Yes, I understand that and I did know that going in. What I am annoyed with is that it's at the newspaper's discretion whether or not they print it. The paper where my first school was located never published it outright. The local paper where I work now does. AND I have never seen a specific newspaper article published that listed the salary of every DOT worker or state government official. I can deal with public record, not putting it out there to piss people off!
Can't really go into it (not saying this because I have no idea), but to say a little, the mobile/app version of Youtube will look different in the system than lets say streaming youtube through your phone from your computer.
I wouldn't be in retail if I couldn't handle people. It's all about how you are when you come into the store. If someone comes in screaming and yelling right off the bat and telling me what I'm going to do, you bet that won't fly. I am not the type to throw whatever you want at you to make you go away. But if you come in and realize that I am trying to help you when your battery is shot and out of warranty, sure I will give you 25% off your battery.
I don't enjoy when people just run their mouth in a thread that has nothing to do with the topic or people who continuously spread misinformation. That is one thing I don't have patience for. Oh, and you don't have to read my posts either if it bothers you so much.
I hit 154 GB this month!
Geezzzz, what are you doing with that phone?? Actually... don't wanna know
I may be wrong here but I was under the impression that it is unlimited data on your phone and that the 5G limit only applies to tethering. Though that is why it is called the unlimited data plan
Correct.
Appreciated
And honestly, I'm not entirely sure about it, but when a phone is going to be released, they roll the phones out to teams like QA (Quality Assurance) and the Data Team for them to test it and see what bugs they can find and things like that. However, with the Nexus, I would doubt that anyone would test it internally since Google is selling it through them. Maybe a few, but not like when we normally launch a phone.
Wow, a lot's happened here, tonight.
1) You all got a request to stay on topic by anonimac...(thank God I stay on topic)
2) We're getting our phone this month as it's in final testing.
3) We're getting an iPhone-type phone this summer
4) Viper was able to confirm some specs from his internal screen sources at Vz.
aaaand:
Viper had a bad day. 
(thanks for your help)

Talked to my insider and got the following info.
First off
1. Sorry no additional spec detail.
2. He received his info from his insider at his regional distro. and not forums (important). He even accidentally mentioned his name. Don't ask, sorry.
3. Once again like last time it started out with several employee's and then ended up just He and I. He could tell me because he hadn't gotten his info from official Verizon channels but through contacts he's close with. See Flame suit on item 4.
Flame Suit on:
1.He reconfirmed his original quote to me of 70,000 units on order but added that it was regional.
2.He said that it was in what he called "Friendly testing" which is the last step before release.
3.There is no question that it exists!!!
4.Any and all details (he specifically mentioned the Cellebrite & insider pages) is intentionally leaked by Verizon. Not intentionally announced but put conveniently where it can leak out to those who are looking (us).
5.He mentioned that it could even release this week because the BOGO went off last week and was scheduled for another one in two weeks. But 
. . . not to hold my breath. But that the release was imminent.
* * * He's not been wrong so far with me. You can go back and read all my posts but everything he's told me has been spot on. * * *

Cool, and I'm assuming someone like you doesn't receive word of the phone until it's officially announced?
Btw: I noticed that you started a "Verizon tech here: ask away" thread. If you're the same poster that started a similar thread on droidforums.net you realize that you're gonna get swamped again right?

Haha, not a bad day but all tend to be irritating to some degree. As you can imagine, no one comes into the store to say "Hey, the phone and coverage is great, thanks!!" haha lots of problems, but hey, that's the job. Doesn't mean I can't get irritated and be an e-thug on da forums, yo

Thank you for your permission some will gladly accept.
P.S. Please don't interrogate us on "how we shouldn't even know about the phone"
You shouldn't be on these forums you could lose your job. Confidentiality.

Well, sorta correct. I'm lower than whale sh1t on the Verizon ladder haha but I am good friends with some QA people and others that work with devices and test them so I get some information that others wouldn't. Plus as I said earlier, if you dig a little through VzW's internal stuff, you can find some pretty cool things
And yes, that was me haha I just couldn't keep up with that anymore and hence, am not a mod anymore. But that's understandable.
I think I will head into the live chat for a little if anyone wants to ask questions there and not clutter the thread.
Not necessarily true. Traditional YouTube uses Flash on the PC vs H.264 on the phone. But you can also load H.264 on the PC. HTML5 is now available which uses H.264 on the PC. So it does not necessarily indicate tethering. As I said, its at best a guess.
So it sounds like you're saying Flash implies tethering. That won't be true either as the phones begin to support Flash.

Viperboy....no need to correct or answer everyones post.
Ignore these people Viperboy. A lot of us scroll through pages of off topic nonsense every day in hopes of some information about the Incredible and when someone actually provides it hes attacked? Are people really getting their feelings hurt because of his tone?

Yes that's the same screen I saw. It was the only phone for release this month, for Android, in that price range. I figured if BBM gets it by the end of the month Verizon will get it no later. I can't freaking wait.
I'm not "interrogating" you on that, it's true, you guys shouldn't, but nothing ever stays a secret.
And actually, I have no NDA or anything of the sort. However, that's the chance I take. But think about it... who is Verizon gonna be more pissed at... the guy who is just talking alot and giving out harmless specs or someone who is posting screenshots of our systems and not being smart enough to remove the EXIF data in those shots (you can kinda make out what store location some of the shots were taken from in the EXIF thumbnail in those pictures).

speaking of the N1, if little or no internal testing, what's holding up its release?
I resemble that remark! - Status
