So I'm thinking about pre-ordering a case. (TPU, as usual.)
What I'm wondering:
(1) will cases that claim compatibility with the i515 really fit? not sure when the Chinese manufacturers knew the LTE one would be thicker
(2) are the side-charging contacts sufficiently useful to make going naked worth it?
So... still nothing from Verizon about a pre-order or anything.
I have until the 11th to return my Pantech Breakout aka Nexus Placeholder. Am I looking at going phoneless for a period of time now? :|
Did you get your pantech at a VZW corporate store? If so it should qualify for the January 15 return policy....
Yes I did. What is this January 15th return policy...?
Huh, well in that case it looks like I'm set. I wonder why they have this extended return window? Is it because of an expected surge in returns/exchanges due to the holidays?
Only a handful of Verizon phones can be used outside the US, those with GSM radios and marked as 'World Phones.'
Photos of phone in retail box and news of shipments to stores. We will seeeee
Those are test units, its been dismissed. They are from the Samsung store thing in NY
Looks like the 9th is the day.

And in other fantastic Verizon/Nexus news, VZW has confirmed that Google Wallet NFC will be disabled on their Galaxy Nexus, apparently because Verizon is working on a competing service. I hope this is the last time Google tosses Verizon a Nexus product exclusive.

lmao, nfc but disabled? Google has no clue how to execute and is totally overvalued as a company.
How is NFC disabled by carriers? Is it done through software or hardware?
NFC is not disabled. Verizon simply isn't allowing google wallet on the phone, in favor of it's own NFC payment system, "Isis"
of course you can hack google wallet onto the GSM model easily, and hopefully the LTE model too.
