If you don't have to upgrade so quickly, I would advise waiting until after the supposed release date of the phone, which is the 10th. IF there are no release date or the phone isn't released then, then you've lost only 10 days.
If you're tired of rumors and all, don't follow the forum. I've been trying to do the same. Just wait until BGR or Engaget post the VZW news release.

Im tired of rumors and all. I'm in love with the thunderbolt but the Incredible is soooo sexy! Any comfort or something?
you have made it this long, I'm sure you can make it a few days or weeks to get the TB. Nobody likes a quitter..

The Incredible is an awesome phone, but at this point it is almost a year old. Just wait it out.

Dinc 2 (or S) will be out soon for you if the Thunderbolt falters.

I was waiting to switch from Sprint for the TB, got impatient and picked up a dinc, I plan on returning it in the next two weeks, god willing the damn thing comes out by then. Honestly, this phone doesn't show its age at all though, much smoother than my evo, but I miss my kickstand and big screen...

Your so close! Just hang on a few more days!

Comfort? No.
However, I myself decided to embrace the DX I got in January. I ran out of "caring" whether the TB comes out soon, or ever. The DX does everything I want. I just received a huge refund ($100+) on most of the cost due to a coupon and the latest price drop. I have an Otterbox, a FM transmitter and a dock heading my way now. I am also looking at rooting it in the near future, just because I CAN.
Dunno if it is comfort, but personally I can wait till next september with the DX, and I suspect the Dinc could do the same for you. Let go of the ridiculous hype surrounding this phone.
What would a TB do for you that a Dinc (or DX for that matter) NOT do, beyond an incomplete 4G LTE coverage?
Seriously. Buy the Dinc (or DX) and save yourself a ton of money on the handset, and all the accessories that are tried and true. Revisit the current hype in 20 months.

Well, there's nothing wrong with the Incredible. It's a great phone. I guess it depends on what you're coming from. If you already have an Incredible or an X and are looking to upgrade, you'd most definitely wait. If you're coming from, say, an Ally, INC FTW!

I am also waiting for the TB to come out, could not go with out a phone any longer so I picked up a DINC from best buy for 99.99 on a 2 year contract will be final in 14 days however best buy has a 30 day equipment return policy so you can exchange for any phone and pay the difference. I would suggest you do that

You made the right choice. Perhaps even moreso with the new pricing plans coming out for the 4G devices.

On the flip side, he most likely saved $150-200 off of what a TB will be, for something that is doing exactly what he needs it to do. There is a point where paying a huge premium just to have "technology" that the average person will never even notice the difference of, becomes ludicrous.
The Droid Incredible supported flash lite before Froyo came out. With Froyo came full Flash 10.1 support. Both the X and Incredible have complete flash support today.
