Only if you get someone to take a picture of the manager or reps face as you try to bite some guy's neck at Verizon.
AAAHHGGG! This is like a train wreck that I hate seeing, but can't look away from!
I think I'm set to ROM my Inc for the last time. Kind of an epic moment for me. My son's Droid 2 is pooping out after a year, (Yet another reason why I will never own another device that says Moto on it) so I am setting it up for him. I currently have MIUI's most recent build on it and plan on putting pure GB on it for him.
If I can pick this up on Monday (as I expect to), it will be a glorious day!
OK guys I have some cool info!
I went to return the Razr just now, explained to the supervisor that I had good Intel that the Nexus would be available for pre order on Monday. He disagreed with proclaiming they didn't have any knowledge of any release. So I still was insistent that I wanted to return so I waited to deal with the Very forthcoming rep that sold me the Razr. I told her why I was returning the Razr she says we will have the phone the same time it's online but they really didn't know when that would be. So I told her I Knew it would be available online Monday, so!!!! She says let me check our stock room she goes in the back and is back there for a few minutes, the supervisor then walks over to me still sticking to his guns with the "we don't know " attitude then the sales rep comes back and asks the manager to follow her they are in the back room for about 5 minutes she brings the Nexus accessories and says "Scott we WILL HAVE THE PHONE HERE WHEN IT LAUNCHES" I say is it in the back and she just stairs at me and says nothing then she says the boxes are sealed I can't open them and I say OK that's what I needed to know I'll see you on Monday!
I feel like we're twins. I too have a DInc and an iPad 2, I'm running the latest MIUI, and I'm putting stock on my DInc before giving it to my girlfriend to replace her Eris which is pooping out.
Are you using the super mario lock screen?
I don't know if this is anything....but I work at BestBuy (in BestBuy Mobile) and we have a big ole box that my manager won't let me open. It doesn't say Samsung, Google, nothing. He's saying he doesn't know what it is either, but it has our typical bestbuy do not open until 11/21 wrapper on it.
This was what happened to me at the local Verizon store. I couldn't help myself anymore. I used the code word "Sarah Connor" for the Nexus but the rep wouldn't budge. I had to take matters into my own hands.

I'm listening....please give us the deets
Guys is it bad that I absolutely LOVE the DINC2???
It's so thin, all black, it's like a Darth Vader phone! Screen is nice, and bigger than my crappy OG Droid.
I'm on the phone now with Tech Support because this phone's MEID number is on the "negative list", so they have to remove that portion of it before it can be activated.
They said "Wow" when I explained to them how a VP called me back and offered me the phone. I guess it's not normal procedure.
But this is really nice. I was expecting a cardboard box and it actually came in a new DINC2 box with an extra battery cover on it!
I'm not trying to urinate in anyone's cheerios, but we had people coming out of the woodwork last night claiming their local corporate VZW store had confirmed GNex in stock on Monday. Based on today's developments, that seems extremely unlikely.

I remember you posted about the phone call with the VP, but how did you get him to send you a Dinc2?
I'm positive it's in my local Verizon store right now!
She didn't even know it was back there until she went and checked. I could tell she wanted to tell me so bad but couldn't.
Wow, the capacitive buttons change orientation! That's creepy weird!!
