This lady is going to bed. You guys(and gals) are delightful. Let's keep those April Fool's jokes to a minimum tomorrow in regards to our ever-nearing Incredible. Some of us have pace makers, for Pete's sake!

Ok guys- I dug up some info on the promotions that will be starting tomorrow. Looks like either Palm put some heavy pressure on VZW or they really just have a *hit ton of Palms in the warehouse, which, due to the new Palms selling worse than the Cosmos, both are probably the case. But anyways, here's what I found:

The Pre Plus is going down to $50, and the Pixi Plus to $30- VZW is waiving the MIRs in-store :eek: Also, as an incentive to get the Palms, customers can get the Mobile Hot-Spot feature FREE- I think that's either for the duration of the contract, or for life- not sure which one :eek: They're really not playing around with this.. Interestingly, the BB BOGA will be continued, so only the droids are no longer BOGO. Perhaps even more interesting- these offers go til the 18th, which fits in eerily well with the supposed release timeframe for our beloved Incredible. So instead of them launching on the 1st after the BOGO ends, might April 19th be the day that we've all been waiting for?? We'll see..

I'll do some deeper digging tomorrow into more details about these deals, and see if they've posted anything relating to the 19th and beyond..

Greetings gentlemen, Red Leader checking in.

I drove by a Verizon store and decided to pop in as I felt like having some fun with the reps and extract some info for the Incredible crew.

Blonde: Hiii, I saw you checking out the droid, do you like what you see?
Me: *Looking at her with Devilish smile* I do NOW ;)
Blonde: Ohhhh hahaha...*big smile*
Me: I need a new phone, something fast and powerful.
Blonde: Wellll The droid is good, and we just released the devour.
Me: I like the droid but don't want a physical keyboard. Have you heard about the ADR6300?
Blonde: Oh you mean the replacement for the eris?
Me: :D Yes. Any idea when it's coming out?
Blonde: Couple of weeks.
Me: Ok, well I have some business to take care of and must be going. How about we exchange numbers and I'll call you in a week, to discuss this phone...among other things ;)
Blonde: Giggling...ok. *Hands business card and writes another cell number on the back*
Me: K, catch ya later...incredible ;)


I also heard another two reps mention that Fedex had arrived that morning and that UPS had made two deliveries today - which it appeared to surprise them quite a bit. I also saw a rep put up new signage (pictures of the palm pics etc). There was also quite a bit of commotion coming from the backroom that I could hear. Things are in motion :D

Hmmm... speaking of unbelievable. DO YOU HAVE PICTURES? ;) Honestly? This sounds more like the beginning of a Porn flick rather than one of those generic ...."so I walked into the VZ store" stories! ;)

Well done, killer! (cue tiger growl)

I have been lurking since Page 4, read through thousands upon thousands of posts, have been guilty of not doing work in favor of hitting F5 over and over again, have lost and regained faith in Big Red several times now over the no-shows at various events and expos, but FINALLY decided to create a user name to express my disdain for Apple.

Competition fosters technological advancement. Maybe Apple should spend more time maintaining the relevance of their own aging devices rather than suppress the innovation of others.

HTC FTW


Oh yeah, almost forgot, free MM and Kappy!

GASP!
hello!
 
Wow finally caught up... and after being on all day at work and nothing happened (including the amount of work i got done... woops), we get all this info and pics tonight and we do PhoneArena, and Engagdet's job for them again.


Once again, thanks and good work!


Do we have two Steven's now?! this thread is going to make it to 1000 pages soon ;)
 
I see the $50 pre and $30 pixi and no droid BOGO anymore on vzw's website . Although the site has conflicting data on pricing right now.

EDIT: Testman still shows BOGO droids and seems to be behind the real website
 
I have an Economy test tomorrow that I'm failing to study for because I'm so stuck on this forum. I better get off of here and go study 4 it. Talk to you gusy later and thanks for all of the help.

FedEx delivers 100% of VZW devices to stores. UPS only brings small things. Freight comes in on Tuesdays sometimes, but almost always on Wednesdays.

My contacts in this market did not receive any new devices or accessories today. Just old stuff.

Don't expect stores to have devices in stock until a few days prior to release. I think we may have an announcement soon, but the release clearly will not be as soon as an announcement (or "official leak").
 
Hey all...I guess I'm a lurker altho I think a lurker sounds like a peeper. Anyhoo, I joined this site back in Dec when I got the new Motorola Droid...I didn't like it, took it back. So now I'm stuck with a BB curve, the newer one with the pad not the track ball. Now I wait...for the Incredible. Just wanted to thank everyone for all the useful info.
