***Official HTC Incredible Thread***

[Montana Man]

MM, I have 99.99% confidence in an April launch

Thanks, pal! You rock!

On another note, I will be keeping my little collection of assorted alcoholic beverages, as "HTC Incredible" is clearly NOT the same as "Droid Incredible."

...The defense rests - your honor?

The name in the manual is not the name on the pre-release site

It also said the manual was subject to change.

 

[elrabin]

Oh, snap! The phone is coming to T-Mobile, too? Incredible!

One word. No

The costco screenshot is for Wireless Advocates.

They sell to costco Verizon, ATT, Tmobile phones among other stuff.

Wireless Advocates, LLC

its a typo.

Additional proof, there has been no FCC filing for a GSM HTC incredible.

On top of that Tmobile in Europe is selling the HTC Desire, why wouldn't Tmobile sell the Desire?

Here is what you need to do to get it to work:
Click Start - Run
Type CMD
The type fdisk c:

It should work for you then.

Okay... that is just cruel and totally uncalled for. Not everyone would know what would happen if they did that. A whole lot of people that are here are NOT computer geeks and all they want is a really incredible phone.

This is going to be.

The longest.

Two weeks.

Of.

My.

Life.

Did you read the sentence below what you quoted?

Number one...If I were to make a joke about Mr. Worf's head, would you join me in a laugh? *Yes Captain...* Mr. Worf's head looks like a fanny *HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA* "You can all suck my ridges!!!"

Great Family guy episode!

I can't recall there being an SKU# for the Incredible, but if anyone has it, try calling CSR and ordering by the SKU#. Last year when I was waiting for the Env Touch, I called, gave them the SKU# and they were able to order the phone 2 weeks before launch.

Just a thought..

 

[VGPOP]

The price will be the same $199 for signing a new 2 yr contract and if you have your NE2 it would be another -50 to 100 dollars off.

If you order the phone online you can charge it on your bill.

Thanks!

What I find interesting is that while Verizon is venturing further into Google's world with Android, they still continue to provide email through Yahoo portal via their FIOS offering.

Would using Gmail better the overall experience for someone using both FIOS and Android Wireless smartphones.

I am currently on their 1 Bill for TV/Internet/Phone/Wireless

Comments? Does this belong in another thread?

Makes great sense for consumers and as a result, their business:

1. Differentiation from iPhone and WP7
2. Consumer has more device choice, rather than contrained selection of iPhone and WP7 hardware (aka, wPhone).
3. Devs are starting to get in the groove now

The one HUGE (emphasis- HUUUUGE) caveat is the lack of app space. The market for commercial apps will implode unless Android fixes this, but appears best case will be 2011 for a major Android update that corrects this. By then, all mid to high end Android devices will ship with 1gb as a min for apps, so perhaps Android never will add apps2sd to the framework (perhaps Android is counting on this, since they truly DESPISE the concept of apps2sd).

Simple analogy: It is like building a mall (Android market) with no parking (app space). Virtually all major devs point the app spcae as the reason for not investing in the platform.

Why? What would happen? I almost did this...

 

[tdub88]

this weekend? naw...

So you're saying sooner........

 

[Deleted User]

Nothing negative will come from giving them your email. Why would a company punish customers who are stumbling over each other to give them money for their products?

 

[jjfitz0]

Exactly...look at the dates on several of the phones. I don't think they were the actual release dates.

Although, maybe Verizon is planning a Cinco de Mayo release celebration ...Incredible tequila shots!

Hey, that would be my birthday...

I don't actually celebrate it, BUT if they want to give me an incredible present anyway, I just might make an exception, you know, just this once...

 

[jonhapimp]

Damn i'm not going to sleep on week days ever again...or until the phone comes out

 

[Crashumbc]

Let me bump my own question. Hopefully someone has the answer.

Thanks!

Generally you need to pay for the phone separately and right away.

 

[eidolways]

This is going to be.

The longest.

Two weeks.

Of.

My.

Life.

At least until the next longest two weeks, when you're waiting for the Droid Incredible 2 with LTE.

 

[blue rocket]

everyone should post up screenshots of the Increible on verizon's twitter account

Exhibit A:

It will NOT be named the Incredible upon release! Quote me on that! Heck, I'd wager my wine cellar!

Since there was no stipulation that there wouldn't be and preceding or trailing nomenclature, it was clear your assertion was that it wouldn't have the Incredible name anywhere in it's designation.

Sorry charlie...

 

[GlacialBass]

Why? What would happen? I almost did this...

Nothing would happen if you still had Windows running. fdisk is a command that will format the disk specified (in this case your primary partition, C).

The guy was just being a dick, don't worry about it.

 

[booboop38]

I only needed to read one word...

*FLASH*

ahhh...(slumps slowly to the floor)

 

[YamiYaiba]

The name in the manual is not the name on the pre-release site

BOOM! ROASTED!
sorry...I'm getting too excited....and it's been forever since someone said that.

edit: /waits for response saying the site was wrong/

 

[elrabin]

nevermind
