Thanks for everyone that replied lol.

If I buy an app for my current phone does it carry over to my new phone???

Sorry never felt the need to pay for apps so haven't dipped into it.

Yes, it will transfer. Also, the apps you purchase can be installed on multiple devices.

Another Verizon news release and no galaxy nexus.

Verizon Wireless And Motorola Mobility Introduce Next-Generation DROID XYBOARD Tablets On The Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Network


Edit: I am a ninja!!!

White RAZR confirmed... Newest press release: Verizon Wireless And Motorola Mobility Introduce Next-Generation DROID XYBOARD Tablets On The Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Network

 

[abert78160]

Yes. It will be attached to the google account you buy it with

Does that mean I can buy without having an Android phone? I have a Google account but I still have a non-smart phone. I'd like to get some apps for cheap as I'm planning on getting the Nexus.

A slew of popular apps suddenly are 10 cents in the Android Market | Android Central

• Great Little War Game
• SketchBook Mobile
• Paper Camera
• Sound Hound
• Asphalt 6
• Fieldrunners HD
• Swiftkey
• Minecraft

(So far)

Jumping on this! Never bought a 3rd party keyboard before (although tried demos) Plus some games to get me through dead-week

Xyboard press release

Damn those Ninjas are sneaky fast

Also,
I know it has been said before, but that might be the worst name in the history of electronics.

Hm, well if you ever come around one of these boring perfect playmates be sure to pass her off to me, I sure don't mind barbie doll perfection! That being said, I would think I'm at the top of my college game right now, putting aside all levels of ego-ness.

OFF-TOPIC POST ABOUT WOMEN:

Meh. She's cute, but too fake for my liking. There comes a point in time where the airbrushed, "perfect", blonde, Barbie Doll-esque, Playboy Playmate look becomes boring. That point came like 20 years ago, IMO. It's just so over-the-top perfect that looking through pages and pages of these girls, they all start to look plastic.

Give me some REAL looking girls any day of the week. Imperfections are what make people unique, and they are what make people beautiful.

Whatever happened to the droid 4 being released this week along with the Galaxy Nexus?

Lahbstah in snow much more entertaining. And delicious.

That ain't a lobster - THIS is a lobster. Pulled out of a wreck SCUBA diving off of LBI in Jersey. That thing did not want to get in the pot.

 

[Highwayman]

With all the traveling I have done recently, I probably missed this, but just in case.... On Monday Verizon did make mention of the GNexus in a press release... no release information... just made mention...

Happy 1st Anniversary, Verizon Wireless 4G LTE!

 

[Mooem]

Kind of funny. No dates for the Xyboard or white Razrs either!

 

[SamMax]

Moto get's all of Verizon's attention

 

[jmanderson10]

So obviously take this with a grain of salt but the Verizon reseller close to me just took my name down and said I could pick the phone up on the 8th at 0900 when they open. Obviously I will call back tomorrow but this the first time anyone has confirmed to me personally that 1) they are getting it and 2) there is a date I can get it.

Again wouldn't be surprised if he was wrong but he did check with a mysterious person in the background.

Hi guys. My sister texted me a couple of minutes ago:

I texted back:

I don't think I'll be able to get any info from her about anything else for a while.

I hereby publicly profess my undying love and admiration for Hanette.

OT (Dexter):

(Spoiler alert for those who haven't seen it)

Spoiler

Oh no. I think Batista is going to be killed. Since Quinn wasn't there to back him up, he will be fired.

And did anyone notice that in the previews for next week, it looks like Dexter and Deb are about to kiss? What the frak is that all about??

Spoiler

I don't think he'll be killed. Someone will save him just in time. And it doesn't surprise me that they could throw in a little semi-incestuous element (remember - they aren't really brother and sister.) Even weirder...how awkward do you think shooting that scene is considering those two used to be married?

 

[johninc]

Sort of OT:
What's the best way to transfer contacts from Android to a fruit phone? Not for me, my daughter wants one when I get my Nex. I'm thinking Backup Assistant, or maybe letting the Verizon guy do it, but maybe there's a better way. Thanks.

 

[johnnybirdman]

Come on 12/8.... hey batter .... 12/9 doesn't work for me so here's hoping.

When I was in school there wasn't really anything "dead" about "dead week". That being said, give me the Nexus.

 

[nyg010]

Easiest way: Let the Verizon guy do it, they have hardware hook ups for phone transfers.
Fastest way: Just back up via backup assistant, or any phone backup app in the market.

Yup. Backup Assistant would work, I think.
Does the fruit have that? I just thought of that. I don't know if they do

iPhone can sync contacts from the Google Account via iTunes. Just make sure to log into Gmail-->Contacts to make sure all the contacts she wants are there first.
