Strange but last night I randomly discovered that I had purchased the movie from Google Play when I've never bought the film. Just talked to my brother in law who owns a Nexus 7 and he confirmed it was free with his tablet. Can anyone else confirm if it shows they bought the movie from completing this conversion process? If so then it's a nifty freebie for us users!

haha thanx for the heads up I have it too.!
That's called theft and you, sir, are a filthy pirate! You wouldn't steal a car would you? So why are you stealing movies from the poor hardworking film makers like Michael Bay?
/sarc
Interesting side effect. I'd think Google would be able to tell that the same Nexus 4 "device" has given this movie to x number of different accounts. Bad security on their part. I got this movie free on my N7 as well (it's also on Netflix) and I have yet to watch it. I'm waiting until I'm completely out of entertainment options I guess, ha ha.
Edit: You should also have access to several (now way outdated) magazines in Play Magazine or whatever it's called. Not that anyone has that bloat app on their phone, but they should be there.
You would think so if this is what were happening. I imagine it might be similar to when a Samsung phone a while back was offering free copies of Avatar to those with t-mobile when they bought their handset, although this is not being promoted.

Have you checked out the ouya? I mean they sell it as an android video game console, but I would imagine all of your music and video streaming needs will be available on the device as well. I am not for sure on the pre-order price, but I think it is $99.
Here's a link - http://www.ouya.tv/
I'd like to get the One but I have to have the 64gb version. What stores are selling the 64gb such as Best Buy, RadioShack, or Walmart? I'd also love if it were maybe a little cheaper than the current $299 AT&T price

That's correct. The 64GB is an online exclusive only..
After I week long debate I decided to get the 32gb. It probably will force me to use more cloud based services. I loaded my music I still had 16 gigs left. Instant win.

I'm definitely going to need the 64gb. I have around 40 gbs of music that I want kept locally on the device. I've used Google Music and think it's great, but I don't have the data to use it like I would like to. The 64gb is a must and I'm a bit weary about purchasing it online due to the defects some are reporting. Does anyone know if these defects are as abundant in the AT&T version of the phone as they are in the international? I looked at one at the AT&T store and it seemed to be perfect.

I don't think there are any abundant defects in any version. I have a 64GB from ATT and it's perfect, except for the soft buttons not lighting up most of the time but I think they all do that to some degree.
Don't forget the OTG as well. It works great right out of the box. I just moved about 20GB of movie files off the phone onto a flashdrive and it was so quick I was shocked. I wish I'd paid attention to how long it was, seemed like just a few minutes.

I'm fine with the soft keys not lighting up. In fact, I'd rather them be off all the time and I'll make them that way if possible. I just don't see how or why it's necessary and, in the dark, it's excessively annoying.
I have an OTG cable for my Nexus devices and my favorite use of it has to be playing GTA III with a PlayStation controller. I like to show iPhone users that

Can some body please tell me where I can actually purchase a Kit Kat bar with the Android on the front. My three year old daughter loves the Android Mascot and seriously wants one of the Kit Kat bars. I've been to multiple gas stations, 7-11's, and Best Buys. No one has ever seemed to heard of it.

No one had a G2 out on display for my friend to play with. I'm trying to convert him from iPhone but every store (2Best Buys, an At&t store, and a RadioShack) did not have a model out on display. It looks as if even the Moto X had more advertising behind it. Surprised me quite a bit that the lack of sales is because of product placement.
I agree 100% Most of the store employees at at&t didn't even know this phone existed when I bought mine.

I'm surprised about the ATT store. Was it an official company store, or some affiliated store. Non company stores are always kind of hit or miss on finding working phones instead of inert display models.

I went to a corporate VZW store on launch day and nothing was out and half the employees didn't even know what it was.
About two weeks later went into a non-corporate store and they had nothing out and knew nothing about the phone.
I went to a Verizon store to check out some assessories and to my surprise they had none on display but a bunch in the back sitting in a basket..

I went in to Verizon (corporate store) on launch day and asked about it. No one knew what it was and said they didn't have it in stock. The associate then went on to recommend me NOT to buy an LG device and how he hated them. But if I were interested in an iPhone or Samsung, then he'd help me. Couldn't believe it! So I left and bought it at another nearby corporate store.

My ATT Corporate store had some on dispay i when I got mine. The Rep also seemed to know a lot about the device as well. She was talking about how cool it is and also talking about some of the features.
They is marketing the G2 really well imo, here in Wisconsin. lot's of commercials
In Sweden there are huge banners and even some TV-commercials (Phone commercials on TV are very rare here)
I was lucky enough to snag one as the stores were running out fast.

They actually do advertise it and the att store here loves the g2 and Verizon reps here waiting for them to finally arrive. I know they are far behind is a non corporate Verizon store and ur in Wisconsin redneck area so most likely the non corporate store Verizon will get it late but they have huge posters out for it thought. Att here has it and the reps really pushing it as the android phone to get.

Really bothers me because I know of a lot of people that'd be more informative than these reps but the stores don't seem to be happy hiring informative people, but rather morons.

The AT&T store in Crossgates Mall in Albany, NY had it on display when it first was released and took it off display for for some reason. I think they are still selling it tho. Best Buy also has them in stock but not on display. Just bought one yesterday at BB. Exchanged the Blue HTC One for it. I LOVE this phone. The display is amazing. I've had all the major high end phones this past year and this one is BY FAR the best. Hopefully the development will pick up as more people discover the G2.
I also played with the Note 3 in the AT&T store and the same lag from the S4 is present in the Note 3. It's the God's honest truth. I was debating whether to buy the Note 3 today or the LG G2 yesterday but after seeing that my decision was easy.
In Cincinnati, OH USA...
Best Buy is where I purchased mine...don't remember seeing one on display but during the purchase they said hey, we have a $50.00 coupon...so got it for $149.00. Made me happy. They had zero cases.
Local AT&T store had a working one on display but the sales rep clearly wasn't pushing it. He said you seem to know what you are looking for but asked if I considered the S4...I pulled it out and said that's what I'm getting rid of. Checked 5 AT&T stores for cases and they all had only one...bodyguard (nice case by the way)
Stopped by a large AT&T store in Vermont while traveling looking for a case and the LG hadn't arrived yet for sale!??!
Funny, one AT&T rep commented (in a whisper) that he considers the LG G2 the best android phone they've carried to date.
For those of you who took advantage of the $50 Google Play credit Samsung threw out there for purchasers of the Note 3, I thought I'd put this out there so we can all get a feel for what others deem worthy of spending $$$ (credits rather) on.
Personally I used $4.99 to buy the password manager: Safe in Cloud. Gorgeous interface, PC access and support for your passwords and an iOS app in the works for a truly cross-platform PW manager.
I'd love to have some other good ideas, this $50 is burning a hole in my (virtual) pocket.

So far, the only app I've bought that seems worthy is Lux Auto Brightness. The lowest brightness setting on my Note 3 is FAR too bright (think floodlight) and this app seems to take the backlight under the "zero percent brightness" setting which is great for the every night pitch black setting I use it in.
I also purchased Flight Vegas Sim and Modern Combat 4 but those didn't seem to be too worthy as they are just time wasters. Thank goodness for that Google Opinion Rewards app giving me some more precious Play Credit!
I am planning to rent a couple movies using the credit. Too bad we can't buy Chromecast, that'd be the best use personally.
