Not open for further replies.
Hoping for the same thing. No news yet. I figure just three more nights staying up at the most. Tonight, tomorrow night, or Thursday night. Hopefully the sooner versus the later.

If it isn't tonight, Wed, or Thurs I won't do online.
 
I will be in Heaven with the new Galaxy Nexus 4G no matter if the battery lasts 3 hours...I get 1 hour on my i-phone 3gs on At&t, I have it always on an external Morphie Battery case which last 6 hours total before recharging....:D
 
My last invitation to lurkers in this thread. I know you're there... in the thousands, probably.

I want to welcome you to Android Forums and encourage you to sign up and join the fray. Yup, this is coming from the thread's author and it's a special invitation to you welcoming you to join in the fun. We're safe and friendly.

If you join now, before the thread closes, you will have the distinction of having been part of this epic thread.

Sincerely,
Mr58. :D


Another OG Droid lurker checking in, started visting this thread back in late August not long after it was created. Signed up on this forum around the OG release day but have never posted.

Thanks to all posters for all the great info (and posting all news so quickly). Seems like we'll be getting the phone soon. In September this thread became my main source of news for the phone (was checking google news/various feeds in Pulse). I don't have much to say so I don't post. I also don't want to ruin the thread -- I have a horribly dark sense of humor and I know I'd get in trouble!

For the NJ folks, I've lived in several towns in that state, including Hawthorne and Wayne in the north. Went to William Paterson as well in the 90s.

I have a mildly entertaining OG Droid story, will post sometime soon.
 
So i called around this afternoon, one store i asked about it. Said yes we have them but not sure if we can sell yet.(I got very excited) Was put on hold then immediately changed her story to no we dont have any not even a Demo. Out of 6 stores I called that was the closest info Ive gotten.

Whats the difference between a soft release on Thurs( is that like no public info given) and launch on Fri when Joe public whos not in the know can go pick it up ?


this might have gotten lost in the plethora of posts anyone answer this?
 
Glad to have another Jersian (at heart) in here!

The CSR on the phone told me there won't be any preorders as he was looking in his system. This is the same guy that admitted that the extended battery is in their system along with the Nexus. So might be legit? Who knows...

Also I was told that the store cannot do 3G->4G early upgrades so I dunno if that is true but he told me customer service (1800) can do a 3G->4G early upgrade so it looks like I'm going to have to order mine on the 9th overnight-ed and get it Saturday.
 
I called my local store here in Chicago's SW burbs and basically had to brow-beat the poor kid who answered the phone. I guess when you start the conversation with "I know X, Y, and Z, so don't you DARE lie to me..." you get your point across quickly. He seemed very nervous to confirm anything and stated "We don't give out information on our stock numbers." I was confused, I didn't ask for a number of stock. I asked if I could have my phone on Friday.

He asked how I knew all of this, to which I replied "Not everyone in your company thinks this should be held secret. I know what the internet is." I had my fun at his expense...consider it payback for lying to me earlier in the day!

That sounds....rather agressive. I guess so long as you did not threaten to come down there (and whatever that implies) to get the answer...:rolleyes:

-Nkk
 
You're lucky you have a BB employee who knows something about what they do... every time I go to BB and ask about the Nexus or call them they're like "we have the Nexus S on AT&T".

NO.

Lol. He started out calling it the Prime every time I came in. After a while I guess he realized that I knew something and wasn't just crazy chick coming into the store.

Trouble is what most of us are good at! And I live in Hawthorne!!!!!

Welcome!!

Night all. hope there is more information when i wake up tomorrow.


Night!


I haven't used gtalk:o (does that make me not worthy of the nexus?:p) but I can send you an email or a pm on here.

You are worthy. I only use it because it's on the phone - it's a pain in the arse cause notifications decide when they want to work. :(
