No this has to be done in store or over the phone...

to clarify- You can purchase online( for which ever line is eligible) then when you get the phone, call customer service and they can switch your numbers around for you. Have done it multiple times

Anonimac, can you please take me under your wing, explain and show me the ropes as a "Forum Guide"? I've politely read and reponded to posts in this forum but have been met with disrespect upon your part.

This isn't me, I am just reporting what I heard: Well According to a VZW rep Best Buy sells pre-tested, and -used phones instead of the new phone you perceive you're buying. Don't hate the messenger.

complete hogwash. It would be illegal for them to sell a phone as new when it's not.

Nowhere do they say in paperwork it's been tested, used, or refurbished.

VZW reps say crap like that because they know BB honors rebates instantly. Fact is, BB Mobile knows more about the phones than the d bags in the Verizon stores. Like the guy who tried to tell me the Eris was , and I quote, "way better than the Motorola".

On that same visit, a girl working there said "we have nothing better than the BB Storm 2".

I think Verizon gets their employees from Walmart once they get fired.

Hey Rookie, Anonimac was busting Steven58's balls. It had nothing to do with you. You totally misinterpreted.

I'm starting to think this whole thread, nay, the whole world is shopped... Columbus shopped the map to make us all believe the world isn't flat; the moon landing- totally shopped; kennedy assassination- shopped by the mafia, the cia, jack ruby, and the communists...

Yo columbus didnt discover america!!! Worst holiday ever and the worst thing to lie to little kids about that
 
I've been sold on the Incredible as the best Android phone anytime soon.

But now there's been news of other phones coming sooner than I thought. Sprint's EVO sounds great, but I can't go back to Sprint.

Just saw news that the Samsung Galaxy S went through FCC approval and is destined for AT&T sometime this spring/summer.

This phone has some cool features:
- Graphics chip much faster than Incredible, faster then iPhone 3GS
- 720p video recording
- 4" super AMOLED screen, supposed to be good in sunlight
- Front facing camera

Only thing I really don't like about it is that I think it may have a plastic screen and not glass. I assume the Incredible's is glass, but does anyone know if its hardened or scratch resistant? My iPhone is very scratch resistant unlike my G1.

I don't think Samsung's Android layer is as good as sense either.

Is it me or are people on here a little testy lately?

I think Rookie thought some of our normal Steven58 jabbing was directed at him which if you didn't know the full story could definitely seem bad, but Rookie, if you're reading this, I assure you that none of those posts were made to disrespect you in any way.

I wish we could nail down a release. Are we going with the 29th after today's rumblings?
Click to expand...

I suppose we are but I think we're all secretly dreaming of a surprise early release from VZW. At least I am. But I'm happy to have the (sorta)concrete date from BB to fall back on.

Can anyone answer this???

I did some looking after seeing that post that sense wouldn't go into landscape mode. The nearest version I could think to read about was Sense on the Desire. And on the Desire, according to the reviews I read, Sense DOES automatically switch over to landscape mode. I don't know what it will do in terms of docking, etc but I'm sure HTC has thought that through. The USB port is on the side which is a good sign for docks and I can't see HTC/VZW being happy to let the potential revenue from docks etc float away.
 
Supraman21 said:
Anybody else disappointed that the USB is located on the side? To me it seems the phone wasn't exactly well thought out. Like the power button and the volume rocker on the left side. You cant have both of them on the same side. Its just nor ergonomic ( I think thats the right word to describe it ). If you hold the phone with your left hand ( which I assume most people do ) your thumb is located on the the left side of the phone where the volume is. Makes sense but then your pointing finger is located on the top right where the 3.5mm head jack is located. The 3.5mm jack should have been located at the bottom so there could be docs with speakers made. I love having a dock for my phone and I really think the best way is having the phone straight up opposed to having it on its side. ohh and I really hope some one makes a back that is not contoured cause it looks really tacky. I like to pick up my phone knowing it is both featured rich with a gread OS and also looks high end. I dont want to pick it up every morning saying wth was HTC thinking?

I kind of agree, however, I havn't seen many phones where the the headphone jack was at the bottom, if you have music playing through headphones, do you want the phone to be upside down in your pocket? (it would if the headphone jack was on the bottom) I dont see how your finger would be hitting the headphones in the first place. by having a contoured back, the incredible is different than other phones, which is almost a pro, not a con. But i do think the usb dock should have been put on the bottom for easier docking.
