WiMax will quickly become outdated. It's basically hi-powered long range WiFi. LTE definately will blow it away and like it's name (long term evolution) LTE will become the new standard for a long time...

Twill be awesome!!

I figured I should come clean and let you guys see what my current background on my LG Dare is. It has been this for the past couple of weeks. Does it mean you have problems if your current phone wallpaper is a picture of your future phone? Probably... haha

Make it your desktop wallpaper and we'll talk.

When I bought an Incredible yesterday there were only 40 accessories listed and when I bought one today there were 45. It appeared that 3 of the new additions were some added hard cases but I didn't notice what the other 2 additions were. If they continue adding accessories each day and if you would like to order accessories it might be best to wait until closer to the 28th to have the best selection.

They didn't have screen protectors when I pre-ordered. Seems people are seeing them now.
 
So I went by a Best Buy yesterday and put down my $50 place keeper. I put the reciept in my wallet with the gift card and now I have this impulse to take it out and read "HTC Incredible" on the first physical evidence that this phone is coming to ME. Anyone else have similar issues?

I'm waiting to hear back from VZW I requested them to move my NE2 date up from 9/3/10 to tomorrow so I can order it.
Click to expand...

My NE2 was up in July and they didn't bump that up but they did bump up my early upgrade. That's fine with me!

Edit: Just for more clarification, I can't preorder. The supervisor that called me back told me that I had to call customer service and order it on the 29th. I did get back in touch with them and confirmed that there is a note on my account. So... I won't have it on the 29th but I don't have to wait until July. I'll probably just pay for overnight shipping.

As a proud Dare (and hopefully soon to be Incredible) owner, I must say....this is awesome.
 
Ok I'm curious to see what the people who are getting deliveries today and who say they only ordered phones, have in those boxes. What time zone are you in? I'm hoping to hear before I have to head to work this afternoon...If anyone says they have an actual incredible I am calling verizon and harassing them until someone releases a phone to me. I dont care if I have to wait 8 days to activate it, I just need it in my greedy little hands. Happy 9 days people, we are in single digits!!

Ridata 16GB MicroSDHC Class 6 MLC Flash Memory Card with SD and Mini SD Adapter - Retail Pack - SuperMediaStore.com

It was 49.00 last week

I decided to go ahead with the 8gb card for 17.99 and free shipping. I figure in 6 months I could jump to a bigger card and put this card in a different device. I ordered 3 of them for 2 Incredibles and an extra one for whatever.

^ looking forward to hearing if some of you get it today as well...seems like a decent # of people received shipping notifications!
 
After numerous tries (persistence) I was finally able to get my NE2 pushed up from July to April 20th.

Now I can order my new Incredible while using my NE2 :D. Happy Dance!!!

I decided to go with this as well.... No reason to spend the extra cash if I'm not going to use the space. And you're right I can always throw it in another device if I find I need more space. Thanks.
 
I wish I would have asked this yesterday, but anyone that has had their hands on the phone:

Do the capacitive buttons need pushed a bit higher than expected as with the N1 or do they react as they should like on the Droid?

Thanks!

(this really won't sway my decision, I pre-ordered yesterday because VZW moved my upgrade date from 5/12 to 4/19 :-D)

What was the last straw that got them to approve your NE2?
Click to expand...


If you guys have any tips on getting them to move the date please let me know. I have a friend that really wants to get this phone too, but his upgrade date is also months away. Let me know what you guys think and I'll tell him to give it a shot :D

Thanks in advance!

Honestly it seems like it was just getting a CSR that was actually willing to move my NE2 up. I had written a few e-mails through the "contact us" section on the website and consequently gotten a few calls from other reps (women, I don't know if it makes a difference) saying they couldn't. This time all I got was a new e-mail back (Jason) saying he would be happy to assist me so that I could order my Incredible as soon as possible.

In almost identical e-mails I had said that I had been with the company since 2000 and was thinking about also upgrading a secondary line on my family plan from a dumbphone to an Incredible, which would add an additional $30 data package to my plan.

Long story short, I really have no clue, one rep just was willing to move it. Keep trying.

You are correct. I forgot that one. The screen protectors was not there when I ordered my phone on Sunday. Yesterday when I ordered my wife's phone they were there. Great catch!
 
Surprised I haven't seen mention of this here...

DROID Incredible by HTC Interactive "How To" Simulator
from the verizon site Welcome to Verizon Wireless Support - Verizon Wireless Support

Also, stopped into Best Buy and Verizon yesterday. Talked with the Verizon Store Manager for a while about the Incredible, he couldn't say much, but expected to have enough stock on hand for the demand. There were no Pre-Buy's at Best Buy yet, I would have been the first. Those guys claim they did learn they were getting it until two days ago. These stores are close together, so between the two I should be able to get one on the 29th without blind buying.

I remember reading awhile back that this issue was resolved with the 2.1 update. I cant remember where it was in the forum probably like 400+ pages back lol. Also remember seeing it in a review somewhere online
