A friend of mine sent me this video of halfcab123 on YouTube who, while taking his Nexus S in to his local Best Buy for repairs, took the time to root the 6-foot tall Nexus S display they had in the store. A pretty amazing if not amusing feat. If you doubt that the monster sized Nexus S is in fact rooted, the guy goes on to give you video proof using Terminal Emulator. A tip of the hat to you, sir.
Thanks, Michael!
Apparently, tomorrow is national Nexus S day at Best Buy. The retailer announced via press release that they will be offering the “pure Google experience” phone free but for 1 day only at all Best Buy and Best Buy Mobile locations. At a price this good, it’s hard to say no. The deal applies to the unlocked GSM version for AT&T and T-Mobile, as well as the Sprint version of the device. Normally these kinds of deals are reserved only when signing a new 2-year customer agreement but you may be pleased to know that the offer is also good for those of you looking to upgrade a line as well.
