Try Out Google Wallet in Your City
10/31/11
Google Wallet is teaming up with Sprint and Samsung on a roadshow to introduce you to Google Wallet and give you the chance to try it, in stores. Over the next three months, we’ll be visiting merchant locations in New York, Chicago, Washington DC, San Francisco and Los Angeles for half-day events to demo Google Wallet and help you pay for your purchase. You’ll not only get to see Google Wallet in action, but you’ll also get $10 towards your purchase when you tap and pay using one of the Samsung Nexus S demo phones.
We’ll be visiting different store locations in the five cities including Duane Reade, Jamba Juice, Walgreens, Peet’s Coffee & Tea, Foot Locker, Fat Witch Bakery in Chelsea Market and others.
Calendar of Events:
All event times, regardless of location, are in Eastern time, and events are subject to change. We’ll be in each city during the following dates:

Atlanta seems to be missing out. The entire southeast seems to missing out.
ReplyDeleteI'm psyched to try it on Thursday and grill the staff about when I can get a patch or something for my HTC Thunderbolt. I'd love to ditch my credit card and live by Android.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try it, but Google Wallet isn't available on my Nexus S just because I have T-Mobile instead of Sprint. I wish this carrier-exclusivity crap would go away already. It kinda goes against what I thought Google was about.
ReplyDeleteyou can't get it on your thunderbolt, it has to be something newer-- with an NFC chip. sorry
ReplyDeleteWhy is there carrier exclusivity with this product? Why is this only available with Sprint? Why can't all the Nexus S phones have access to this feature? They all have NFC chips. What's the deal?
