YES!! finally Arrival Scan...
I just think it's funny... especially when someone brings it up "you can't even tell it's there!" even though it is extremely obvious

Actually that whole video was cringeworthy

How are you guys able to get by with the 16GB model? Out of the box it only has 12.5GB of available space. That's not a lot of room for any photos, video, music, or games/large apps. At least it's not as bad as the Galaxy S4 16GB which I heard has only 8.5GB of free space!!!

BTW I still have a 32GB White Nexus 5 available, arriving Wed Nov 13. Selling for cost, otherwise I'll just ship it back for refund and lose the ~$10 shipping.

I have over 5GB free on my 16GB N4, and that is with a 1GB Nandroid backup, and a full Titanium backup although I don't know where that is

The only media I keep are a set of podcasts, some music, and an MP3 of this (yes I am crazy). My photos are only about 200MB at this point, and I would delete most of them if I were to take the time to go through them

16GB is plenty for me for now. IMO system RAM is a way more important spec than storage space. That's why it blows my mind that the ipad mini still only has 512MB. Now that is dumb.

Just got mine yesterday - 16GB white. Pretty damn nice; I'm satisfied with the build quality and materials.

And this 5" screen is big enough that I can finally type somewhat accurately. Guess it's going to be replacing my BlackBerry Q10!

Out for delivery today. Booyah. It'll sit in Richmond for around 24 hours before it'll leave. There's a few things that happen there.

16gb is plenty for me.

I have 1.13 GB available but I guess I don't listen to a lot of music on my phone. I have a USB in my car for my music. Pictures and Videos take up 4.26 so I guess theres no reason to go 32gb for me.

I don't think yours will leave the warehouse until tomorrow (tuesday). Mine had the same info yesterday and the same missing ETA. But who knows maybe you'll be lucky.

In order to get subsidized costs for an upgrade there is a minimum price plan required. I will make the exception to complete the upgrade for you and keep your price plan in tact, however the discounts can not be renewed past the current expiry date.

so which after market cases are most similar to the Otterbox Commuter series?
i have one for my S3, and this thing is a tank

ive looked at
http://www.ebay.com/itm/SPIGEN-SGP-Slim-Armor-Case-SERIES-for-Google-Nexus-5-/261317719178?pt=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item3cd7bff48a
and
http://www.ebay.com/itm/SPIGEN-SGP-Neo-Hybrid-Case-SERIES-for-Google-Nexus-5-/261317712822?pt=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item3cd7bfdbb6
and other brands as well. these dont seem to have the hardshell casing that the OtterBox Commuter has

there is this which has been posted a couple times in this thread:
Spigen Ultra Hybrid Case

but it looks similar to the ones above?
