I put in the correct order number but the system says there is a problem. When I just called the rep, he said the order went through 100%, no problem. Guess Verizon's automated checking system is screwed up. Wonder what they pay programmers. Maybe they have an Apple mole in their employ!!!!
Chief... nice to see you here. What are doing with your Gnex? Mine is going to my fiancee. Ordered my pebble blue 32 at 7:00am est.
If you return your old phone you get 30 bucks, wipes out the upgrade fee. That is what he was telling you.
Alexander,
Thanks for the info on this. Is this just the typical "please recycle your old phone" packaging they ship out with all of their phone orders??
Do I have to send back my current phone to get the $30 off or can it be an old Verizon phone I have?
I would much rather send back my crappy feature phone that I didnt send in when I bought my Droid X, than send in my nice Droid X. It would be nice to have a smart phone back-up just in case.....
Thanks
I had the 32 GB ordered, and changed it later on to the 16 GB. This phone is going to have an sd card slot, which I was unaware of when first ordering (seeing 32 Gb and 16 GB models is decieving, I thought it was like the iPhone with limited storage). So, I'm going to put an old 16 GB card into my Thunderbolt and sell it on CL for whatever I can get, and use the 32 GB card from my Thunderbolt in my GS3. Saved a cool $56!!!
I don't think that much on board storage is necessary. Most of us are coming from phones with pathetic internal storage. The D1 only has 256 MB!! The Thunderbolt has 8 GB, and I've never had a problem. Those who already ordered the 32 GB might want to reconsider. To each his own, I suppose..
Just got an email from BB. It stated my phone (16gb) as been reserved and then has a price of $699.99. Is that the normal retail price for a 16gb?
Anyone else who preordered through BB get this?
Am I the only one that ordered a white phone? I have to learn how to clean this thing.
S3 is already rootable. See all things root thread.Most people ordered the 32 because the new OS does not support saving apps to the SD card, they will all be stalled on the phone. So after Verizon installs all there bloat apps your probably only looking at 10 gigs. The only way to fix that is rooting your phone. Since we don't know how long this will take most of us are playing it safe and going with 32gigs.

It's $599 for 16GB on Verizon's site... why would BB be more expensive? If anything I would have expected the opposite?

I would never go back to 16 GB. As you said, to each their own.
I have all 6 Star Wars movies on my Nexus (sometimes other movies), all my Google Music offline, numerous HD pix and vids I've shot with this thing, and have about 8GB left. 16GB would have been packed long ago.
I'm glad the 16GB version works well for you... for others, it's just not enough. And while the D1 did only have 256MB, that was RAM, not STORAGE. It did support up to a 32GB microSD card (which I used).
That is due to an agreement for posted price for BB to be a major channel partner for VZW phones. Not sure about the other carriers. Due to BB policy for price match, they will match VZW price at purchase, if local VZW has it in stock.
