Sorry, what happened? Why is everyone doubting the 8th and 9th now? The lack of a PR this morning for the nexus? Or did something more tangible/credible come up? Man I was really hoping to get it this week.

Nope...just our daily positive, negative, positive, etc. flow. :)
 
Off topic Samsung Flexscreens

Pretty cool stuff, flexible transparent screeens, kind of like the screens on Red Planet
Yep and in 2019 when it debuts on the Nexus 6, people will complain that it is such old tech and why doesn't it look humanoid like all those other Android models..To which Google will retort, at least it doesnt go AWOL and murder off-world civilians..

OK sorry, maybe Ive watched a certain movie too many times:eek:

Tiffany is wrong...

There is no Tiffany......;)

Hah of course they did. RT @toonzdiggler: @droid_life they removed the nexus from the Samsung store at Columbus circle!! Fml.

I am not convinced it is because of anything VZW did... could be it was disrupting the rest of the store.
 
if i had the money i'd buy the gsm version and switch to t-mobile or att but figures i don't if i wanted to by the time i could get it the lte one would be available so i'm stuck either way
 
True, but if past phone releases are any indication, there's always someone who will snap a pic that ends up online.

Regarding BGR, I've been F5'ing their site all morning. :o

I stopped following BGR after gellar started doing a daily diary of his Verizon iPhone for page hits. Never went back, and this won't change it.

Hah! I wonder if Samsung let slip demo unit on the floor too early? Anyways, there are numerous possibilities as to why it isn't there. I'm not going to read much into it.
 
Hmm. I wonder if they have this in black or navy blue.

OT tab stuff

I bought one really similar to that for my 10.1 Galaxy Tab. It's cool and all, but it was really making me nervous as far as offering protection. I can't tell if that one has the magnetic closure the iPad one does and that may help, mine didn't have that, but I decided that it was just too flimsy to offer protection (and if it's not magnetic it doesn't even always protect the screen), and if it wasn't offering protection then I was better off with a naked Tab. I have the
OEM bookcase case which is awesome, if they make one for the Prime like that then that's what I recommend.
 
I thought we weren't going to get exited/upset over CSR chats anymore, considering they likely don't know anything. Did I miss something?

They also had the GSM one out. Why did they pull both if it was VZW complaining about something?

I thought that could be the case as well. It was more of just a tease for the weekend before release (maybe).

Personally I don't think that we will hear anything until Thursday. Eyesopen or whatever his/her name made it seem like the phone will not be announced before launch day.:confused:
 
Please hold for a Verizon Wireless sales representative to assist you with your order. Thank you for your patience.
You are now chatting with 'Kory'
Kory: Hello! My name is Kory. Thank you for using your pre sales chat service today. I can walk you through starting new service, upgrading, or adding new lines! How may I assist you?
TJ: Morning Kory, We have a large family and the combining of families we have very old family plans w/ both att and you. I have been waiting for a release date for the Galaxy Nexus and today was my deadline for some info before I went to ATT after work and got their Samsung Skyrocket. Can you confirm still no info on a release date?
Kory: There is no information available on the release date yet, sorry.
TJ: Not your fault sorry. You should let your superiors know that unfortunately the lack of info on the release has lost you a customer as I have been very patient.
Kory: I'll be sure to let them know.
TJ: Have a good day
Kory: Thank you for visiting Verizon Wireless; it’s been a pleasure chatting with you. Have a great day!
Your chat session has been ended by your Verizon Wireless online agent


I am out! Sadly they are not concerned with just 1 small customer but ATT has offered me an exceptional price on the Skyrocket and although not 4G I cant miss what I never had and I don't use huge portions of data on the road. I wish you all the best of luck and stay sane.
 
My memory is different. they had the Droid Does and i don't commercials for weeks before it was released... I thought...

I remember the first commercials airing during the world series in 09'. So that would have been the end of october/early november. The ones with the stealth bombers dropping the packages.
 
I finally figured out what is so familiar about this forum. Have you ever watched very young kids playing soccer? You know, long before they understand what "play your position" means? They act like a swarm of bees. Wherever the ball is, they all gravitate towards it.
We are the kids and a Nexus rumor is the ball. :D

Oh yeah! And we CAN'T touch it with our hands.
