Hey - another Des Moines person! I ordered online but I'm tempted to rush over and join you anyway just to see the device. :)

I can't decide if I want to play with a demo before getting mine tomorrow or not. I kind of want to keep building the anticipation and have my first experience be opening the box to my own device.

Another guy just showed up and he said he was a lurked on AF! Also expecting another AF member I met via pm. And another guy just showed. Looks like there's some interest here.
 
girlfriend gave up tryign to get it in line. Called up the corporate store and they said they have 50 in stock which very well might sell out before the end of today. This has gotta be the most successful android phone launch in history for first day?? Now think we're gonna get it through letstalk and save the 150
 
Argh. Just talked to a csr on the phone. The $100 promotion is targeted to certain phone numbers only, so if you didn't get a mailer, you probably won't qualify.

Also talked to the VP guy who sent me the Dinc2. I'll be getting the $50 account credit once I return their precious phone.

Fair enough.
 
After watching the YouTube video of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus initial announcement, I was hooked. Initially I hunted for hours on the web looking for information on the phone and features, along with anything about ICS. I've installed Eclipse and all the Java and Android SDKs, in anticipation of beginning to program on this phone. I opened a couple of Java books to refresh my understanding and learn a few new Java skills.

Then, as I was pouring over the forums, I found this thread. At first, I was simply dumbfounded by the number of posts in this thread, as compared to similar threads on other forums. As I read more, and as I patiently waited, I was drawn (or even consumed) to follow and participate in this thread, which I soon realized had become a community. You guys poked fun and posted some crazy videos and Stephen even found a live Nexus phone to play with, and enthusiastically reported back. But even through the ups and downs of playing the constant waiting game for a phone that always seemed to be about "two weeks" away from release, everyone was welcomed. A few were disciplined, as the moderators held us in check during the tougher times when we were more prone to pick on one another. But we've made it through to the final day, and I feel like I've made a few new friends. I will miss this thread, but I'm glad the wait is finally over.

Thanks especially to the moderators, all of you. And thanks to all who participated with their comments, information, jokes, off-topic posts, and ever changing avatars. It's been a blast, and I look forward to continued conversations with many of you, as we all join together with this one item that seems to draw us together, a new phone. Seems silly when you look at it that way.

I enjoyed meeting some fellow Nexicans at the store this morning. First time being face to face with someone as excited as I am about this phone. My CSR let me do the initial setup, avoiding backup assistant and such for now.

That's all for now. I have to go play with my new phone. Look forward to meeting up later in another thread.

Nope, you're not the only one.

I ordered mine at 1AM EST and I'm glad I did. The order status page says that it has already shipped, but does not give a tracking number yet.

I won't be able to get out of work until late this afternoon and wanted to guarantee that I'd have the phone for the weekend.

It also keeps me from having to deal with traffic and annoying people.

Where is this order status page? I cannot seem to find it.

Thanks...

Edit... nevermind, Its on the confirmation email :)

My status says shipped as well with no tracking number. I ordered about an hour ago.

I know which web page I'll be blowing up all day.
 
I got mine this morning. I was there at opening for my appointment and was the first in town to get one. Very impressed so far and have already gotten my update to 4.0.2.

Now I just have to work in a 3G area today. Can't wait to go home and play with some 4G.

Enjoy folks! I know I will.
 
Thanks for the rollercoaster ride guys!

Thank you steven for the invite to the ride.

Hopefully my store keeps their word and holds a phone for me when I get off work.
