Yes, Brad Biggs was saying that it may be Gamekeeper's thumb, which is going to put him out closer to the 8wk mark :(

The information provided is from my roommate years ago in college who is now a product manager at Vzw. He handles a different product line, but the team who handle the phones are in the same office. He's hearing late next week for the official announcement. He hasn't heard or inquired about the actual release. Unfortunately he is a fruit fanboi so his interest in the device is nil.
 
As much as i hate freaking Iphones.....if the nexus can't switch homescreens without lagging I might seriously be done with android on the whole.....
 
Im tired of waiting, but there is nothing else out there that interests me besides this phone.

Thanks VZW for your usual screw ups.

OMG - I have tears rolling down my face - 4 people have stopped by my office to make sure I haven't totally cracked because I CAN NOT STOP LAUGHING!!!!. That was absolutely great! And thanks for the mention. :D
I'd thank you more times if I could.

I thought it was going thru December.

I hope the CSR you spoke to isn't confusing the date of the extended return period.

My local store rep said the data plan was through January (but they were clueless on everything)... Amazon is saying Nov30th, and some are saying it will end this Wed. before Black Friday... This sucks, Im not even a part of the red army yet, and there is already to much drama... Ive lost enough hair as it is!!

:( What have we heard that supports this claim?
BTW we still have later tonight/midnight/tomorrow morning (when the 4 day websale ends), it could happen then...

Your optimism in the face of verizon's non information is refreshing.

Just thinking out loud here - could 11/30 be the date that they stop the penny promotion on the phones and that's why the 11/30 date is tied to it?

My local reps told me the end of the month too, but that it could be extended.

December 8th. I'm not sure why everyone is in denial, and thinks Verizon will stealth launch it today or this week.

Well I'm not in denial but I don't see why they can't announce it after the 4 day websale ends today... they need something to fill up that home page panel thing.

That PDF someone linked to on Android Central describe the double data plan does *not* say it will last until January 15. It says the 300MB plan is available until January 15. I would trust Amazon on this one.
 
I hope this hasn't been posted already. It was actually an ad on the side of a webpage...I never click those ads. It's coming from "iphone tips" so I thought it would be very one-sided, and it was, just not in the direction I expected. The browser comparison is especially flattering.

Makes me really happy I'm waiting for this phone and not settling with the fruit phone.

It's a new version of the OS on a new phone. There are going to be issues, guaranteed. With updates directly from Google, they will be fixed as quickly as possible.

These issues have been around for so long. My OG Droid has had this problem since day 1.

You would think with a new version of the OS, they would fix issues that were in previous versions of the OS.
 
Well I did it. After reading about some of the rumors (16g, no flash, Dec 8) I took the plunge on Saturday and got the Razr. I am loving it so far. I have read about battery life issues on the phone but so far no problems for me. I have been playing with it so much that I havn't yet checked to see how long a charge lasts. Hopefully it will be fine will let you know tomorrow since today is my first day back to work so I won't be playing with it so much. Anywho I hope the SGN comes quick. I have til Jan to trade so we will see what happens when the phone hits stores. Have a good day all!!

I have asked in two coporate stores and one in a BJs (think costco and get your mind out of the gutter ;) ) and all of them said the double data ends on the 30th.
 
I can't make it more than like 10 seconds at a time before having to pause that video because I'm laughing so hard and don't want my coworkers looking at me any more strangely than they already do.
