    Evidently, the bumper cases went on sale again yesterday for a few hours and are now sold out again :(

    The wife is getting me an early Christmas gift and getting me the Clear-Coat scratch protection screen for it

    Grrrrr! I demand that you karma your phone to me, and then when, if ever, I get mine I'll karma it to you! DEAL! :cheesygrin:

    Very nice though, let us know your thoughts. I'm going to hold out for the bumper, I saw today that they we're on sale again yesterday. Ugh, I would have ordered one.

    Yea, i didn't know either about the bumpers :(

    $27 shipped is expensive for a case! But they look pretty damn awesome. They have one for like $5 on amazon, but it just doesn't look the same.

    I wonder when their 'wireless charging orb' will come out. Some people think there's a delay because of heat issues. We'll see. I'd like to get one if they're not too damn expensive.

    Hmmm... Mine has gone from pending to 'pre-ordered'. Weird.

    Shipping finally updated, looks like it'll be here Friday!

    I'm excited. I haven't had a new phone since the Nexus 1!

    I'm not going to get my hopes up, but shipping was updated again and it says scheduled for early delivery tomorrow. That would be awesome!

    Eh, for twice the price unlocked, I'll stick with the N4, and have no contract.


    Cody, did you order a 8gb or 16gb? I ordered the 8, so that may be my issue.

    To be honest, I don't get the whole "I don't want a contract' mentality. I get the theory behind it, but practically speaking I'm always gonna have cell phone service, so what's the big deal being on contract?

    I just picked up the Droid DNA, and it destroys every other Android phone I've seen or owned.

    With T-Mobile, it's cheaper to have an off-contract package.

    I guess I'm paranoid about the 'what if' factor. I'd like to be able to cut ties with a company without having to pay a fee. Besides, as soon as the N4 arrives I'll be using Straight Talk for 45/month, which beats the pants off of my current providers plan for a smartphone. I've heard good things about the DNA, nice.

    Cancellation fees and in general no contracts are cheaper. I'm always going to have a car too, doesn't mean I'm always going to want the one that costs the most to upkeep.

    Siiiiiiiiigh..... Still no update, I'm considering other options at this point, but I can't seem to find one that can compete with the Nexus 4. FML.

    Looks like Google charged my account this afternoon, from reports I should see my phone by Thursday once this happens. I've already got a screen protector, and a Ringke slim case. I'm all set, hopefully!
