I'm sure this question has already been asked, but..

Is everyone getting a screen protector for their Nexus since it unfortunately does not have gorilla glass?

I personally have never owned a screen protector. Do the screen protectors often get annoying after awhile, or can you barely tell you're using one?

I'll be using the one that comes with the TPU case, I had it on my Galaxy S2, and it was fantastic for being free.

I wouldn't use a phone without a screen protector.

Do you go snooping around websites for image folders and stuff? :p

Or are these from previous leaks and you just remember where these stores hide stuff on their website?

I received a call from Verizon this morning about the 4G promo (after getting it noted in my account) that it's a CHICAGOLAND area thing ONLY. She had her doubts that I would be able to use it - despite being in the Chicagoland area. I will fight tooth and nail to use it. She said if I can use it "more power to(me)" and "couple it with your NE2 loyalty, you could save some money."

Like I'm going to allow them to deny me AFTER they gave the go-ahead AND I apply for it...pfffft!

Point of this post: Those of you living outside of the Chicagoland area, DO NOT be surprised if the $100 4g promo does NOT apply!

I sure hope your rep was wrong sir. May I ask why they called you after getting a note in your account. Did you send them an email or something?
 
So, I saw that Verizon tweeted that they are giving a limited-time $50 credit on Motorola accessories to people buying a Droid Razr...
Twitter

and I thought, "they're doing one last push of their razr before pushing the Gnex!" :D

And then I thought, "wow, that's just stupid logic... Have I become that desperate?" :(

And then I thought, "it's stupid Verizon's fault for making me go through this" :mad:

And then I thought, "wow, I'm so lame... It's still just a phone, and will essentially still do all the same things that my Droid does..." :confused:

It's dumb, I know... I thought I could convince myself to gain a little perspective by typing this out, but even as I do, I just remembered that the Gnex is made of diamond and gold, and excretes rubys and pearls. So, stop criticizing me, all you haters!

:o

Lol. I know what you mean. My gf is literally getting pissed off at me as about every third sentence out of my mouth is talking about this phone. She's hung up on me once or twice because she got tired of it. I guess that's what you would call being obsessed with a phone. Sad thing is its not even out.

:D

Yeah, she just wants me to stop talking about it... I think she'd rather I ignore her, balls deep in the phone, then hear me ramble on, and on, and on, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on,, and on..............

Well, you get the point. :D :rolleyes:

I did - I sent them an email Saturday evening about it. I persisted in calling because I'm impatient. She looked into my account and just wanted to talk to me about it. "No promises it will work," she said. I'm capable of paying the $300 for the phone, but my inner frugal monster says "might as well try it."

She apologized profusely about being late in replying...but I didn't mind.
 
lmao..touche Mr. soy, touche.

So I am a noob compared to some of you guys, but I just don't understand why Verizon has not made any sort of announcement about this phone? Isn't this phone supposed to be revolutionary?

If this was Apple there would be so much anticipation by even people other than us tech geeks.

Verizon seems to be so bad at advertising newer phones. Why would they do this from a marketing standpoint? Makes no sense to me.. :confused:

Actually, I'd wager the damage was done more by the diamonds and less the softer metal prongs. ;)

Unless you got her an engagement ring with cubic zirconia? :D

One single diamond in the ring. It's a square cut (asscher cut) and the prongs are on the corners. Cathedral setting with smooth, rounded shank leading up to the diamond so there's no way the side of the diamond could even touch the screen like that. No way the diamond caused it.

Why does the OP have any date in it ever??? That's what I don't get. That OP subject has had many "confirmed" dates in it, and so far NONE of them have come true.

I'm not sure which is worse, Scott's Kiss of Death or the OP Curse.

Keep the scoptimism coming! We need something to cling to.
 
Han I love these posts I crack up every time...thanks for keeping us in the loop, as a side note, I think we should see if CBS would be willing to pick up a show based on Han and his interactions with his source. I'm thinking sitcom with lots of product placements
Now who to cast?

Well I texted Cheetara about this whole delay (again) rumor.

Well good luck to all of us that got a "note" then, we'll see what happens.
