By now, if you're anything like me, you are all steaming with frustration right now wondering why the heck Verizon keeps postponing the Galaxy Nexus launch for who knows what reasons (we have our suspicions: 1,2). Some of you may have gone as far as tweet-bombing the shiz out of them hoping that would undoubtedly make you feel better. I can personally say it doesn't, nor does it make the release happen any sooner. As it stands right now, Verizon store managers aren't even privy to the reason for its delay. Although unannounced, they all thought this Friday was going to be Galaxy Nexus launch day just as much as you and I did and were equally surprised to know that we have yet to receive any official announcements surrounding the launch and its delays. So, venting your anger upon your poor local Verizon employee isn't going to help any, especially if you still plan to stake out in Big Red's parking lot first thing Friday morning still in hopes of some miraculous surprise. We will see it when we see it I guess and “before the end of the year” is the only official detail we have right now.
So that brings me to our next best option if this Friday doesn't actually pan out. According to a recent leak, internal info shows the new launch date of next Tuesday, December 13th. I know Tuesday seems a bit odd for a launch day but you must remember that the Motorola XYBoard's are rumored to drop the day before and Verizon wouldn't want to hinder Moto sales in any way, would they? In the grand scheme of things though, whats one extra day compared to all the waiting we have been through already!
So there you have it. Another rumored launch day for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus to mark on your already rumor-filled calendars. But who knows, we may be pleasantly surprised come Friday morning and finally get our just deserts. We will continue to follow the madness and keep you updated with its latest lunacies.

This document, above all other rumored documents, looks to be the biggest fake out there. I could make that on Microsoft office in about 5min. lol. I really got a kick out of the Best Buy one a week ago for their great “Release on Sunday”, before Verizon releases the device….
I am sure the person who first created the rumored Dec. 9th document realized the day was upon us, and last minute saw it wasnt coming and decided he’d better think up another lie, I mean rumor, to cover up his previous rumor… So now we get an unofficial delayed release date document created on Microsoft Office, which by the way, looks like a child made up.
I will wait like everyone else…. Day after day after day…
can u really be upset cause a rumor is not true? damn fools act as if Verizon actually gave the public a release date
i decided to wait guys jan/feb new better phones with better battery life are coming
A big Fuck You to everyone involved with this launch.
Stacy – To hang out in a parking lot, is to stake out the store……. you eat a steak :D
Awe man, you are right! Thanks for the catch. :-)
