An update from my Corporate office...

Because I still have a slight glimmer of hope that it might be released in the near future. To be honest, my job kind of depends on reliable communications, which is not something my current phone can give me, due to the service. With me not willing to buy any of vzw's current offering of Androids (all obsolete), and Samsung being Samsung, HTC's my last choice (and the best choice at that).

I might have been a little rant-y earlier, but I am very very frustrated about this release. It's like they are still developing this thing (and from what I heard from vzw, it still is, in their words, being developed).

Ben5 and BMX say its ready
 
You would be surprised. All my friends say why are you getting a 4G when they have 6g??

I was being hyperbolic with my statement. I know about 5G (not coming soon). What I meant to say is that at this rate (n+7 = TB release), we might have 5G, drive in hovercars, and live on the Moon before it's released!
-end hyperbolic, rant-y speech here-

I am just frustrated, pure and simple.

You know if I were a Duke fan I'd say, "Your friends must be tarheels".... :p


Alas I'm not.....and actually don't care much for em....

one thing to remember, this isn't our dream phone, it's the one after that.......
 
So they are going to open each and every retail box in every case and re-flash them manually? That's a very inefficient way to handle it, in my opinion. I would have them do it at the point of sale. I still think the phone is hitting on the 17th.

That's what I was told.

Liberation do you honor corporate discounts that we get through Verizon?

Yes

How would buying a phone through you work? Do we call Vzw for activation, etc?

We're a full fledge Verizon store. We can do everything a corporate store does except warranty repair.

Lib,
Here is my take on this. Correct me if I'm wrong.

1) I could order through you through email or however you want.
2) You could then add the amount due to my Verizon bill. This may be sketchy - never done it this way but assume it's possible.
3) Ship it
4) I would then be able to activate on my own when it arrives.

1. Yes
2. No. You could pay over the phone.
3. Yes
4. Yes

Do you know if Skype will be available for the phone at some point, if not with initial release?

Also, where in Maryland is your store.

I've been told yes.

Wireless Zone
3229 Spartan Road
Olney, MD 20832
301.570.9663

Im in Jersey, but if you can cut me a fair deal my business is yours! :-)

I'll do everything I can to gain your business!

Where is this wireless zone in MD? I am currently located in Harford County.

^^See above.

So they had to recall the phone to flash all of them? The couldnt just do a OTA update when you activate it? Yea Bmx said a week ago that the firmware ETC. was done. I still think we are good for a 17th release though

GO TAR HEELS!

Can I buy it for full price off contract from you? I would rather give you my money than a corporate store.

Hi folks!

I've got a simple choice for you all.... either you keep this discussion civil or it will be closed, probably along with infractions issued.
 
As another VZW store owner its very common for the warehouse to reflash all phones. We get them with colored stickers a lot showing they've been flashed with an update.
 
So liberation, what exactly is the deal your offering on this phone? Im over in seattle, and as brutal as it would be to wait for it to ship here, if the deals right i could definitely get into this.

Maybe a discounted otter box case, or free car charger? Just tryin to see if its worth the wait i spose? Thanks either way!

if he provides free overnight shipping like vw.com then it's really a no-brainer.

As the TB drags on for release, civility will be at a premium :)
 
I would definitely like to purchase from you if it is safe to do so.

It's definitely safe man! We're a Premium Verizon Wireless store.

As soon as I get official pricing points on the phone...I will be letting you all know about what I can do for you.

I'll have these different options:

1. Local with a 2 year contract.
2. Local without a 2 year contract (Retail price).
3. Shipping with a 2 year contract.
4. Shipping without a 2 year contract (Retail price).

Hot dog, cant wait!
 
Can you do 1 year contracts?

So if I have a $30 upgrade credit with Verizon, can you match that and have it shipped by the release date? The way I'm leaning now, order it online when it becomes available and next week get it delivered to my door.

I can use your $30 credit but I don't know whether we'll have our inventory in enough time to have it at your day on the actual release date...but if so, then definitely!
