Is the case really thin like we've heard? Does the camera bezel stick out past the case or is it about flush? Wanting to know cause I'm looking at that case kinda hard.

Edit: Ender beat me to it!
 
My phone is on the FedEx truck for delivery here in Los Angeles. The tracking still says tomorrow. I am hoping it does get delivered today. I have had it happen where it will just sit on the truck until it is the 2nd day. So, I am keeping my fingers crossed!

And, I just went on Verizon Wireless to order a case and maybe a new Bluetooth. When I went to put the case in my cart the next page is completely blank. I thought it might have been the whole Mac/Firefox combo so I went to the darkside (my HP Laptop) and fired up Internet Exploder and it did the same thing there. I was thinking a case would be a good thing so my Inc won't be naked when it gets here. I don't want to call Verizon...ever again. Quite frankly, my husband is pretty sure they have my picture up with a big red circle and a line going through it.
 
My FedEx Tracking shows that it's out for delivery! ARGH I wasn't expecting it till tomorrow, & I didn't leave a note on the door for FedEx to leave the package... I'm gonna try & go home @ lunch to leave the note, hopefully FedEx doesn't come before lunch time!

Read the thread on battery life, it addresses the question you have perfectly.

The person that wrote that has no idea. They know nothing about Lithium-ion technology. Look at his wording. So many idiots follow dumb people that write stuff like they know what they are talking about. This person says you should cycle 3-5 times..... No, that is completely unnecessary, it just needs to hit bottom and hit top one time right off the bat, thats it. And if you want to play with your phone, pull the battery and plug into the wall and play with it until you are satisfied then turn it off and snap in the battery and let it charge. But then again, batteries are cheap! Less than 14 bucks for two 1500 MAH incredible batteries with a charger including shipping.

These are not NICAD batteries or even Nickel metal hydride, this is not the 80's. Battery care is not that big of a deal anymore, and like i said batteries are cheap, so who cares?
 
I chased the UPS guy today. Meet up and got my Incredible. Can't wait to get home now. I have the gradiant case also :D

It also came packaged with a 2GB memory card.

I ordered on the 19th and finally got my tracking info for UPS. Maybe i should of just went with Fedex since everybody is already getting their phones. My tracking info doesn't even register on the UPS website yet.

I got my UPS tracking email Monday (ordered 10:30AM delivery option), the tracking number didn't register on UPS.com 'til late last night, and it was delivered today... I wouldn't worry about the shipping carrier
 
Just called the store on North Ave. in Chicago, asked if they are going to have the phone in stock on Friday, she put me on hold, came back and volunteered that they will have it in stock on Thursday. If people are so geeked to get the phone, they might want to call their local store and see if they can get a similar response.
 
Can I has incredible now?
Pleze?

That would suck. My Inc left COATESVILLE, PA at 6:26PM Monday night.


Hope it wasn't heading for Nashville..

My last update was that of 6:26PM.. Figured it would have arrived somewhere by now.. :( Hopefully it's not laying on the side of the road

Mine left Coatesville and went to Newark where it has been sitting since 1:20am today.
 
So there is sat.

My brand new Incredible.

In a FedEx express shipping center, 4 miles from my home.

The response said "not due for delivery" when tracked, and I knew that big red was just teasing me.

again.

More.

Perpetually driving me slowly insane with hunger.

I NEED.

I LUST...

I have a Storm 1, for Chrissake....

So I gave in.

To fate, temptation, and a little "What the hell...?"

I called the Big shipper and talked to a CSR named Desiree.

Desiree?

More like Desire.

Fate, that wicked, evil mistress was laughing at me. Again.

or was it still?

I asked, per chance, if it might be possible to pick up the object of my desire today, instead of having it wait, lost in that nebulous space called (hyperbole?) "Release Date Timing"...

...and she said...

"Sure, the adress of the facility is 2500 Kimberly in Fullerton, Ca, and they're open til 8 tonight. Be sure to bring your ID. Thanks for calling FedEx!"

Final Score:

Fate: 1002
Me: 1.

ok about the gradient case, it is thin but it feels nice and when its placed on the phone it fits very snugly and makes the phone feel protected.

it is almost exactly flush with the ring around the camera, it may in fact stick out a mm past the lens. it lays flat on the table and is completely stable but i can't tell 100% for sure whether or not the camera lens is touching when i lay it on the table. its very close but i think we should be fine to not worry about scratching it.

hope this helps
