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

[Bonez]

No, I live in the city, but we have friends who live in Naperville. That Verizon by Best Buy on 59 is great.

And I'm about a little over an hour from all of you Chicagoans. We should have one big Nexus launch party in Chi-town with Phandroid members.

Han, that's hilarious! I live in the city too but have family out in Naperville (headed out there this weekend)! I was wondering if I should get the nexus there before going back to the city or just staying in the city to grab it...

If you are like many of us, you will have to catch up on all the work you have bypassed in an effort to stay current on this darned phone.

Shhhhhhh. If we don't talk about it, it can't hear us and won't need to be completed......

I might have missed it skimming through with my morning coffee... First Nexus buyer (UK) returned his phone. Mistakenly got sold a Dev model.

First Galaxy Nexus Sold in UK, Owner Has to Exchange It

Finally, something I Ninja's instead of being Ninja'd!

First Samsung Galaxy Nexus customer given a developer's device, but all ends well

Too funny

Well folks, it took a whopping 10.5 hours to get from 35k to 36k posts!

CONGRATS BabyBlues!

We really have to pick up the pace, here...

 

[Rrrracer]

What is your favorite sandwich? And how the heck do I get my sandwich before I'm even done paying most of the time?

Ice Cream Sandwich! Duh!

 

[BabyBlues]

Congrats! Now tell it you're sorry it'll be going back to Verizon shortly when you get your Gnex. You're sure the Dinc2 is a nice phone and all, and someone will give it a nice, loving home.. but for now she's just there to let your OG Droid go peacefully into that long, dark night.

It's his Rebound girl!!!!

Ice Cream Sandwich ported to a Galaxy S II... and the people rejoice -- Engadget

SGSII just got ICS ported over.

Korean digital times reported Samsung will begin updating SGSII to ICS in Europe and Korea on December after Nexus is released worldwide. This means verizon one is very close to launch.

 

[Digital504]

It's Noon central time and that means...nothing.

fellow lurker joining in on the crazyness that is this thread! just sent a text message to my cousin who is a GM at at Best Buy Mobile.. hoping for good news!

Yesterday I practiced dropkicking my OG Droid across the living room(college bball had a little to do with it) in preparation to ninja 40k.

I asked the Lord to tell me
Why my house is such a mess.
He asked if I'd been "computering,"
And I had to answer "yes."

He told me to get off my fanny
And tidy up the house.
And so I started cleaning up...
The smudges off my mouse.

I wiped and shined the topside.
That really did the trick...
I was just admiring my work.
I didn't mean to "click."

But click, I did, and OOPS! I found
A real absorbing site.
That I got SO way into it.
I was into it all night.

Nothing's changed except my mouse
It's very, very shiny.
I guess my house will stay a mess...
While I sit here on my hiney.

I love that!! Hilarious!

 

[DrexelDragon]

MY DINC2 IS HEEEEERRRRREEEE!!!

Same thing for me...Except they sent me a Droid 3! Kinda jealous of you

 

[stgmngr210]

I own a Jimmy John's so I think that is a fantastic idea guys! While the sandwiches do bring me happiness...I am currently in a Nexus void. Wish Verizon would stop playing these damn games!

I work on a college campus, and I would DIE without Jimmy Johns, between the staff, students, and faculty ordering in the building, without exaggeration, Jimmy Johns is here at LEAST 4x a day.

Now I'm hungry

OMG! ROFL! I would love to do that but must wait till monday!

 

[lennyk1313]

This is definitely the most active forum thread tht I have been a part of with out a doubt, and a Great group of guys/gals. I don't know if I can contribute this only to he fact jt we are all waiting the release of SGN or is it because the people who are interested in SGN are cool people?

Good Morning.

My name is Bob and I am a nexaholic.

More cowbell will not cure this.

I think I need some more cowbell. Hilarious.

Acri SNL cowbell - YouTube

I got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell.

Sorry if I'm an ignorant west coaster but you guys keep talking about Jimmy Johns. Do they have restaurants out there? I only know the name because of the Sausage. lol

Dude... if you know the date and can't say it... then don't say anything at all. Why say "nanner, nanner, I know the date and you don't". They are both windsocks... just one slightly less than the other... and since they are friends... all the worse!

I'm not entirely sure they are real friends, yes they are both on twitter, the difference is that BMX doesn't intensionally spout randomness like "oh, put up your money folks, won't be released any time soon...then only a few tweets later say " Google confirms US release... and then and then after that, "don't blame me, remember, I told you the date wasn't firm".. bla, bla bla, that is windsock behavior. BMX clearly confirms only what he can, he doesn't go so blatantly back and forth.

 

[mshane]

Decided I would chime in since all of us lurkers are being called to action....

Like so many others I was set for the Bionic, and was actually going to Colorado Elk hunting the week of release so decided I would wait (didn't want to trash a brand new phone in the mountains a couple days after I got it). I had already started reading about something better (Prime) and have been reading this thread since the begining.

My OG is on it's last legs, but I am holding out... My wife also thinks I am insane the way I follow this thread... I keep saying "It's coming out next week" and she just rolls her eyes.

And finally.... Hello my name is Shane and I'm a Nexiholic....
