OK, Panda stated yesterday that the winner of challenge would receive GNEX before release. I dont want to put words in his mouth or "read to much" into what he stated, as im sure that gets old.

Panda Tweet:
Yep.. Its a gonna be a vzw lte version and details to follow.. And YOU will get it the day before launch.. Hell I may sign it. Lol


that being said. this is in the contest rules:

21. WINNER?S LIST: The winner?s list will be posted online after December 5, 2011 on

UH OH!!!!!!!!
 
That may not mean anything. The contest ends on 11/21 and the winners will be contacted directly. They may just not PUBLICLY announce the winners until 12/5.

That's what I was thinking. Probably when you hold a contest like this, you have to eventually post the list of winners for legal reasons. I don't think that statement implies that the release date for the phones will be after December 5.
 
They'll likely start sending phones to winners once the phone is released. Whenever that occurs.
 
From what I read is that they will get the phones weeks after. Something like 6 weeks after the winners are announced.

your missing the entire point of my OP!

look at Pandas tweet, we will get before release
I read it, but it would be nice if he backed up anything with a source, especially things which don't appear to be inline with other release date clues and legal documentation.

you are right as per the terms, but "knowing" panda, i have a hard time believing he would tweet that winners would receive before release if not true. especially knowing the rabid unforgiving android obsessional community

i see your point, i just know he is the best insider we have and has proven himself time and time again. he is definitely not an ish starter. not to mention he works for el goog now!

That makes us both right. Panda knows best so he must know they will ship the phones hopefully next day and the few week window is just legal talk.

Isn't he giving his away as his own little contest?

VS910 4G Kangwich

now i did not see anything stating that, but if so that would make his tweet a little easier to digest in relation to the google terms of contest! that being said, i just cant see this phone hitting before black friday!
 
i have only seen one contest regarding galaxy nexus. if there are others, i am not aware. i do not know of him having his own contest. if so, then obviously what i have found is baseless.
