Maybe the theory about it being location dependent is right. It obviously isn't first-come, first-served since droidhero filed his claim about a week after me but got his replacement first. I don't know what else it could be.
Probably was location dependent, as I called today and was informed that it will be at my house tomorrow.This exact scenario happened to me, same dates and everything. Still no change on the backorder status. Whats up with that, if you got yours?droidhero, when did you first file your claim? My Droid suffered water damage on Thanksgiving and I filed a claim with Asurion last Friday. I've checked the Web site and/or called everyday since then (just got off the phone with them right now) and everytime I am told it's still on backorder. How long did you have to wait before you got it?
Found this thread and thought it was interesting and I would weigh in.
First off, sorry to the original poster who lost/had their phone stolen and glad they were able to get their phone in time as they needed it.
Secondly, is anyone here familiar with "Lookout Mobile Security" (formerly flexilis, www.mylookout.com)? That's what I have on my phone and I love it. I don't think the virus scanning is necessary, but the data backup and lost/stolen device locator is super nice. It even allows you to make your phone "scream" from the web if you've misplaced it in the house. I know there are several like apps out there and people have their preferences, but if you don't have a like app on your phone, I highly recommend this one for the missing device locator alone (full disclosure: I'm nothing more than a satisfied customer and am not affiliated with the app or company at all ).
Lastly, along the lines of the insurance discussion, I got my phone through the pre-order at Best Buy so that I could have it the first day and I wouldn't have to deal with a mail-in rebate. I got the insurance that they offered, which was $100 deductible (my Droid is well worth it) and seemed to be a great deal (as much as any insurance can be a "great deal"). Just curious if anyone else went this route....
I've been using Lookout for about a week now and like it as a layer of virus/malware protection and backup. However, I've never had any success in getting their website (after I login using my credentials) to locate my phone on a map. Does this working for you?
I haven't heard of this program. But definately something I wanna hear more about. Having a back up of your phone would have been great in my case. And the manual locator from the computer would be a great feature.
Is this program a paid app in the marketplace?
