I've been trying to call them to see if they're actually shipping them out today (they told me they would ship out next week as recently as yesterday afternoon), but their phone lines have been slammed. I waited for over 10 mins and hung up. Has anyone confirmed they actually have physical stock now and are shipping out today?

For those interested in ordering with them, use coupon code "20OFFLS" for $20 off (go figure)

I spoke with them on the phone on Monday and they said they wouldn't be shipping out till the 28th. I placed my order with them yesterday and in the afternoon (after their closed hours) i received a notice saying it was instock and they would be preparing the item soon, I just have to confirm with them that I want it and method of shipping (which i find odd because when you check out you choose your shipping method). Their email isnt very clear on how I'm supposed to confirm the order with them (i replied to the email, but have not received any notice from them).

Called them twice this morning and just waited on hold over 10 mins each time so I've given up so far.

Still no luck trying to contact them via phone. I was looking @ my order status earlier, it had the status of "not processed." Just looked at it again and now its changed to "ready to ship" so we shall see.

just called them, they have them and ship if ordered before 3pm CST...just not sure I wanna spend 750 for only 16GB of memory, I'm still torn between this and the SGS2 SR

I feel you there. I was debating between the SR and the GN as well. Factors for me were I don't store a lot on my phone anyways, so 16gb will work for me. I'm also coming from a Nexus One, so the idea of going from unlocked, no-bloatware to carrier specific really played a part on my decision. I also travel to Japan once or twice a year, so having the GN will make popping in a rented Sim easy.

 

[Gary86]

That's true..I really don't have a lot on my iPhone right now. I have my iPad for videos when I travel. It could be handy when I get stationed back on a ship and travel too. Plus we all know this phone will get updates first.

 

[Bong Bubble]

16 GB is not alot of space when recording alot of HD video, I still can't get over the no SDHC!

 

[Gary86]

Yeah. I usually record video then export to my Mac. I can do this via android file transfer right?

Already sold out @ expansys

 

[thisphuckinguy]

I feel like this is too much for a phone. I remember spending around $560 for NS. I was expecting the same

yes

 

[Neon01]

Figures... My f-ing credit card (Amex) denied the transaction on grounds that it could have been fraudulent, so my order never went out. Oh, and it looks like they're out of stock now. So f-ing pissed at amex right now.

At 8:11 EST the Expansys www site says "100+ In Stock Now"

 

[stdeane]

I can't except that this phone is $220 more than the S2, considered as good or better.

I very much doubt that's updated. I called in after receiving the email about the credit card cancellation and waited a full half hour on the phone with no answer. They got absolutely slammed today, thanks in no small part to sites like Engadget basically advertising for them:

Galaxy Nexus shipping now in America: unlocked for $750 through Expansys -- Engadget

So yeah, I really doubt they bothered updating the website.

I would take the SR if you are looking for fast speeds. I believe VZW will be the only US carrier with the 4G LTE Model and I doubt a VZW LTE Nexus will be able to run LTE on AT&T, so SR ftw if you want LTE.
