Date you ordered and received the phone vs. "will ship by" date

I hear you, Brother. I think my wife is about ready to either leave me or kick me out because I am obsessively checking FedEx and calling VZW like a crackhead who keeps checking the coin returns on the neighborhood pay phones.

I'm a college professor now on summer break and I know how that sounds to you poor bastards at work today, BUT I F--KING NEED THIS PHONE NOW BECAUSE I HAVE LOOKED FORWARD TO THESE SUMMER DAYS WITH MY FIX IN HAND, LIKE SOME KIND OF JUNKIE! I am even open to pimping myself out to the FedEx guy to get just "a lil' taste", you know - just tell me my junk is on the way, and I'll deal with this awful dopesick!!!!!

Calm down, professor! Every little Android is on it's merry way, like zombies in the night...

Don't worry, I'm there with ya - I checked my fedex tracking 2 hours after I went to bed last night.... doh!

I am a 5/25er as well I ordered and paid around noon oneish.. I am with you there I just was hoping that we wouldnt have to wait over the weekend being as lots of 5/24ers were getting them lastnite...Lets cross our fingers that we receive them at least by tomorrow...

I've been obsessively reading this thread for days now, and based on others experiences, I think us 5/29 should receive an email, stating that its been shipped, on the 11th or 14th and then hopefully have it by the 15th or 16th, if you got the next day shipping option. I really really hope so!!!!! Post as soon as you get word from verizon.

I would LOVE it if you were right, bc that would mean my 5/28 notification should come today or tomorrow...but really dont expect word until early-mid next week...the guessing games and theories are keeping me from going :eek: though :cool: and apps. i have too many apps ready to go. not that i have any where to put them lol

Ordered in store May 30th
Ship by date June 22nd

wish i wouldve ordered a day earlier to be in the 6/18 group. I hope it ships on the 18th or 19th so it can be here by the 22nd.
 
I gave my mother the rundown, as far as what date is getting theirs when and the date I anticipated our shipping info and actual phone...she told me I was investing too much time :/

The FACT is, she is the friend who gave me the first hit!!! I didnt even know I was upgrade eligible, she just BBM'd and said she ordered me a phone and it was a "blahblahblah." Great thanks ma, google: "droid inc"...oh...sweet...jesus...my mother is highly intelligent.
And now she is judging me?!?!? This is YOUR fault mother! Dont you dare judge me!!! Now, call VWZ and bitch for overnight shipping pls!!!


ps i <3 my mother :)

I have not dared to hope that I might see something today.

In-store 5/26ers, let our powers combine!

Ok.. all 5/26ers... lets do an Incredible dance to make our phones come! (see what I did there?)

I swear to you right here and now, if this phone doesn't come this week I'm probably going to get fired from work... I need the weekend to play with it. If it comes on Monday I'll end up spending 2 days playing with the thing instead of working.

When your powers combine i am captain droid incredible, here to take down the evil Steve jobs and Apple

THAT IS JUST SICK! Its one thing for a mom to be shooting BBMs around the kids - you see this all the time in known drug neighborhoods, and sick as it is, I guess the kids get used to seeing it. But nothing pisses me off more than to hear that this mother went so far as to BBM her own kid!

And then she has the junkie-gall to judge her kid's habit after SHE'S THE ONE WHO HOOKED THE KID IN THE FIRST PLACE!

They ought to lock that woman in a rehab with nothing but a Tracfone until she detoxes.

Hey... look at that shiney sparkle blue powder coat paint, though!!!!! AND it has a camera! Whoo-hoo!

Wow.. you need a fix, BAD
Click to expand...

It sure does have a camera... a vga camera. What's that, .25 megapixels? One good thing about it though... I think I've only plugged it in once in the entire time I've had it since 5/26. That sucker doesn't use battery at all. Of course, I finally gave up on texting with it, it has mobile web but on VZW's 1x network, and I don't really talk on it much.

I need a fix bad. I feel like an alien without my constant connection.

Might I suggest my lovely powder blue Samsung Smooth loaner phone? It has a camera (ignore my previous ranting about this lovely device)!!

Thank you for your understanding and support. I was hooked from the first PING! and thought it was the most incredible thing I had yet experienced in my life. Of course this was years before the good shit dinc.
 
Oh. My. God.

I just realized something - All this time spent in Android forums?

I think I'm a geek! Might as well pass me the SPF 500 sunblock and go ahead and sign me up for the A/V Club because its all over now. I am a grown man - wife, two kids, tenure at a nice little liberal arts college - and here I am deep (and I mean DEEP) into a thread about when my "new state-of-the-art technological device" is expected to arrive (say that last part with a nasally nerd voice)!

Christ, I should just hang a Battlestar Gallactica poster in my bedroom and start masturbating to the mammogram ads in my mom's Family Circle magazine.

Yeah man I'm sorry, I wasn't ever going to order from Verizon and wait 3 weeks, so I kinda of just held out to see when Best Buy or Amazon would get them in stock. Amazon has some in stock so I went ahead and pulled the trigger (after having Verizon move my upgrade up a week early) At least yours and mine are bought and we should be jamming on them by early next week.
 
Been lurking for months, first post.

Ordered 5/24
Email Notification: 6/9
Received:6/10

Was on my desk when I showed up to work! Charging now...

I guess either way it is basically the same result for us.

I just don't understand why VZW would send ANY Dincs to Best Buy or Amazon until they have enough to fill the demand coming through their own stores and site.
