6 year-olds I may regret that statement. :D

Sounds like you're the one that's gonna need a drink tomorrow. I think I'd rather poke out my own eyes with a spork than trade places with you. :D

I was ready to give up on 12/8 but after tweets by P3 and BritishTurbo hope seems to be restored...12/15 would be worst case scenario and I do not believe 12/22 will happen as that would be a tad bit too late for most holiday sales...i'll go with 12/8
 
FWIW, I like my water, wine, and caffeine cold and carbonated (no offense to Han), so it's a nice glass of cava for me tonight.
 
So today I just couldnt stand not having a working phone (Screen is nonfunctional on my Storm 2)...and I kinda need that for my job. So I had to brake down and buy a Rezound...hopefully it'll be temporary...the guy said I can only return it 14 days AFTER it is activated so if the GN isn't out in 14 days I may have to take a loss if I sell the Rezound...oh well, such is life. I can't risk loosing my job over a broken phone LOL! The Rezound is definitively nice enough to hold me over though! So far my biggest grip is that the wake button is on top and a little hard to push, forcing my hand to do a weird maneuver to unlock it.

Honestly, I'm done believing anything unless it was said by Verizon. Until then, I expect it 12/31.

At this point, I think I'm safe assuming November is out. :D

Seems like we're getting a few speculative confirmation dates. As we get closer, the news will start flowing in. Shipments to stores, ads, and *gasp* maybe Verizon will send us some GNex info like we signed up for.
 
REALLY starting to hate VZW now.


I want to lock down this double data for the Nexus. (I have 5 lines on my account, 4 of which are out of contract and been with them for 9 years of perfect payment) Called CS, they won't guarantee me double data when the Nexus does release. Went to the store to Rent-a-Rezound, CS rep there told me if I get the double data, and the promo ends, when I get the Nexus I'll have new terms/conditions and will not be able to keep double data.

I asked him how unlimited data people get to keep there's and he said, "that's different". And advised me it will still be around until after Christmas.

I just don't get it, I have 4 lines out of contract, want to upgrade service, and they can't even toss me a bone.


***Double data better still be around for me to enjoy on my Nexus!!!

Keep calling. You should eventually get someone to help you out.

I have no idea! What I do know is if it isn't here by Christmas break (Dec. 21) then I'm buying the Rezound. I will have a 1 1/2 - 2 weeks off and I will want my new toy! :D

One word. Escalate.

Tell the CSR you want to talk to a manager. Tell the manager that they could be losing the account. All you want is a little customer service for your substantial monthly investment. Oh, and go to a Corp. store.

Apparently Fat Tire is opening up an East Coast brewery outside Philly...kinda excited.

Had some Fat Tires when I was in Colorado. It was just OK.

I did just have some Pliney the Younger a month ago, along with Kentucky Breakfest Stout. Had to get tickets at the bar, and it wasn't easy, but I was able to get two pints of each before the kegs were gone. Easily some of my favorites, along with Ten Fidy.

I wasn't holding out hope until seeing the product view pics popping up. If they really were just added today, then I think it's very probably we are a day or two away from seeing a pre-order or product page pop up on verizon. I will not be holding my breath, but this is a very good sign i think.

I did go to a corporate store.

Heck, I even worked in the call center between college semesters...can't believe the runaround they're giving me.
