    Lines at the stores -- Looks like the Nexus is selling out!

    That was my original plan, I'm happy I banked on less demand at the Astoria location.

    Best Buy Finally Called and Asked Me To Return The GN

    Plus, if they end up firing the guy who sold a piece of merchandise in the store's stock and system without having to bypass anything saying he wasn't allowed, he likely can walk away with a very nice wrongful termination suit.

    Best Buy Finally Called and Asked Me To Return The GN

    Here's the thing I don't think anyone has mentioned... That phone is currently out in the wild in the US and active on VZW. As long as that handset is out in the world and in the hands of a customer, the entire country has a better chance of it being released. If the device gets returned, they...

    What incentive does Verizon have to release the GNex?

    I've been to stores and heard from real live people off of the internet that the Razr and Rezound simply aren't selling... at all. Verizon's incentive to sell the GNex is to make some profit this holiday season and maintain the massive flood of off contract OGD users.

    Is that due to the video issue? If so, what is the cause, is it simply native speed or architecture?

    Engadget Spec Update - Exynos?

    Either Panda or P3 tweeted yesterday that the i515 is VZW and the i9250 is Vodafone. This says to me that they haven't seen an i9250 but believe it exists. I HIGHLY doubt this will launch in its original form without a TI CPU. They made a big deal of that partnership and are not going to just...

    Screen snap of nexus prime?

    Lookign at my OGD right now, I see the bottom bezel on the Prime to be on par with the top of the OGD. It is far from anything to get bummed out about. Look at the iPhone's bezel, that thing is f'ing huge and nobody seems to give a crap.

    Screen snap of nexus prime?

    You guys are crazy. That's maybe 1cm of bezel. The fact that the contrast of the screen goes that black is awesome if it can fool this many people. Hold your phone sideways, why do you want your thumb blocking your screen? With a mic, antennas and ports behind that bezel it allows for a thinner...

    This picture of the Prime looks acurate

    I'm expecting something similar to this, with the orientation shifted: 8.8–11mm. Just longer than SGS2. Metal chassis. Slight hump at one end to keep it from rocking and house parts, similar to Nexus S.
