Verizon stores selling out of the Samsung GALAXY Nexus, inventory shifted to meet demand
Share:
The lines at Verizon for an Android phone are somewhat ironic considering that Android manufacturer Samsung has recently started an ad campaign that pokes fun at the long lines that greet buyers of the Apple iPhone whenever the Cupertino based tech giant launches a new model. Long lines and sold out stores are unusual for Android models, but the long wait for the U.S. launch combined with good reviews of the GSM model launched overseas, and the latest Android OS have led to strong pent-up demand for the unit.

Got mine this morning. Northgate Mall, VZW store. Was $250 after work discount! Soooo pretty... Also, $40 for battery + charger + USB splitter = very worth it. Charger acts as a nice dock too.

USB splitter? Can you link to this. I'm trying to find this in the accessories on VZW but I don't see it.

Its not available as a separate accessory that I know of. My splitter came in the box with the extra battery.

I would pay 299$ for a 1-year contract .. not 2 otherwise i prefer paying around 740$ and not be Verizon bit*h for 2 years!

Why? Even if you bought the phone at 299 and canelled after 14 days you would still only have 650 in the device versus 729. So either way you're still not "vzw's bitch", just pay to break the contract. Trust me, if you threaten to leave they will bend over backwards to try and stop you. (assuming you pay your bills)

And yet Verizon still considers the Razr to be its flagship phone. The people demand ICS!

This should be a message to VRZ and the manufacturers
and this phone would be selling better if it where released earlier

Well atleast in my neck of the woods, there weren't any long lines if any. :(

Imagine if this thing would have came out sooner, the sells would have been even better.

Went to a VZW store in Columbia, MD today at lunch and got the very last phone in the store. :)
I still have the Rezound. Going to give this a whirl and keep the one I like the best.
