Yeah, some other dude also said he got his from Staples. I wonder if I can cancel my order and save on the shipping.

Yeah I read that too. Kinda pissed that some could just walk into staples and pick one up while I'm still sitting here with my staples preorder with no indicative date for shipment.

Still wondering if the ones from the Play Store are black. The ones at the retail stores are brown.

No confirmation for me either. Spoke with them 3 times over the last 2 days and they all keep saying the same thing: it should ship any moment and you'll receive your confirmation soon. So frustrated.

Just picked the last one up from Canada computers in Hamilton. It's black instead of the brown that some people may have received. the guy working there said that they're getting more stock on Monday so you may be able to pick one up if you go into the store tomorrow. Ncix also should have orders for in store pickups starting Monday.

ordered 1 8GB and 1 16GB on June 27th from the google play store for a total of $544
CC not charged at the moment for this receipt from google, no emails since in regards to shipment or order
I've called around to many retailers and most are either unaware or not stocking the product, while only a handful are getting in shipments on Monday.
Not sure if its worth the hassle of buying a N7 in store on Monday and dealing with google to ship back one of the 2 that I ordered or if I should just wait, I feel frustrated that I went right to the source to place a pre-order for a product but retailers are selling it before I get any notice on when I'll get mine.. then I remember I live in a first world country and there are bigger injustices taking place around the globe.
Later I'll go have sex with my supermodel girlfriend on my yacht.

I placed my order on the 28th and have heard nothing. I'm a little bit peeved that stores are selling it before the preorders have gone out, but I suppose I'll live. I really hope I get that email on Monday telling me it's shipped.

Ditto... Ordered on 29th - we still have the 2-3 weeks shipping time GOOG mentioned when we pre-ordered.
Who cares if retailers are selling them early?

I'm screwed if I break my Epic!!!!!!

best buy has none any more, here in Va Beach, I JUST found that out when my wife got home from taking my oldest to Best buy with his broken Epic, the forced an upgrade on him so now my wife has a Iphone ( ewwww) and my oldest son has her old HTC evo 3D, but the store manager said they told my wife that the Epic is no longer made and if I break mine I get a free upgrade, only problem in the only Samsung is the SII, other than that its a keyocreia, or a LG optimus, and another phone that I have never heard of So I guess when I do finally decide to upgrade I will have to leave the Epic for dead

Orrrrrrr...be careful and take care of it. I have my original still gotten 2 weeks after release.

Best buy also offers you the full retail value towards the purchase of another phone. So whatever it was at the time of purchase for you it may be $500 towards a new phone off contract.

Even without a case, it's still somewhat of a tank. I dropped mine at least 5 times and it's fine. And before me my dad had it while putting up billboards.

+1! I've dropped mine numerous times, once even into the snow (screwed up the charging port for a couple of days) and this phone just keeps going.
Kinda disappointed, I'd love to have a free upgrade... oh well.

Mine hit Walmart's hard floor 3 times in 2 years. Battery one way, cover another...and hardly a scuff on it.

I've estimated I've dropped my phone on hard floor/concrete about 25 times, no joke, had some clumsy moments, but my baby is still going.

I got my Zagg invisible shield professionally installed right after I got my epic, and put it in the commuter case right after. A couple weeks ago, I had the invisible shield replaced under the lifetime warranty after a knife in my pocket had gouged it. When I took the case and screen protector off, my epic looked brand new. The only part that is worn at all is the keyboard, and it is _very_ worn. =)

It may have its shortcomings and limitations compared to other phones currently available, but the photon q runs circles around the Epic.
I love my epic, and I love cm9, and I'm not jumping ship yet, but come on.
Sorry, it's just the facts of the matter. Newer faster technology, better screen, and I really prefer the photon q's keyboard. 'Nuff said.

I drop my phone everyday...hell yesterday I was pissed cuz my phone fell into the train tracks and it was still playing the episode I was watching lol....I concede to samsungs build quality..my iPod shattered from one 4 foot drop.
I've had my phone since October of 2010 BTW...never put a case on it or screen protector.

oddly i just dropped my phone from a height of about 6 inches. now its like a ferrari running on one cylinder. ive dropped the damn thing all the time and it decides its had enough i guess. ive been waiting on boot animation for over fifteen minutes after odin. its chugging along at about 2 fps.
---------- Post added at 05:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:50 PM ----------
eh. I was wrong. i rebooted and its fine again... ive only been able to kill the epic twice. once from mass amounts of vomit. once from the drunk girl.

I wish every time my car acted up I could just shut it off and restart it to make it work right.

Wait wut please clarify...I upgraded from my Hero on october 6 of 2010 at bestbuy, but I signed a 2 year contract (I believe it was $250 at the time lol) so if I were to stick with best buy and upgrade again, they will deduct the epics full retail value from back when I got it from an unlocked phone? I still hve the original receipt and upgrade papers/contract..

I am talking about Black Tie insurance. If you have it and your phone breaks and is no longer available, then they give you the retail credit towards a new phonesnfull retail value.

You can occasionally find good phones on cowboom.com. I got into the Samsung Epic because I found it on CraigsList and the ESN wasn't bad -- but it was locked to someone else's account (gr!). Had to port it to cricket, since it was basically stolen.
Talked to a few of the cricket flasher people -- and they said you can find GOOD phones on cowboom. So, I searched Cowboom and got another Epic. The trick to getting a good one (mine said it was covered in scratches -- it was pretty much brand new) is to look for one that has nearly everything included with it as far as accessories. Mine showed as a poor quality, but it was flawless.
Search fairly often and you should be able to find one. Like the others said, get a case and a screen protector. I use a Seidio Active and love it.

Sony LiveView $9.99

no matter how horrible this thing works, for $10 you have to buy one. I just sent mine back because it wouldn't work, but i just bought another because it was $10

Mine sits uncharged. It would disconnect without notice (a vibrate upon disconnect would be nice) and would die faster than my phone. Oh well. Nice idea, but kind of worthless. Can't wait until the motoactvs are cheap

oh man that looks cool. the "special" cable is a huge turn off I hope they can switch to a standard micro usb for charging but my pre order for an orange one is in.
VERY neat.
AVOID the live view. I bought 3 ($8 a pop) and regretted it. they collect dust now. WONDERFUL concept but they simply WILL NOT stay connected. period. I have NEVER been able to get one to stay connected for more than a couple hours. most times less than that. amazing concept horrible execution and the damned thing can't even be CHARGED while in the watch cradle so you have to pry it out daily (how long would that last)
I was going to rivet the backing place to the watch band so I could remove the bottom band pin (allowing it to charge while in the cradle) but its so horrible in operation I never bothered.

I bought two still didn't get mine....anyone receive there's I want to play already

Nexus 4 - Singapore Thread

Anyone from Singapore spotted this baby in any of the shops yet?
I know it's yet to be officially released but I remember seeing the galaxy nexus in sim lim and some random neighborhood hp shop at least 3 weeks before actual release date... plan to go scout for this this weekend to try and check out the pricing for buying off the shelves here...
I'm abit skeptical of ordering electronic eqpt online....

I think we'll have to wait till December or next year january. I want the nexus 4 badly but do you know what's the suggested price of it?

I want this piece also. But here in Malaysia i know price will be marked up more than 50%. Which is kinda sh*tty. Sigh. So i plan to get it in the US via playstore and somehow delivered to my mom who is currently visiting there.

Yeah. You're the lucky one. Sigh. I don't think so i could get from playstore as planned. Since it has to be bought using a US credit card. Oh well. Just have to check the price here when its launched here. Worse comes to worst at least I'll get at least a one year warranty for that kinda markup price
Sent from my Nexus S using xda app-developers app

That thing is obviously going to sell for more than the GNex. Might end up going for the Xperia P if the price doesn't drop.

I'm sure it will be very expensive. If Europe is anything to go by , LG will sell it with a RRP of SG$900+ (€599 in EU, even though it's only €299 in the Play store).
I think I'll be getting mine from Aussie Play store when I'm there in December. Might order 2 and sell one if I can profit from it.
