I just got the droid X and I was messing around with the game "need for speed" and then wanted to go back to the main menu and the screen popped up would like to purchase this game. i hit X. then i tells me to hit the right button (the check mark) to return to the main menu. So i did, then i says thank you for purchasing need for speed.[gosh darn it] what a horrible way to scheme you into buying something. a simple press of a check mark. unbelievable. what should i do? Do i get my money back if a call verizon?

If it was a purchase made through the Android Market you have 24 hours to receive a refund.

Umm. I dono much about this cause im on a Droid1 and only use the market, but how did it just say thank you for buying the game without and checkout page. Even when buying in the market theres a page that pops up with all the cost info...

If I recall correctly, Verizon cannot give you a refund for this, it has to be done through EA. And EA won't do it. However, it should have given you a couple confirmations before it actually finalized the purchase.
