First Off - What's up Forum!?! I have been lurking in the shadows (that comment is used alot in this thread) but I had to tell you my VZW story that happen earlier today - first off I am no noob to the tech scene (owner/founder of WJDDesigns.com) and work with sites like Crackberry.com and many other sites... so that means I am well respected and have no reason to lie...
Okay so when I walk in to my local Verizon, the workers treat me like a tech Jesus which is awesome, they are a pretty cool group of people. I walked up to one of the guys who always shakes my hand and he of course did just that... He was like whats up Wayne D, buying another BB today?! I said nah, I got enough at the house and I have been eyeing a different phone from a different mother coming later this month. He then shouted "THE INCREDIBLE?!?"... You should have seen my face, all of you guys have had "hush hush" reps and secret talk so I planned for that... So I then said yeah, how did you know? (still stunned lol) He said, "Man you always get the newest and hottest tech out, why wouldn't yah!? I said yeah, so do you have any scoop - mind you there were people walking around looking like zombies wanting assistance and by this time I got 2 other workers added to the convo haha...
I said so does anyone know a confirmed day or anything? They all shrugged... I said well then pffft... then this girl came over to me talking about how she bought one of my themes for her BB and so on...mean while, I am looking at another rep that overheard (amazing how those store reps can over hear lmao) he gave me the 'come over here when you got a minute look... I walked over and we shook hands, he said, "so what are you hear for?" I said, "I need to know some info on this HTC Incredible man..." He says "I heard from someone real close the 19th, granted it could come the 29th like people think, but I am putting money down for the 19th... Now there is no reason this guy would lie to me and definitely want's to be in my good graces... So I made sure we exchanged cards and I said I will be contacting you to get in to the system in the next few days - I want you to do this like flushing the toilet, everyday try to find info in Big Red... he laughed and he said - "you the boss man... Ill text you or you text me to ask to see if I got some more info, Ill do my best to get some kind of inside track..."
The thing that sucks is the manager was gone on vacation which he is a close buddy of mine... The funny thing is I was told he had to take it during this time because he has to come back before a certain few days... hmmmmm
I walked out of that store and told myself, this story may not top the story of the mystery man in the white Lexus but I tried to get it done
MINUS the pictures some people add in... almost did voice note recording of conversations with the reps...maybe I will soon haha...
Anyways - not bad for my first post... Good job with all these pages and let the speculating keep going!
BTW my BDAY is tomorrow - I will take any late Incredible present heh...
