Verizon Galaxy Nexus Pre-Orders Starting Today?

Posted: 29 Nov 2011 01:42 AM PST

We will believe it when we get some official confirmation from Verizon, but there is a possibility that Verizon could start taking pre-orders on the new Samsung Galaxy Nexus from today, the 29th of November, and the device is expected to go on sale on the 8th of December.

Of course this has yet to be confirmed by Verizon, and until we actually get some confirmation from them, I think we can just take this as a rumor at the moment, we still have no idea about why Verizon is being so secretive about the launch date of the device.
