Can we find another way into https://infodoc.verizonwireless.com/Infomanager/Areas/Equipment/159211.htm ?

I don't really buy the error message. Any insiders know if there's actually a login page for this site or is the error message just a smoke screen?

My guess would be that they didn't check for logged in credentials before and we were able to access it without being logged in to their website. Verizon probably saw their internal info being passed along the internet, and decided to fill in the hole.

I can see hitting really big numbers just with the phone, unless they limit the maximum file size. Why would you have Internet at home if your phone could download everything you wanted onto the 8,16, or 32 GIG card. On a trip and you wanted to d/l something why not let your phone d/l it while your driving.... then transfer it from your sd card to your computer. And what if your watching streaming video all the time..... the number will only get higher when LTE is in place...... just my opinion

If you are talking about torrents, that would kill your sd card incredibly fast. They have a limit on the amount of saves you can make and after it won't work. This is why you shouldn't install windows on a sd card or flash drive.

So then, they know we know. I wish they would end this charade!
 
So I have been lurking here for a few months now and have been waiting and waiting and waiting with extreme anticipation for something "Incredible" (like everyone else here). However, now that we know for sure that the iphone is coming to VZW this summer, what are your thoughts on waiting for the iphone?? This will be my first smartphone so I really am in the dark about all of this.

Anyways I thank everyone in here for their continual entertainment! ;)

...and dont bite my head off about the iphone. i just want a REALLY good phone that wont be outdated the second i buy it.

This is Verizon, they're probably gonna get the iPhone 2G and in 2 years, you might be able to get the 3GS if it passes all their 'rigorous' testing.

Edit: I also wouldn't go as far to say Verizon knows anything for sure about any device 3 months away.

I love the iphone, but I have serious doubts the iphone will be on Verizon this year, it's whatever device comes out first that I have been eyeballing Incredible,iphone,BB Storm 3 (shocker),Evo 4G,Nexus (Verizon)....see I'm not picky.

I personally think Android's OS is far better than iphone's especially for a tech savvy person. All my opinions may change though when Apple release more info on iphone OS 4.0 on Thursday. Although I doubt they will change much because of the direction they went with the Ipad OS.

I must admit that I am curious about the 4/8 press conference for apple. I am amazed at how well they keep things covered up. HTC has info leaked out on the Incredible back in Dec/Jan, I believe. This thing has no info, pix or specs.
 
I can't believe this thread is up to 500 pages yet here we sit in the dark with no Official details on this phone...

We could have determined if the Shroud of Tourin was real of fake at this point....but the Incredible still remains a mystery to some degree...

I believe the 4/8 conference is for the OS, and the Summer conference is usually where they get the new iPhone.....only the original iPhone was announced outside of the summer conference.

Yeah, but sometimes they do the "one more thing" announcement. It's totally possible they could unveil Verizon's Iphone. I really disagree with the way Verizon/HTC is doing business with us. I am not an Apple fanboy, but at least they make announcements and let anticipation build. Look 300,000 Ipads and the thing blows. I saw better specs on the HP Slate.
 
Just an FYI folks.......not once since I have been in this forum has Testman being down led to anything. I know it's some glimmer of hope to cling to but do you honestly think that they will be putting things on Testman now after being so secretive about everything else?

For testman to be the VZW "official" introduction portal would make them the dumbest company in the world (behind the company that allows the competition and other technology companies to overshadow them by releasing products, specs and information about flagship and upcoming devices.....oh wait.........)

Yup - 4/8 is about OS4.0 for iphone - don't expect any hardware news. Speculation is that June 22nd there will be an event for the next iphone which typically launches mid July.
 
First, I want to say that my search for info on the Nexus One brought be here a while back. This thread sold me on the Incredible, so the waiting game began.

This will be my first smart phone. And one of the things that sprung to mind when thinking of an internet and wifi enabled phone was using it as a mobile hotspot. I was disappointed to learn that this is only allowed at extra cost above the not so unlimited data plan.

Someone mentioned that it is $15 a month for this app/feature. (I'm not really looking to root the phone) My question would be, is it a constant $15 a month, or only charged in the months you use it? I'd only really need it when I'm travelling to visit family, some of which don't have wifi. So it wouldn't be a constant thing.

Would I be able to call up Verizon and request the feature to be activated when I need it? Would I also then be able to turn around and have them take it back off to avoid constant charges for it?
