Did you have a Zalad! :p

And sure, accessories ARE something thx

Haha, nah I had a chicken dinner plate :P It was pretty tasty! They do have good salads though.

Yes they are lol.. though I hadn't really thought much about getting any accessories.. maybe I'll get the extended battery though. Not so sure about the car mount thing.. never tried one of those.
 
Off Topic - VT



Nope... 5 hours away in NoVa.

Wishing I could get back to just obsessing over the Nexus :frown:

Best wishes for everyone at Tech and to you and all the other folks in Blacksburg and the surrounding area.

i am about 4 hours to the east and cant get a hold of my friends i have there
 
So...What feature of the GNex/ICS are you looking forward to most?

For me it's being able to access notifications from the lock screen and the screen of the device itself.
 
i dont know if they normally do but the one i was playing with was 4g and the speed test i did shows that

Yeah that's why I was wondering. I don't think anyone else had seen an activated one yet, though I could be wrong, so I was wondering what the norm is, or how they're able to activate the display models. If they usually activate them then I might try and stop on the way home and see if I can find one too. :) If it's not activated I think I'd rather just wait until I can buy it, that'd be too much of a tease if I can't actually use it.

I've tried to make a sauce like theirs, but cannot do it!

I want the car dock and the ext 'battree' hoping both are in stock when time to purchase :)

you can try the one i was using i was able to make a call on it
 
I also did a speed test in Secaucus,nj on a razr. 4g had like 2-3 bars. I was getting no more than 5.x mb download.. blah, seems 4g lte sucks around here. i was hoping for awesome speeds

Because 750k/sec on a phone is horrible! The humanity~

I'm kidding sort of. Unsure of where you live, but I live in a fairly spread out town/city whatever you would like to call it. We definitely have concentrations of AWESOME 4g. Certain spots around the hospital etc I can get 20+ mbits down, but throughout most of the county I get ~5 mbits down 3 up.

At home .. on Cable .. I get ~ 5 mbits down, 384k up.

Not everywhere is blessed with super awesome cable speeds, and 5 mbits is nothing to sneeze at in general, especially compared with what rural areas see.

My OG Droid is slow, like takes 30 seconds to load icons on homescreen after exiting the browser slow. I'm mostly looking forward to having a nice speedy phone....also I need more memory for apps =O)
 
I just hope the Transformer Prime release isn't as shoddy as this device's.

Knock on wood/fingers crossed/no fingers crossed/

I don't think Verizon has anything to do with that one, right? So there's your answer.

Seriously, if this thing comes out on the 15th, I'll wait the extra 4 days and see what's what when the Prime comes out.
 
when's the next big upcoming phone regardless of carrier?
I don't want to go to SGII with the nexus here, but i'm seriously worried about buyer's remorse when this phone is released.
 
i called the utica, michigan store, and he told me that it was going to be released tomorrow but its been delayed, he doesnt know why but he thinks maybe they were doing an update. i know you are all well aware, i just figured i would tell you anyways.
 
Considering nowhere on the terms does it specify this, if it is in fact true, VZW/Living Social are violating terms of the deal, and you should be able to recieve a full refund.

I printed mine off, it's safely at home with all the promotional fliers that verizon keeps sending me, but I was trying to bring it up in the living social app on my OG Droid and it keeps force closing... my other vouchers come up in the app, just fine. I think it's a conspiracy.

Since I've been able to do this since rooting (it would have been in the top) I'm looking most forward to beaming with the wife and that stunning screen and resolution! Although she's wanting to just get a new phone right now and not wait for the GN. I might be unbeamable soon :rolleyes:
