Double interesting when you take into account the fact that car warehouse only listed white or black, no sizes

Exactly. That would create an interesting twist if there was only a 32GB model available. The other thing to take into consideration is that there's two models neglecting color (D820, D821)

Yeah, I feel all Verizon's users pain. I know some people live in areas where switching doesn't make sense, but the only way you can get through to them is by voting with your wallet. :(

But I'm still confused at the words "starting at".

That implies more expensive options, although it could be as simple as accessory packages
 
The glitch in Google's site that prematurely showed the Nexus 5 said "starting at." They would only word it that way if there was more than one capacity. Also, many leaks that have come out have shown a 16GB version.

350 for 16
400 for 32

That is what will happen.

Or maybe based on carrier. Maybe the unlocked GSM will be 349 while one tied to Sprint is 399? Probably not, but just a wild guess.
 
Does that comment mean they're on sale soon or is that just a comment? Sorry, on my mobile and it doesnt wanna open the article >.<

Last year a relative of mine pre-ordered the nexus 4 through CW, and there were no different versions to choose from, they just sent out the 16GB models. Could be the same situation here tbh. Which model they have stocked is another question though!
 
T-Mobile also only had the 16GB versions. It seemed that the 8GB version wasn't available anywhere else but Google Play. Maybe it will be the same but with the 32GB version.

C'mon guys this is obviously fake. Firstly, I don't think anyone has reported getting a Nexus 5 into their cart on Google Play. Who knows if a page like this even exists yet. Secondly, the render is not even the official render of the Nexus 5, it has that old, fake wallpaper not the wallpaper from the official render.

Yeah, someone did some more digging and found the guy's G+ page and he apparently admitted that it was fake. I'm also still suspect about the Tel-Aviv invite. I think that's also fake.

The only thing left to show off when announced is whatever KitKat brings. This phone has been the most leaked device.

I agree, and I think that's what's really driving me bonkers. I'd almost want no leaks, or at least leaks just before an announcement. Here it's been dragging on for weeks with no official word yet. That part is the most annoying to me... Ugh...
 
This is painful. But not as painful as the rollercoaster ride for the GNex on Verizon two years ago. That was a ride I'll never forget.

This is pretty tame compared to how the Gnex was. Rumors started in August, was officially announced 10/19, GSM version was released 11/17, Verizon version 12/15. So we waited nearly 4 months. lol.
 
I'm beginning to think the G+ conference tomorrow will be where the Nexus 5 will be announced. In some ways, it makes a lot of sense for Google to get as many people to watch the unveiling as they can, while also promoting one of their services. I think we are getting to close to launch for them to put off the announcement any longer.
