I've never ordered a new phone on first day of release before. Is the first batch of devices usually buggy and have issues? If so, is it best to wait for a second batch of devices? I'm comparing it to the likes of video game consoles. :/
 
Okay, I'm dumb...I saw the .jpg, but where can I preorder on the 19th? There is a BB and a VZW store across the street from one another. I'm up for my NE2 (been waiting for this since October). The deal at either place is the same right? What are the benefits of going to BB over VZW? Just the instant rebate? Any drawbacks?
 
Only wifi b/g - oh well not a big deal.

FM Tuner...Confirmed

Phone looks and sounds incredible!

One question regarding the FM tuner, though.

The incredible-preorder jpg shown on the front page of Phandroid.com states that a wired set is required for use (because that would be antenna I assume). Does this mean we can't use an AD2P bluetooth headset to listen to FM radio? I was hoping to use the FM tuner at the gym in order to tune into the audio for the various televisions set up there.
 
Ok but the question still remains...If we pre-order are we getting this thing on the 29th for sure, or are we going to get that bullshit from Verizon where it ships "late" on Thursday and "oops, we sent it 2 business day so you'll get it Monday"

Also, when can we go into a Verizon and smack them with a phone book and tell them "God damn it! This is no longer a Unicorn, you know it exists, what happens if I pre-order or what time are you opening?!?! WHERE IS YOUR SECRET HIDDEN BASE?!"

Wikipedia said:
MIMO is a technology which uses multiple antennas to coherently resolve more information than possible using a single antenna. One way it provides this is through Spatial Division Multiplexing (SDM). SDM spatially multiplexes multiple independent data streams, transferred simultaneously within one spectral channel of bandwidth. MIMO SDM can significantly increase data throughput as the number of resolved spatial data streams is increased. Each spatial stream requires a discrete antenna at both the transmitter and the receiver. In addition, MIMO technology requires a separate radio frequency chain and analog-to-digital converter for each MIMO antenna which translates to higher implementation costs compared to non-MIMO systems.
