Man I really was hoping to be able to ditch my Pre today:mad: but oh well I guess a couple more weeks won't be too long. It would be nice to just have a date for the release or something. The money I have saved for the phone is burning a whole in my pocket, I almost bought test Drive Unlimited 2 for my new gaming PC i just put together. But a little voice in my head said "the nexus s might be out on mon" :D
 
I was hoping for an announcement from Sprint today. But it looks like it won't happen.

I was really hoping this would be out today. I was going to lose my upgrade so of course I bought a phone on March 31st with the hopes that I would be exchanging it within 30 days for the Nexus S. Doesn't sound like that'll be happening so now I'm stuck with a phone I don't want for 2 years. I wish Sprint would at least announce something so I knew!

Also, I signed up to receive information from Sprint about the Nexus S and haven't heard anything. My local Sprint store told me Sprint usually sends out an email/text 1-2 weeks prior to releases. Has anybody else done this?

Same thing on my end, not a single word. :-(

Fyi. I did the same thing, for the same reasons. I just returned my new phone over The weekend. When I got home I called up sprint and had them reverse my plan to what it used to be. They rolled back my commitment date reversed the $10 premium data charge, and even reset my upgrade eligibility. So basically I got to test drive an evo for a month and then go back to my old phone and wait for the nexus to come out.

So go return your upgrade call sprint and wait for the nexus

Twice in the past I was sent the "release information" from Sprint the day after it was released, sooo this "sign up to receive information" is pretty worthless.
 
Weird I still see the NS4g on Sprint's home page. Cleared my cache to be sure and yes it is still showing there as Coming Soon..
 
Just was curious so I thought I would hit Sprint CC chat up and asked what the delay was in releasing this device.

Reply from the Rep:

04/25/2011 01:49:12PM Agent : "We are not aware about it. This decision has been made at the higher level of management. Currently, there is no such information about the launch of the Nexus S 4G"
04/25/2011 01:49:52PM ME: "So they have no idea when it will be released then"
04/25/2011 01:50:51PM Agent (Tony C): "We don't have this information as of now. However, you signup for update on the following link: www.sprint.com/nexus"

So I would say its pretty useless to keep trying to bug the CSRs via the sprint chat as they are useless and it appears they are pretty much reading scripts.. but that is what you get from LVL 1 support from most companies out there. Down to the waiting game of will Sprint actually release this device before May 1 or will it be delayed past the launch of the EVO 3D.
 
Yeah, I got the same in chat too. HOWEVER, when I went to the Sprint store to pick up a OverDrive Pro mobile hotspot (my internet is down at home, and work from home), I asked the rep at the store, and he said that he had quite a few in the back (showed me one in the box), but said he couldn't give me the one reserved for me (I preordered on 4/4), until 5/1 or thereabouts.

Interesting.....makes the wait that much more frustrating....I want me NS4G!!!! :)

Not that I don't trust you but if Sprint stores already had them in stock in the back, I would think we would have seen a leaked pic of some sort on some tech website? I mean also how can stores be receiving phones when the phone hasn't even been officially announced by Sprint. If they did have them in stock and if the phone doesn't even have a SOLID release date I don't see why they couldn't of sold you one. The HTC Arrive came early to Sprint stores and they sold them off to people before its Sunday release. This NS4G release is about the weirdest I have seen for any tech product in the history of electronics!
 
Richard... that is crazy! I did read somewhere (maybe in this thread?) that someone had spoken with a Samsung rep who said it would be out the 28th.... With the Arrive, I got the email the Thursday before a Sunday launch... I hope that is the case here.... I guess we'll continue to play this stupid waiting game...
 
Hey it is crazy. I wanted to drool all over that box and phone too....<wipes mouth with paper towel> Apparently Google is very strict about selling the phone the street date and not before. Personally I feel like that person in the commercial about lump sum money stuff - "It's my phone, and I want it NOW!!!" :)

Any seconds on this motion?
