I don't consider that new. new to me would have never have had any person's info on it which in this case you made a call and loaded your accounts into it. I could see a legal s**t storm happening if someone finds out this happened and they are selling an essentially used phone as new.

You should have the phone dusted for fingerprints and test for dna before you buy. Cmon -- it's not "used" if its never been sold.
 
OT:
I'm gonna grab my little bro's OG Droid tomorrow for temporary use. Any suggestions on the most stable ROM to put on it. Right now, he said it reboots whenever the OS gets loaded.

TIA

Though VZ has been irritating with this ridiculous launch attempt, they have put themselves in an interesting position with me. I just received one of those $100 off any 4G phone mailers. Even better, I still have my last NE2. I called them to ask if I can use them in combination and they said yes! Now here is where they are walking a fine line with me. This $100 off campaign I was told is until 12/31. If the Nexus comes out before then they may have just redeemed themselves a little with me. If not, I am going to be PISSED having been teased with a $100 discount! We will see how this one plays out.

The one on droid-life said 12/25 it ended.
 
I really have doubts about this whole Google Wallet thing. Wouldn't Google and VZW have made a decision about this from the get-go?

Like if VZW did request Google to block Wallet when the phone was being prepped for the network, wouldn't they have had this pissing match from the very start?

Regardless, I don't really care about the internal stuff. I just want the phone. Please. Pretty please? With a gigantic, steroid cherry on top?

OT Time Killer,

Took the Cell phone carrier out for a bit today.

The cooler weather is good for 20 more HP. Fun.

Up on I-75 I just slowly floated @ 80 mph by one of these rednecks that like to take a brand new truck and install a fake hood scoop, drop 2k worth of SS exhaust on the ground and spend another $500.00 on the painful in-cab resonating flow master mufflers with chrome tips. Topping it all off with heavier power robbing rough riding tires and some K&N air filter stickers and such. Heh!

Next thing I know here he is beside me picking on me, leaning over his steering wheel gawking at me like, Cmon! I Dare Ya!
Who knows, maybe he seen the Joe Gibbs rear spoiler or the Vortec HighOutput badge and figured it was as fake as his stuff.

I did a little goose and he bit so I just stayed with him until his 100 mph speed limiter stunted him and then I cleaned out my pipes up to 125 mph and let off waiting. Heh! He opted out.

Luv My Truck!

If you see someone in a grey Ford Focus SES along 75/575, riding people's ass in the left lane because every one down here somehow thinks it is OK to drive 60 in the left lane, while going absolutely bonkers because he is from NJ and is used to driving quickly and efficiently on the highways up there....it's me. :)

That's the thing. If this gets enough media attention, Verizon will be forced to act. I would encourage anyone with a twitter campaign to start including the GWallet topic.

I know we are focused on verizon here, because they have control of release, but google might be getting a little greedy with their request. They could claim to verizon IS blocking Wallet and put them in deep doodoo. And be requesting a large cut of Isis in return for keeping their mouth shut. Or like I said withholding the ability of verizon to use Isis at all.
 
For the record, I have nothing against hockey and all 50 of it's fans. :p

I never wrestled in high school....I was too busy playing football and lacrosse. I preferred playing the sports that didn't require me to roll around on the ground with another guy. :eek: :p :D

You must be from the North! All the NJ drivers that I had experiences with were mostly negative.

Ok if you think it isn't used just because it hasn't been sold than that is you. What about the guy who had a pic of a bb employee flipping the bird on his supposed brand new phone? Got a lot of press for something that was not "used" according to you.:rolleyes:

Oh yeah, there are a ton of clowns driving up there. Not going to deny that.

All I'm saying is that, the left lane is made for passing. It was not designed to ride parallel with the person in the center lane.

But this should have all been on the table when negotiations about verizon carrying it and "exclusivity" not 4 months later. I cannot see them not talking about this and including/excluding it from the start and both parties agreeing.

I'm wondering if it's even the same store? I got a voicemail back from the guy and he said that he didn't know when he told me, but some guy already has his name for first dibs on it when it's able to be sold.

I asked him who it was, but of course he couldn't tell me, although he said it was a "regular".

Oh well. That was pretty far for me anyway.
