I don't think anyone has mentioned this yet. Verizon has updated their 4G coverage map - added my area (Blacksburg/Christiansburg, VA) that has had coverage for a while but which had not yet been officially announced as having it.
I superimposed it over a Google satellite map - wouldn't you know, solid 4G coverage (supposedly) ends at my driveway!

I have to agree-- one of the best unspoken features of the RAZR. Screw the Cloud. Who needs to remember to upload content. This just streams pics, movies, and music directly from your home computer(s)- which obviously needs to stay on.
Is there anything comparable in the market?

Awesome. Now we know how much thicker the LTE version is:
LTE = 9.47mm
GSM = 8.94mm
Not bad!
EDIT: Ninjah'd by aTrain. You got to be fast here
Not to toot my own horn, but you guys were ninja'd by me 2 1/2 hours ago

As has been said by others, I expect I will have my SGN in my hand before I get one of those emails.
I live in my own little fantasy world, too...but it's okay, they know me here.
Does anyone else check Verizon's website every hour, on the hour, to see if it's been updated? I'm not normally OCD, but this phone is making me that way!
I am not that bad... but I do check more often than a normal person should....
I agree my experience with those e-mail lists are that they are usually a after thought when the actual product launches ...

That is one of the main reasons I have been considering the razr over any other phone. If the GN didn't have ICS I would have me a new razr for sure.

I hardly have 3G service in my town. My 4G toggle will remain on "OFF" for the majority of my Galaxy's life.
Most of Metro Detroit has great 4g coverage except a few key areas -- downtown Detroit (and seriously WTF is that about? maybe building interference I'm thinking, but it's annoying regardless) and my NEW house is in a dead zone! even 3g is horrible on my block, but round the corner and up the street, it's fine 4g territory again. Very annoying.

Don't want to toot my own horn, but I mentioned that the thickness on the LTE version was confirmed about 20 posts before you

I'm with ya there. Dreampt about the failed Bionic back in february, then again in july, possibly as well through august till I ran into this and said cya Bionic anf Brokenberry meet your successor. Thankfully it's still worked up to this point and now after a month more of torture and hearing from people over all these phones "I can't wait, it's just in time for my birthday"... I now get to say just in time for mine on the 22nd.
Hmm... now who do I bug for it as a present? Possibly senile grandma(Not droid)? Enjoyed the thread the whole way... thankfully my work can be done quickly so they have no idea I've blown countless hours here

I think they will make you pay full retail, or actiate a new line at the very least.... Unless you try to spin that you'll just use your own upgrade, activate and transfer over... Hmm good food for thought though... But at the moment I don't see how they could let you walk out with a subsidized phone with no activated line...
I go in to work later on today (Best Buy). I've been looking everyday that I work but haven't found anything yet/ I have a feeling that today may be different though. With the advertisement and merchandising already pouring in some Verizon locations, I'm pretty sure there's something I can dig up. We did get the ReZounds before the Verizon store down the street from us so....one can dream, right?
Anyways, soon as I hear or see something, It'll be here first.

Nope I just want to shoot myself after listening to that crap. I vote it to be one of the most annoying songs ever.

This may have been asked already, didn't see it in the past few pages, but will Verizon make an official announcment or could this simply be a silent launch? Also, how quickly do you guys think the phone will sell out, should I order it online just to be safe, or should all stores be getting at least a few in stock?
