I have only read Anathem, it was slow at first but I ended up really enjoying it. Wonder if I would like the ones you mentioned?

I've read Anathem, Cryptonomicon, Snowcrash and REAMDE. I think you'd like any of the others if you liked Anathem. Snowcrash and REAMDE are set in current time, or near future, unlike Anathem, but they are all good reads.

I would consider Snowcrash to be Stephenson's best novel, but that's just me.

Called the Verizon rep that hooked me up with the Rezound last thursday. He said he has a small shipment already in the back and has no official date of when to start selling. He is hearing the 8th but it could also be the 9th. He said he cant reserve this small quanity and says I should be in good shape to arrive one of those mornings and pick one up. He said its not like an iphone launch.

He will email when he hears something official.

Which location did you call? I called both in Orland, and another in New Lenox. I have a strong suspicion they all lied to me. Hell, I KNOW they lied. At this point, any information is helpful to me. My OG's tiny little brain is giving out. I need to take her off life support...

Also, HAI! I'm new. Been lurking since October. ;)
 
I spoke to a buddy who works at a VZW store. I'll be purchasing Friday for sure, he talked like it was a done deal. He knows how many they will have in stock, etc.

Looks like the day has finally come.

Haha, I just looked at the post count. Wasn't Early and Steven just talking about 64k this morning?

Oh by the way, I never told yall, I got my invisibleshield yesterday. I showed it off to everyone "Hey, look at how big this phone is going to be, this is just the screen protector!"

I own a Verizon Wireless store in Olney, MD and my Verizon rep just emailed me to confirm the 12/9 launch!

If you're in the area...take a look at the post from one of my sales associates on the specials we will be running for Phandroid members!

I use Tango with my husband. He has an iFruit, I'm ashamed to say. None of them are perfect, but that one works pretty well and is successful at traversing the robot-fruit divide.

I'm new to all this but I assumed Skype would do the same thing. Am I wrong? Or do you find Tango just to work better?
 
Has anyone seen any benchmarks as far as a Galaxy Nexus Vs HTC Desire Z/G2?

I find Nexus S Vs G2 benchmarks, but no SGN. I'm curious to know what numbers im jumping up to..

Yep - and I've set my official guess to Steven on what our final count will really be. ;)

Cool beans on the screen protector story.

Tell them invisibility is a new Android feature. :)
 
Called VZW about changing my upgrade date from 12/29 to 12/9. They said I was eligible for an early upgrade but it would cost me $20, and I wouldn't qualify for my $50 discount. Definitely can't wait another 20 days for this phone...Is this the same experience everyone else is having when changing their upgrade date less than thirty days in advance, or should I call back and speak with another CSR?

it seems I may be proven wrong by verizon sure hope we get these things by the end of the week. I am going to stop by my local store and talk to the rep I usually buy from hes a pretty laid back guy I'll see if he can give me any info about stock coming in and what not, I'll be sure to report back.

wish i wasn't so busy at work i can't post that much anymore....lol
 
I called 3 of the stores near me. 1 said that the phone will be released during the weekend, and actually seemed to know somewhat about the phone, saying yeah it's the best new phone better than the SGS2. The rest had no idea.
