This is my first and most important post... I have to say, following this thread has been like a bad addiction...haha...I have been pulling my hair out waiting for this damn phone, my OG droid is on its last legs.

Anyway, I Just got a text from a family member who owns several non-corp verizon stores. He said he was able to order 15 and will have them in-store on the 7th, I assume to sell the 8th. I'm happy!!!!!

So have I, but since I live in Charlotte and love seeing so many fellow AFers are from nearby, I haven't said anything. :D

Of course, that could pose a problem if I go to purchase my phone and it's sold out. :eek:

Sorry, I can't figure out how to hide this. :o (I'm on my iPad).

I just hope you all stay away from my Concord Mills location long enough for me to get there after work. ;)

Hello all, I joined this forum back in April 29th, 2010. I'm usually very quiet and just like to read the chat. But I must say something about most of the members posting in this thread.
Without you all I would be going crazy! It is truly a pleasure to see so many people get along so well and have fun while waiting on a device that should have been launched a few weeks ago. The stress is high but the talk is pleasant. I'd just want to say that you all are wonderful people and very entertaining.

I didn't want to blow my cover but you got me...I'm part of the AFSP. more commonly known as the Android Forums Secret Police.

Actually, I guess all the shoe/sports/everything else talk just got to me. It's not that big a deal when in the hide tags, but I've noticed it coming out in the open more often now.

Edit: thanks for the catch Early

I have not missed one post for some time - been lurking for a while today... :)

So - what's next? Well, let us just see.

I see we have one group organizing a bus ride. And I think that's great - if it's like a Japanese limousine bus because otherwise, Machete don't text and Early don't bus.

And then we have the air cruise to Australia. Also great if we want to risk drunken BlackBerry managers causing us to lay over in Vancouver and missing our arrival by 18 hours while they get arrested.

And with all of outcry going up and down along with cases being compared to Jello, I'm surprised that our Thunderbolt owners haven't resurrected the idea of the Million Nexican March, because mods made jello before and we can do it again.

But we are talking cruising here, now aren't we?

Well - I think it's simply time we all get our dancing shoes on because for me, voguing never did cut it - it's the motion and the moves, that's what I think.

And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
I said me upon my pony on my boat...

I go away for ten minutes and still no update from Steven?

Seriously, man, get off the pot. You're not supposed to take merchandise into the bathroom.

Think of the others that want to fondle the device after you!

No take it into the bathroom... remember the Seinfeld episode when George takes the book into the bathroom and the store makes him buy it..

"Sorry sir (Steven), now that you have taken it into the bathroom, you're going to need to buy it"
 
If Steven leaves anything other than post #1 of this thread on that GNex screen when he's done (or when they kick him out because the store is closing), i will be very disappointed.

Well they gave The Verge a indication on the date. "Unfortunately the price and release date are still nowhere to be found, though we were told that it may be coming in 'the next few days.'"

Not sure if that means the release date announcement will be in 'the next few days' or the phone itself is coming 'the next few days'.

He' probably trying to pull a Costanza when he brought the book into the Brentano's bathroom. It'll be flagged and he'll get to keep it. Brilliant strategy!!

FWIW, not that I buy into the store level info, but I called a indirect retailer asking about the Nexus, she interupted and said the "The Nexus Prime, yes, we will have it next week." So maybe it's really going to be it this time. The last time I called the same store, they had no idea what I was talking about.
