Waiting to release until after the 28th?

Get a phone on the 27th keep your unlimited data. Then take the phone back on the 5th tell them that you do not want it and get the incredible. the only thing that you will have to do is pay a 30$ restocking fee

The Verizon bubbas that I talked to in the store told me that any exchange will change the start date on the contract and that I would lose my unlimited. I was planning on doing that strategy with the GIII.

I am going to call Verizon on the 27th and see if I can pre-order the DInc3. If not I will get the Rezound. My thoughts are that for $80, if the Rezound can keep me happy for 6-12 months, the DInc 3 will probably drop in price by more than my 80 bucks.

Let's hope that Verizon will add this new phone to the online list. I noticed this morning that the original Inc was free now. I think they wanted $50 yesterday.

If you sign a new contract before the 28 they can not take away your unlimited data. The phone has nothing to do with your contract. once you sign the contact it is a done deal.

Your right! The in store bubbas are wrong. I just called VZW and the rep said that I can order the Rezound on the 27th, and trade it in within 14 days for the INC 3 ($30 restock fee) and keep my unlimited.

So it begs the question, should I get Best Buy to price match, and then get 30 days to exchange? Do you think I am pressing my luck to align this deal if I go through BB?

Seems like it would work. The only issue you run into is if the DInc3 isnt released within that time. It seems like the July 5th date is gaining more and more traction but I dont trust any dates until I can actually order the phone on Verizon's website. If you're willing to get stuck with the Rezound if the dates don't pan out then this seems like a good plan.

It would be safer to go with BB just because of the 30 days. Let's just hope that the phone comes sooner than later.

Is that $30 restocking fee in addition to another $30 upgrade fee?

I've would like to think that since you already would have paid the fee once they're not gonna make you pay it again but if they try I would just attempt to be polite and asked that it could be waived. Ive heard a lot of people get out of that fee (upgrade fee) just be asking and being persistent about it.
