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

[zx10droid]

I know im late, but welcome back Han.

Now I'll go back and read all the pages in between to see if I missed anything important.

let me save you the trouble. not really, britishturbo on twitter said that the vzw phones are in warehouses now and will be released the 8th, pydepypper and other have said preoders next week release on 15th, thats about it

Guys, I just want to apologize for the chaos I made. I said what I felt, but I think I could have done a better job handling it.

My wife read a few of the pages during the fallout, and said, "My, someone thinks he's the center of the universe doesn't he?"

I'm sorry that I dragged everybody into my disappointment. You guys deserve better than that.

Again, I apologize.

Absolutely NO need to apologize. Welcome back to kindercare!

Did you get my PM? Ran across those on DealMac and immediately thought of you.

Set Your Location

So i went into Verizon website and searched 5801 and there was an added Bose Bluetooth speaker and when you scroll all the way down to compatible devices it has the Galaxy Nexus with a broken link icon for picture. Didn't they used to show a pic of the Charge?


Or am I looking too far into this?

Yup I posted about this yesterday... the URL of the broken icon is:

Damn....I thought I read on here that it was LTE....probably a rumor.

The confusion was because Docomo has LTE, but it is a GSM/LTE combo. But since there is no GSM/LTE GNex, their version is without LTE. They do have the GSII HD LTE though, so don't feel sorry for them

 

[tpags]

Don't see the broken link icon at all...

When you click on the Bose Bluetooth speaker scroll right beneath and click the compatible devices tab and scroll down to galaxy nexus.

Yep, my bad.

I guess I was super ninja'd by like a whole day.

You know what.. this movie gets better and better.

Han comes back (welcome back, btw! We missed you!!) and now I'm feeling a change in the overall mood. This is the beginning to the end. Eventually we will get this darn phone and all of us will cry, rejoice, cheer, and share a beer together. I simply cannot wait for that day. I'll have my post-nexus speech prepared. Hopefully some "i hope you dance" starts playing in the background.

And one day... I hope we all revisit the highs and lows of this thread and share a laugh. Hell, maybe even from our browser of the very fast Galaxy Nexus. (sheds tear)

Someone PLEASE get Lifetime to sponsor this. It's pure gold!

So you've come back just as the assault on the Death Star is almost over, huh Mr. Solo.

Seriously, glad to see you back. You've been here since the beginning and it wouldn't seem right to finish the journey without you.

Thank God for wives. They often go right to the right point. Personally, I accept your apology. Your post caused a lot of friction, here. Thank God for your wife .. welcome back, bro.

They do have the GSII HD LTE though, so don't feel sorry for them

Would the GSII HD LTE work here on Verizon?

 

[zx10droid]

Would the GSII HD LTE work here on Verizon?

no, once again, they use a GSM/LTE setup not CDMA/LTE like verizon

 

[Steven58]

No verizon csr chats, folks, remember? Unless you have real info...no joke chats, just to remind you, k?

Well now we have conflicting reports - EarlyMon said CSR chats were fine just up towards the top of this page.

Lifetime? ... Hmm star wars, star trek, phones, tablets, football. Yeah your right, sounds like a lifetime movie... Hehe.

Sorry if I missed it, but did you happen to make it to the store where Drexel's mom reported seeing nexus ads?

 

[AntimonyER]

Well now we have conflicting reports - EarlyMon said CSR chats were fine just up above there.

CSR chats are ok when they are for informational purposes. Not ok for laughing at CSRs not in the know.

I knew I had read that before.

 

[nkk]

welcome back han!

Hey...just because he is back does not mean he gets to keep his name. He was, and still is, Hans Olo.

P.S. Welcome back!!! Have a drink

-Nkk

 

[EarlyMon]

Of course, per the link in the OP.

There's no conflict. Steven deleted a post that basically just talked down to a CSR, we were skyping the whole time on it - as Steven said, no joke chats.

Hope this clarifies, thanks!

Thats actually not what Steven just wrote (first sentence)..i would have to agree that it appears there are conflicting directions

Han..I need a ruling

Edit..I stand corrected Early...but I still want a ruling
