    Rambling by me.

    First I just want to say, during my following of this forum about the Galaxy I've seen several people talk about this p3droid guy, so I started following him. I enjoyed it at first. Kept up with the device some of his antics was funny etc. Here the last few days he's took a big dive for me. Posting links to videos 'rick rollin' people and all that. It's like ... thanks but... no thanks. Anyway, off of that subject.

    I've been waiting for this phone to release since, well, all of you guys have lol. At this point it's almost like 'what's the point' anymore. I want the phone, can't get any LEGITIMATE news about it from any reliable source... so at this point, why not just wait for some of the better phones that they say will be launching early next year?

    I don't know, just my feelings right now are, they've made me kind lose my luster for the device. I was so jacked up and ready for it, now I'm just torn and thinking I'm still going to wait until next year. And here's the kicker, I'm still on the OG Droid, my charging port is broken, so every night I have to take my battery out and put it in one of those battery chargers, phone still runs good though. Just moved to Steel Droid 9.0.

    Even with having to do that, can't charge through charging port, can't move files etc through usb, I'm still thinking I'll wait....

    Sorry for the ramble... what's all of your feelings at this point?
    1. OG when it came out. (Rooted, ROM'd, anything else you can think of).
    2. Galaxy Nexus on release. (Unlocked, rooted, ready to rock.)

    I was just like you. So excited and following every bit of news i could find in the nexus. Now I'm still interested but I don't get all upset when a new rumor pushing the potential relaxed day back comes out.

    I wouldn't say the lack of information has turned me away. Obviously it would be nice to hear something from Verizon, but honestly they don't ever give us information, we get rumors leaked from people on the inside. This release is no different, Verizon isn't saying anything because they don't want to officially delay the phone if they don't have to.

    I don't see myself waiting until next year to get a new phone, I'm using an OG as well, but what makes you think Verizon will get out the phones they're "supposed" to have out by early next year? It could be the same process all over again. So no, I'll be getting the Nexus the day it comes out, which looks like sometime between today and December 8th.

    I agree with you. And I think I'd be off the nexus bandwagon myself if it wasnt for the fact that its pure ICS. That's really the only thing that's keeping me wanting this phone regardless of all the frustration surrounding its release.

    My thoughts dead on. I have lost almost all excitement for this phone...especially after hearing some of our friends across the ponds complaints starting to trickle in. I'll hold on to my Bionic for a bit more.

    I'm pretty well over the phone...if the razr or resound? had unlocked bootloader I'd be all over it...I just need a new phone, my D1 is pretty well done. I'm at the point that as much as I want the Nexus, ICS and the bootloader might not be worth the problems they're having. Might be time to suck it up and just get a phone...
