***Official HTC Incredible Thread***

Once again the accuracy of this story depends upon which end Digitimes got their information. Did they hear about HTC phones coming to verizon or HTC shipping phones out to somewhere and assuming it was verizon.


Phonearena has a response from a Verizon employee under their article:

So I want to squash any rumors about this. IT IS STILL NOT IN OUR EQUIPMENT GUIDE!!!! Those are false pics. I have my equipment guide up right now here at work, as I work for Verizon, and it is not showing. Hell, I'll send you a video of our equipment guide. Whoever is posting that crap needs to stop and I am sorry, Phone Arena, you have to stop putting that up. You are making yourselves look silly.

Also, the Nexus has not been brought around to be trained on and there has been no online trainings on it. The only Android device that has been brought around is the Devour becuase it launches on the 25th here in retail.

Now, if they did ship them to us, I can't confirm that one or deny it. Thats way above me. But everything else is just BS!!!!
 
My appologies if this has already been posted (I didn't have time to make it through the thousands of posts since Friday).

If not, this is just another item to add to the list of things that likely mean absolutely nothing but are fun to speculate about.

Has anyone seen this on the verizon wireless site? Note "incredible" wording...

I saw that too but I think it is just a coincidence. We are all very sick people looking for the cure a little too hard :p
 
I feel safe in saying its always says that. Or has said that fore the last few months.

Mykpfsu - You are right....I realized that was likely the case after posting. In fact, now that I think about it I think I even remember now having seen it posted on this forum a while back.

I'm at the point where I've read so many things in so many places that I am forgetting what I've already seen.

Oh well....one of these days let's hope they actually turn that into a link to purchase THE Incredible.
 
what have i started haha.


on a side note, what stores are you pittsburghers getting your incredibles at, if you are getting the incredible?


I am actually in Clarion County -- So, It's on-line for me or drive to Hermitage over in Mercer County. We don't have any Verizon stores for 100 miles around!

We'll see. I'm just taking the approach of that until I see a press release from Verizon I know nothing is launching. I don't care what the sprint employee in Verizon drag is typing or what was said from the dude that is friends with your brother's cousin-in-law. Me wanty press release.
 
Oh.....well mine is from Sept (09) and I am a selfish person so :p

All I have to say is June 2008...The Incredible cannot come soon enough!

Until the recent leaks, I was beginning to sway towards getting the N1 upon release, but the recent rumors have definitely got me back. I definitely owe that to NKT and Stericson, Thanks for bringing me back!
 
I think Verizon is trying to make me go crazy. I just a VZW text message that said Reday for a new phone? It has a number to call for more details. Maybe I can sneak out some info on the Incredible if I call. :)

While your at it ask for the combo to the vault door in Fort Knox, you'd might have better luck getting that out of a Verizon employee.
 
Showed up in their inventory system. I don't know if that means it is in Verizon warehouses or simply(and more likely) that the information was entered so stores know what to order when it is available.
I think its more akin to a store like Gamestop having a game's information in its system. Tt may not be out yet, but there is enough information to pre-order.


The good news is that the test phones have been sent back to Verizon(according to NKT's source).

One step closer to release day!

Yep. And since they are branded as Verizon phones testing should be over with. Now time for HTC to crank up the production line.

DAMN son..........June 2008? What the hell have you been waiting for?

I was wondering about this. If NKT and Stericson's sources just sent their phones back, how is it that HTC is shipping them already?
 
You know...it's funny. I'm reading this thread and starting to get jittery with anticipation. It's like I could totally lose my composure here waiting for this friggin phone! After waiting....I definitely don't want to show up at the store and have them be sold out!!!!!! Do you guys think they will take pre-orders? I would like to buy at my local Costco kiosk....but I think they will get the Incredible a few weeks after the corporate stores. (at least that's the way they got the Droid) I did plan to wait and see what everyone had to say...but i just don't know if I can do it anymore!
:eek: :o :D

Testing may have been done before the phones had to be sent back. Maybe the source had already sent in their notes sometime beforehand. Also it may have just been network testing (as they were Verizon branded) and the assumption was all is well so a batch was ready to go. Of course thats IF they are shipping Incredibles. I still say that story should not be believed without some collaboration.
 
I don't think Verizon will advertise the Icredible or Nexus like they did for the Droid, remember the Moto Droid was Verizon's 1st Android powered phone that's why it was so advertised. They barely have made mention of the Devour.

The Devour isn't even in VZW stores yet, as I understand, and imHo it is an inferior phone for little girls who are on facebook. I had my hands on it in the best buy store. I'm flaming the phone, now you, fyi. :D
 
I DON'T BELIEVE YOU GUYS!!! YOU DON'T HAVE A LIFE!!! YOU ARE GOING NUTS AND OBSESSING OVER A STINKING PIECE OF PLASTIC, GLASS AND METAL!! GEEZ! GET A LIFE!!

YOU ARE ALL A BUNCH OF SILLY LITTLE BOYS WHO ARE NERDS!!! I'M AWAY FOR 12 HOURS AND YOU GO NUTS COMMENTING ON THAT WHICH YOU ARE ONLY SPECULATING ABOUT!! YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!! YOU MAKE ME SICK!!!------------------
:D :D :D :D





(of course I include myself in that criticism! ;) )

JK Relax! I'm more exited than you are !

Please refrain from using a long string of dashes......that's making me sick.:p

Edit: It'd also be nice if you could edit the aforementioned post.

"an inferior phone for little girls who are on facebook," you say? So how are you liking your new Devour, Steven? :D :p ;)

I agree, unless they are truly not getting the iPhone. In that case they may slam and Say "iPhone killer" more so than Droid? Just saying....based on the specs, IMHO this is the actual killer.

i wouldn't worry about it. i dont think anyone had trouble getting the droid. there were about 7 people at the store where I live!

i'm buying online anyway... i hate mail in rebates.
