It says "The expected release date is May 23rd according to emails sent out by Best Buy last week."
But then again, I've already had my hopes dashed at least a couple times with supposed release dates of the Inc4g... So I'm setting my expectations low and assuming that it can't possibly be May 23rd!

It wont be. There was no Best Buy email about the Incredible 4G lol. This is how false rumors get spread on the internet. Best Buy sent an email to customers who preordered the Evo 4G LTE saying it would arrive on May 23rd. We can probably assume if it doesnt release this week or next, it's been delayed again.
This article posted above says the 4g will have 275 pixels and a display resolution of 540 x 960 pixels.
I just compared it to the iPhone 4s and that has 960-by-640-pixel resolution at 326 ppi.
How can the Inc 4g be 100 less in the width than the iphone when the 4G will have a larger screen? 540 for the 4g and 640 for the iphone. So both phones have the same pixels in the height? 960?
To compare: the original incredible had 3.7-inch 480

The aspect ratio on the iPhone is 3:2 whereas the new DInc is 16:9, and the screen size being bigger just means the pixels themselves will be bigger.

Oops, missed that.
The videos from the CTIA show the 4g will have a front vga camera. Why would they go backwards, didn't the droid inc 2 have a 1.3MP front-facing camera? I wonder if what we saw at the show will be the final version or could the delay be they are adding different specs to the final ver.

They've had this phone under wraps for a while, and they said they were preparing it for release in a few weeks. The One S also only has a VGA camera. Dont expect any sudden changes. Also, i believe they said the hardware is final, but the software is not
With the good lighting I agree. I didn't see a vid with poor lighting though.

Amazon Wireless and Wirefly are showing a $40 credit on your bill if you upgrade to a 4G phone on or before May 24th. Come on, phone gods...
Yeah, here is Phil from Android Central with the One S front cam under poor lighting. The other vids under good lightening show better, to me it doesn't look like VGA it looks better.

I feel like I'm constantly being Rick-Rolled every time I get an email saying there is another post in this thread.
I really should un-subscribe. Wait until I see an ad or something before I come back.
But there are a lot of things I should do.

I said the same thing a while ago.
I do not subscribe to this tread but I check it out enough in a day. I really should just wait till I see an ad and then come back to this forum after I pick it up to see tips and tricks...

I really want to know why they're waiting so long to release the phone. I think hardware has been final since early April.
Anyways, most likely it'll launch next week like Phonedog claimed. Since the Evo 4G LTE is now launching this Thursday

U.S. import review to have limited effect on HTC sales: analyst - CNA ENGLISH NEWS
"Although T-Mobile USA and Verizon Wireless have reportedly delayed their offerings of another two HTC phones, the Amaze 4G and the Droid Incredible 4G LTE, following the customs' review, this will not affect HTC greatly due to a smaller contribution of the phones to sales, Pu said"
I seriously have been waiting for this phone for exactly 2 months now. TWO MONTHS. This phone will last a long time when it comes out, the S4 will be amazing. .-. I just don't know much longer this Ally will put up for.... The worst part is I know I'm going to wait for this phone no matter what, (unless it's like delayed like til August), so the delays are irritating me so much. I just don't understand Verizon, why not just release the f$#%ng phone already??? Right now it feels like this phone will never be here >_>
As soon as we approach one rumored release date, it keeps getting pushed back and back and back.
Edit: On a side note, I refresh the page like every 10 minutes hoping something will happen. Seriously. Something happen. I need a new phone.. everything else available sucks. The Nexus at the VZW store actually barely worked, it was quite annoying. The S4 should make this phone nearly lag-free... My god, this summer is going to go by so slowly with all these Dinc4G delays.

Update: Nothing left to see here people, please move along. The 4g has capacitive buttons, but my premise is still valid
I predict ladies especially will like this phone. Smaller size
Thought ladies like larger size
Trying out razr maxx right now as i've been waiting on inc 4g

Sounds like VZW is not treating this as a flagship phone, which may be good news for those of us who want to buy it off-contract.
The wait has finally inspired me to root and flash a ICS rom on my Dinc2, which will keep me entertained for a while...

While you are running those ics builds you will realize why you want what you and I are waiting for.
