Verizon Galaxy Nexus (Prime) Waiting Room

Just wondering, but how's the shipping process for ordering online with Verizon? I've just always gone in-store to get my phone, but I plan on preordering this bad boy once it hits the web.

So does it take forever? Does it get there on day one or must I wait a few days?

It won't necessarily be available for preorder through Verizon. Seems like they usually start accepting orders on launch day with next day shipping.

Thanks, Robrecht

I avoid the brick and mortar stores as much as possible. All of my phones come from the online site and I usually end up saving money and time. Most of the time the phones if pre-ordered show up at your door on launch date or sometimes even sooner.

Hmm... Well that would just suck. I would hate to get up at 3am just to order the phone...

Also good to know! Hopefully they allow preorders somehow for this thing!

Thanks everyone! :D
 
Holy crap. VZ is quite expensive. Nickeled and dimed for everything. Navigator, messages, visual voicemail. sheesh...

This is going to be very difficult to switch from Sprint to VZ for this phone.

Nobody uses any of those services.

Shouldn't be a problem. You don't have to use those services. Google offers most of those services free.

I guess you meant to say, because you are nickel and dimed on VZ, people dont bother adding those options and that's why they dont use it.

telenav >>> than google nav. Unlimited (included) messaging is nothing to sneeze at either.

Hey guys, just wanted to drop by and say hi and say that the Nexus Prime will be my first Android phone..... can't fricken wait I currently have an LG env touch that I hate with every fiber of my being. I also have an itouch that I use in clinical pharmacy practice that works well but I just hate itunes and how locked everything seems with it. Anyway, the latest Verizon MAP leak its saying the Prime won't be available till 11/10/11.........do you guys think this could be correct or could it be a lot sooner. I really need a new phone.
 
We'll have to wait till Tuesday to find out for sure. But yea, looks to be coming the 10th. Hopefully pre-orders start a week before though.

I use unlimited messaging. So I retract my statement. But Google navigation has never given me any problem. And it is free. And I use Google voice for visual voicemail. Once again, never had any problems, and it is free.

Just wait till it comes to Sprint. It's not worth switching carriers for any phone if you are happy with the service. I'm waiting and keeping my 4 unlimited lines for $175 a month.

Welcome. You chose a great phone to start your Android journey on.
 
I cant get this song out of my head......."The sun will come out tomorrow, tomorrow, bet you bottom dollar that tomorrow........."ughhhhhh one more day!!!!!!
 
Not for us in the UK and Europe :( for us it's happening at stupid o'clock on the morning of the 19th. I basically have to decide between watching this live and being able to function at work on Wednesday.
