Waiting on my Revolultion

[AstroBoy]

So after months of research, waiting, research, waiting, hanging out on DroidDroums.net I finally ordered my replacement for the BB Storm II.

I went with the LG Revolution.

A few things convinced me to go this route.

It appears to have less issues than the TB.
Better build quality than the Charge
it is for all intents and purposes the same phone as the TB with some minor feature changes (and no gorillia glass ). It does not have the SVDO over 3G that the TB has, but as I live in a very heavily saturated 4G market i don't see that as a major issue.

It has an HDMI out that the TB lacks. I have a new pseudo grandson and I know I'll be taking pics and video of him. It will be nice to see on the Big screen TV.

I ordered from VZW online and it cost just $149. I'd have like it for less but that is not a bad price.

It is coming to my office next day air so I should have it tomorrow. This gives me the weekend to play with it and see how much I like it.

Does anyone know of any Gingerbread ROMS for this? I'd love to put one on. I think the latest phone should have the latest version of the OS.

There is almost zero developer support for this phone.
One of the reasons I'm returning it.

It was $199 plus I had a $50.00 Customer loyalty discount.

I also get 20% discount off service and accessories via my employer.

I've noticed that. It seems strange since it comes with an unlocked bootloader. You would think devs would jump on this one.

Hasn't even been a week...give it some time. I heard a recovery is being worked on. Need that first...

Tell us what you think of the screen. I think it's not as good as as the tb screen.
