***Official Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release speculation thread**

Not open for further replies.
just got the text from my friend who works in a corporate store:

"lots of nexus boxes in the store and although 9th was supposed to be the date, they took it back. not sure what is happening but must be something for the date to be changed."

maaaaaaaaaan. ever since i got the software update, my DInc is becoming a nightmare. I need a new phone.
 
Some stores are going to inevitably sell this on the 9th. No way Verizon corp thinks they can stop every store from selling it. They probably just want to announce it on their own terms tomorrow.
 
I still think that verizon changed it to coming soon so that employees would quit running their mouths and showing documents never meant to be seen by the public( you and I). Verizon was waiting to issue a PR prob tomorrow saying the 9th and now that that info leaked they are saying it is delayed yet will announce it tomorrow to get all the hype back. JMO

Hopeful of the same thing, in fact I SAID the same thing a couple pages back ;)

See if this works (no guarantees, didn't check if cookies were involved -

Ok, got confirmation. Corporate store DID recieve an email cancelling the 9th as the launch date, I talked to the same manager that set my appt up last night. He said I could come check out the phone, because they did recieve them in the store last night. Also he would call me as soon as he got new info.

Sorry folks.

Unfortunately, I just confirmed the above with my contacts and my Corporate Store Manager.

S/He also stated that the SME wasn't even assigned yet.

The waiting game continues ...
 
Been offline all morning. With wife at doctor. She took a serious spill at work and is in a great deal of pain. Will be online later.

I implore everyone too love one another in my absence. I'll be back in an hour and a half.

Take care of her Steven. I hope everything is ok and she feels better soon.
 
Watch, Verizon is just trolling us soooo hard. They pulled back the release date just so they could announce it tomorrow morning and we will all fall in love with them again...
 
Get a ReZound. Heck, get a Raze if ya don't like the HTC device!!!! Or resign yourself to getting something else shiny after New stuff comes out Q1 '12.

The longer you wait for a phone that clearly keeps getting pushed back, the more disappointed you are going to be when you finally DO get it, only to find it is already outdated, still has issues, or both.

Just my two cents worth. YMMV

Played with all three. The Nexus is, IMO (emphasized to make it clear that it is an opinion), head and shoulders above the other two. Not just for ICS either. It is the best experience I've ever had on Android, and I'm willing to wait for whenever for it honestly. The R&R seem like settling for second place now.

Again, this is just my opinion from playing with all 3.
 
The wording on the last line tells me:

"were expecting the Galaxy Nexus by the 13th, in that case put it right on the floor for sales. If it comes sooner, the VZW stores will already have it, so put it up as well." not much info there imo

That is for a walmart ad, so it makes sense they usually get phones later than verizon does.
