I somewhat agree with you, but, doesn't Verizon do pre-orders online? Maybe you can't pre-order in the store, so, only corporate would need to know that it's going to happen. Also, Verizon doesn't want to push this phone, that is pretty clear at this point.
I am doubtful that we'll see anything tomorrow, but, at this point, nothing would surprise me.
Medford is the only one in NJ I haven't been too. Only been to the township (Washington) one for lunch a few times. Maple Shade is good if you don't like crowds and has a some what manageable parking lot which is sacrilege for PJs.
Been on that bridge twice (15 minutes away)... it really scares my wife and I don't blame her.

Razr was probably autocorrected in Excel and it doesn't look like it's the whole spreadsheet in view.

I was being playfully hyperbolic. No offense to you and your R phone. I'm sure it's lovely.
Edit: I guess I should start using smileys so people know when I'm kidding

I'd be up for that, except no drinks for me.
No worries, the wings will accomplish the same thing. It's a win win.
The one in Cherry Hill on 70 is the one I usually end up at, now that the one in Lakes isn't within walking distance anymore. Tends to be a middle point for most people.
I agree, PJs hires some top notch talent.
I remember doing the sign-up for the Bionic... They sent an email about it prior to posting the Bionic on their website. Maybe, just maybe we will hear something soon... I mean the original sign-up for google, Samsung and Verizon, then not use all those precious email addresses?

Yea but this is Verizon. They seem to think it's more important to keep it secret then have their employees informed.
I prefer instant gratification and making sure everything is in-line with my unlimited data. So, In-store for me. However, if they start putting stuff on it I will become Incredible Hulk. NO ONE touches it. Let alone put dumb apps on it I will never use.

I've rarely have that issue w/ my Verizon store...for my thunderbolt they just activated the 4g similar card, put it in, and handed the phone too me...now my D1 was a different story but I needed the help there(1st android device)
By members private requests, here are some clarifications -
To a point.
Phases approved this response -
That said, BMX and p3droid are members here - if they join in the talks here in our forums (as BMX did during the Thunderbolt launch), then we will back them as we would anyone else with a no name-calling rule for common courtesy and dignity.
Please think of it like any other venue you know - it's ok to call the President some rough stuff on a forum because you may disagree with his public policies - but if he comes and has a town meeting, all are expected to just be polite and call him Mr. President. He enters the room knowing he has supporters and detractors and that decorum removes personalities and fosters discussion of issues. That's the best analogy I can give.
And as was done for the Bolt launch, if either would like to come here to talk, they'll be afforded their own thread as befitting their community status on this matter.
Please note the first sentence, please keep the expressions within the site rules.
~~~~~~~~
+1 to both.
Exactly - it's all about the context.
~~~~~~~~
The discussion here is about the carrier and/or their sales reps -- the response here goes to our fundamental site rule of politeness.
Some have encouraged harassing CSRs or mail bomb campaigns. (See Rob's words on this.) That's not polite, it's not the AF way, we won't let AF become a springboard for it.
OK to ask CSRs things (naturally, that's their job) and ok to report what you find or think. Not OK to do it just to prove CSRs aren't bright and not OK to take one bad experience and then slag every salesperson or CSR ever born. It's not ok to harass people whose hands are tied and discuss or brag on it here. Fair is polite, not fair is not polite.
OK to express opinions and frustrations - otherwise - what would be the point in this climate?
~~~~~~~
Expletives deleted. We've got a word filter, we don't like it bypassed with stars because the word is really still there. This is not a new site policy, that's always drawn a mod edit when noticed.
Euphemisms are ok, as you'd hear on TV - freaking, etc etc. Some of us are old enough to remember Sarge from the Beetle Bailey comics - he often said to the troops in the kiddie's funnies - @~#///&!!! and that was good enough to get the idea across but it kept it fun and friendly. (note that the expression length and makeup makes it generic, unlike the usual use of stars)

Bottom line - these are not new rules for the site, they've always been there, but there are nuances that we're always happy to clarify within threads upon request.
Mods don't make policy nor pass arbitrary judgement - we just follow and stress the existing rules. Please contact any of us on mod staff if clarification of a rule is needed - please contact Phases if you disagree with a rule in principle.
Our doors are ALWAYS open.
Please wrap ALL off topic posts posts in a hide tag. For example:
Off Topic: [hid e]Hidden text here, remove the spaces in the hide tags themselves to make them work.[/hid e]
Cheers, many thanks for your time!
Name calling ok if target is a public figure of any sort and language used is within forum guidelines?Don't forget, forum rules, those who call others dorks and nerds are dweebs.
Although there may be an exemption for those who also call themselves dorks in the same post. Need a ruling here.
To a point.
Phases approved this response -
Our general idea is that people who make themselves public phenomena set themselves up as fair game for positive or negative public opinion and all expressions thereof are fair game, so long as the language doesn't violate our rules.
This is in contrast to private individuals who join here agreeing to our terms and conditions.
Mod staff has yet to find any double standard on this.
If anyone believes mod staff is wrong in this approach, please PM your views on the matter to Phases.
Cheers, many thanks!
