Why would anyone expect this chat to be "hard hitting" or adversarial? This is, in essance, a big advertisement for Verizon and the RAZR. If people would see it for what it is, then they wouldn't be disappointed. I'm not knocking it, but when has anyone ever seen something like this, that asked the tough questions, or gave really specific honest answers. Not going to happen. A question about the SGN will get through and the answer will be to the effect of "it's coming, and we'll announce it before the end of the year"

Not expecting adversarial. I was expecting some real questions to be asked. This is a geek site. Do you honestly think that people who frequent Phandroid would need to know the difference in price between 4G and 3G data plans?

Thankfully, Rob kicked it up a notch.

I don't get the whole attitude around here about wanting to get answers. It's not like we're kicking cats or something.

I totally get that this is a geek site, but what questions would you like to see answered that you don't already know the answer to? C'mon, you're a prosecutor.

This chat is for folks interested in the RAZR, who don't spend hours on the forums.

I don't think an SGN Q will get through, this is dedicated to the RAZR.

Now a question that might get answered is "Why should we choose the RAZR over some of the other upcoming offerings that VZW has announced"

I just submitted a question asking if it supported USB On-The-Go. Whether it gets through or not is another story.

It does, and that's bothering me.. for real. I seem to care about this more than my business.

If your business has suffered than it may be a problem (although you know this already - so I'm stating the obvious). If not then maybe it's just that you needed something to distract you for a while so you feel the love for your business again. (This is all just guesswork on my part but I know a lot of people that own their own business get into a funk once in a while and need an outlet)

The RAZR is indeed a very nice phone. There is no need to put it down. Many of it's specifications are on par with the GNex.

I prefer the GNex, but I don't hold any ill will towards the RAZR, and by extension, those who purchase the RAZR.

I think there will be many happy RAZR owners. I just want to be a happy GNex owner.

My main question that I know won't be asked: why does VZW insist on encrypted bootloaders?

I'd be a helluva lot more interested in the RAZR if it had an unlockable bootloader.

The chances of me buying the RAZR were slim to none to begin with, but the chances decrease at a rate that is inversely proportional to the square of the amount of times he uses the word "AMAZING!!!"

I don't think it is. My dad, for example, is interested in the RAZR, but he hasn't heard of this chat, because he doesn't visit geek sites. He doesn't visit geek sites because he's a normal person.

As far as questions I'd like answered, well I put two questions in there:

1. When is it getting ICS?

2. What is talk time and standby time?

I think those are normal questions that I don't have answers to.

If it wasn't for ICS the razr would be my next phone.
 
I also asked how they got the processor to 1.2 GHz, when the TI website says 1 GHz. I know the answer, but interested to see if they would answer it.

I can give you your answers:

1. He doesn't know. EDIT: He just answered expected 2012, which I think you already knew.

2. Talk Time – Up to approx. 12.5 hours or Standby Time – Up to approx. 8.5 days Directly from the RAZR page on verizonwireless.com
