I don't mind I go there then to see is it available because I have class in the afternoon.
Hopefully the store (either Bay Parkway, Brooklyn or 23rd Street, Manhattan) will let me to mess around the phone before buying it instead of returning it later.
I'll pay in full ($530 + tax) because I have "unlocked phone plan" (EM+).
i'll go pick one up @ the soho bestbuy w/o contract on thursday morning before i go to work
I want to get it too unlocked.. but I want yo know if the community will be large like nexuss one or evo

I will be at BestBuy an hour before they open to beat that one other person that may be there, but yup ill get one
Hope you guys will release the system dump
I'll stop by a BestBuy on thursday to look at the Nexus S for sure.
Got a Nexus One atm so its not an emergency to upgrade.
Ill be buying one only cuz i lost my N1 recently due to being extremly drunk. but have to wait for AT&t/Rogers one if it ever comes out.
waiting paitianly with my HTC Dream.
if i have to wait much longer with this slow ass device i might have to shoot myself.
I will be buying it on day one
i'll be on vacation, but i look forward to seeing all you guys talk about it. (^_^)
I'm going to dive in. The N1 is getting retired from daily use.
I told myself that i would never ever get rid of my N1 but honestly with the market for N1's as it is right now It be stupid not to sell, i got a good price for it
And its better to get rid of it now while the market is high and the next installment is on its way
Who else sold there baby to get the NS?
I will be selling my vibrant for the nexus S not much of an upgrade, but I really like the slight hardware design change and the software (pure android, + ext4fs)
Sent from my Android phone.
I'm selling my Nexus 1 to get the S.
I work Thursday at 10am so hopefully I can snag a Nexus S before work.
I will hit the Best Buy at 86th st in Manhattan and pick mine up on Thursday, probably right when they open.
I'm selling my HTC Desire and yes I will be there on day 1.
I have a Best Buy right across the street from work.
I'll be there when they open.
Star date, 12/16 2010. 8am, you know where to find me.

You won't wait for an AT&T variant?
I want to get it on day one, but with my Nexus One I learned my lesson the hard way. Hopefully Samsung hid the AT&T 3G bands on the chip like they did with the T-Mobile Vibrant.
I'll be at the local Best Buy at 8am to pick up two Nexus S'eses.
"Give me six Schlitzeses"
I may get it, but wanna wait a few days for the real reviews.

So I have a nexus right now and been yearning for something new for a fee months. I am on t mobile and eligible for a new phone. I actually want a dual core phone but I'm feeling so impatient. And if this phone is coming out now I doubt t mobile will release something better for atleast a few more months after that. So I would be able to get it for 150 on contract. I might be able to sell my nexus for like 250 so I wont be spending any money on that upgrade. Now, my other option is getting an atrix unlocked for full retail price of 500 and use it on t mobile. I don't want to leave to t mobile I like it for some reason. Even though I could get 15 percent off any carrier. But that aside what do you guys think. Because another option also is then sell the s 4g and buy the next good phone falt out and I might end up just paying a difference of 200 or something.
I would wait for galaxy s 2. My N1 can wait another 6 month. I am sure it will be by mid summers.

I can't wait that long damn. I'm desperate already.
Same here, I really want to get another phone on T-Mobile. Personally, I'm not a fan of Samsung, if I had to get one, I'd get the Nexus S (at least the software is managed by Google). Try flashing a custom ROM or something if you haven't already to breath some new life into your phone. I think I'd be worth the wait for something like the LG Optimus 2x/3D or the HTC Pyramid.
Yea I rooted my phone first week I got it. But its been a year already. I would like the optimus but didn't it come out in Europe like a month ago?
Samsung phones look like they were bought from the dollar-store ... just get an HTC/LG
The Galaxy S2 comes out in Europe in February/March. IMO the Atrix will be better, but meh. The LG Optimus 2X also looks very good.
i'm actually sort of in the same boat. i broke my n1 a month ago, and wasnt planning on getting anything new til the optimus or the pyramid.
but now i'm tired of using my HD2 with android, and wanting to get something immediately. cant decide between g2/myt4g or the 4gvibrant. i'm sort of leaning towards the vibrant but the lack of a trackpad or flash is the only thing that is making me hesitate.
i'm also definitely buying the pyramid whenever it comes out, this phone would essentially just be tiding me over till then.
I was in the same boat as well. I wanted to wait for the dual cores before buying a brand new phone so I decided to look for an HD2 to put Android on. It took about two weeks of Craigslist hunting before I got a good deal on one(190 with all the original access. including 16gb sd). I'm running a gingerbread rom on this thing and love it plus it will be pretty easy to get my money back for it in a couple months when the new phones start to hit.
Wait for next generation of nexus...
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Dam I think I should wait a little more. The s4g is such a small update that I would be wasting my eligibility for something like it. And hd2? Naw I put android on it for my gf and I much rather have my nexie.

FYI, Bestbuy is offering a Free Inspire 4g if you are eligible for an upgrade. I just ordered mine and paid extra for the express shipping.
Check it out, I ran across it by chance.
(BTW, I do not work for Best Buy, lol)
Do you know how long this offer is for?
Wow...this is making it even harder to decide whether or not to upgrade from my Captivate...
I know right? Im trying to dump my iphone for a inspire but with sgs 2 coming out idk what the hell to do! Lol
Yeah, I'm pretty impatient too. My Captivate is running fine, but I just have this 'itch' to upgrade. I was gonna go with AmazonWireless who had the Inspire for $29.99, then I came here to take a look at the Inspire forums, and see this awesome deal!
Argh!
True Dat - just ordered it as un upgrade w/instore pickup! THANKS!
My brother is the one with the upgrade so i was gonna give him my iphone and use the upgrade for the Inspire but, like a good brother I told him about the best buy deal. :/
I used to work for Best Buy and know their ads usually start on Sunday and end on Saturday so it just came out. I can't guarantee that will be the case with this deal though.
so I went to Att today to make adjustments to my plan and offered interest in the inspire. I have an upgrade available.
she asked me if I wanted to get the Inspire today and I said "no because I can get it at best buy for free".
she was silent for about 30 seconds then said she is gonna check the best buy website....she does and says she can match it.
I'll be going back tommarow for my free Inspire.
You been going for almost a month now about getting one. You even created a thread.

Cool, I wish they wold have done it for me. I actually went to an AT&T store FIRST to physically play with the phone. He mentioned the Infuse, and I agreed that it looked nice, but the price was out of the question. Told him that Amazon Wireless had the Inspire for $30, and BestBuy had it for zip and he just shrugged and pointed me to the phone.
Then I went to BestBuy (a journey for me since I don't drive) and got the phone...only to return it the next day due to a bubble in the glass, and some minor pixel issues in the center of the phone.
But I'm all set now. Liking the phone, and gonna eventually get into some reading so I can root, and play with different roms...
Seems that with all phones now they are becoming free after a few months.
Got my Inspire from Best Buy 13 days ago for $79.99. Browsing thru the forums and saw threads on it being offered for free now. Headed over to BB after work, and came out $86 dollars richer. I don't know if the "free" was for online purchases or not, but in store it was being offered for $1. Super fantastic deal! I love this phone, even convinced my hubby to dump his 3GS and take advantage of this awesome deal. He will get his tomorrow
I finally got the Inspire today....or Desire?? Lol

I got my Infuse from Costco about 5 days ago as an upgrade....I went online to the att website and saw I was still elegible for an upgrade....My question is should i be a dirtbag and get another Infuse to donate to a dev or do you think they might catch me?

The only phone on that list that I may consider is HTC Holiday. If I were you I'd hold on to the upgrade slot until iPhone 5 (or whatever it will be called) comes out then try to snag one on the first day, then do a quick flip on eBay. If played right you should have enough money to pay full price for one of those Androids and have a couple of Benjamins left over.
Sounds like a plan. i think i might just go ahead and do that.
but if i like the iPhone 5 i might keep it or sell it then go buy one via replacement price. all planned out lol
So I know that there are a few hot phones coming out, like the sony xperia ion and the HTC one X etc..
I have until March 22nd before my 30 day return window is up on my Skyrocket. However I think that both the phones I mentioned above will be released after that by a few weeks.
My question is (being that I'mm brand new to ATT) could I return my skyrocket within my days and just use some random lame $20 phone that I find on CL for a few weeks and then still use my upgrade a few weeks later when these other phones are released? Or what would you do in my shoes? Thanks!!
Honestly, no. Your best bet it to call AT&T and speak to a customer service manager, or escalate it as high as you need to iin ordee for you to keepbyiur upgrade option. Just walking into the store isn't going to cut it
i would just return it and use the crappy phone or if you are willing to spend the money buy the skyrocket off contract and use the upgrade later. if you have the skyrocket you would be good for even longer because its a great phone so you could wait for an even better phone than the One X that will inevitably come 2 months after the One X comes out.

Amazing!!! These **new** phones will remain new for only a few months. They will soon superseded by something flashier, faster and "greater". I am sure that Android 5.0 is also around the corner.
You cannot keep chasing this. It would cost some real money. I find that the Skyrocket does everything I want a good phone to do, it has a great screen, it is fast, it has more than enough storage, etc, etc. Sure, you can get a quad-core phone as soon as they come out, but what would be the speed improvement there? The Skyrocket is already very fast. If I were you, I would enjoy the phone and wait for the upgrade wait to end. In a year or so, there will be another great collection of phones for you to choose from!
Personally, I would keep the Skyrocket. Besides the Note, there is no other phone out there right now, or even announced that I have any interest in. When the SGS3 comes out, maybe that will change, but in the mean time, the Skyrocket is one of the top dogs.
You'll always be chasing what keeps itself 2 steps ahead of you.
Returning your phone to at&t isn't a slam dunk. If you don't get a new phone at the time of the return, they'll most likely push up your next upgrade eligibility to 60days. They may also hit you with a restocking fee too. Good luck.
If you want to stay up to date on the cheap..pay out of pocket once at best buy(price match at$t) and do buyback..every new phone as long long as its within 6 months is basically half price off contract.

Don't place your order. Return it.
It's not worth wasting an upgrade on a last-gen phone when you have the opportunity to get a more future-proof phone.
As amazing as the One X is, its not worth going back to. I did.. multiple times haha.
Spend your upgrade on something totally different. Get an iPhone and sell it for $700. Get a Windows Phone. Wait for the One X+.
