where did you sell all your phones lol?

Ebay or a family member for significantly reduced price.

Remember when the Motorola RAZR was $1000 and everyone wanted one. I still miss mine because it was so thin. Maybe this and a Nexus 7 3G would be better?!

I have my Nexus One on 2.3.6 and a miserable iPhone 4 that reboots or turns on when it feels like. The good thing is I'm trying out prepaid and a new carrier so it's been a nice side project.

Borrowing an iPhone 3GS into which I threw in a T-Mobile prepaid SIM. Still hoping I can show off my new toy at Thanksgiving dinner next week

I sold my iPhone 5 and picked up a Galaxy Nexus from the Play Store while I waited. I didn't think the new Nexus would be so cheap to start, so I wasn't expecting to jump on it so quickly. I returned the GNex and got a full refund, but using my old Xperia arc S with ICS is brutal. I never should have updated it. I would have been better off with Gingerbread. This thing is painfully slow. I'm done typing out full Google searches before it even shows the first letter I typed. Tap on Twitter and 6 seconds later, it opens.

My buddy ordered a 3G Nexus 7 on launch day, and has shipping confirmation for Monday. My transaction is still pending.

Same story with my GS2. If you're bored try rooting with a custom ROM. Mine was awesome with custom software but I had to give it up and go stock to access my corporate email. The stock ics rom on my phone is crap.

I noticed that HTC Nexus One (on the home page) for $80... I may pick that up for the next month as my contract with Verizon is up.

sold my tmobile GS2 thinking that i would have my Nexus in hand but of course i had to go buy a $20 flip phone from walgreens.. I AM GOING CRAZY!!!!

 

[Darthic]

Luckily decided not to sell my HTC One S til I tried out the N4. So not horribly suffering but will if its not here before Thanksgiving!

I'm using my GNex that just updated to 4.2! This is more than enough to hold me over until the 4 is back in stock in the Play Store.

I signed up with AT&T on November 8th. I bought the Optimus G when I signed up. Of course LG had to rub their junk all over the Android UI which drove me nuts. Since I supposedly have a Nexus 4 on the way, I decided to exchange the Optimus G for a Lumia 920 this past Saturday. Pretty happy with it so far.
