Thats what I want to know. How's the battery life? I saw it and its nice but I'm still wondering about the price tiering and will my plan change drastically per month? Plus, right now 4G is not in my area so will the phone work as well on 3G?
Crap. You guys are making me want to go to the Verizon store at lunchtime. But I'm holding out for reviews, especially battery life.

Yeah I just got home from picking mine up! The 4G is amazing and the phone is absolutely gorgeous! Huge difference coming from my D1, only downside I have had so far is that it didn't come fully charged! lol I love this phone to death so far and cannot wait for it to finish charging. Got mine for $199.99! $216 out the door!

Lithium batteries are produced and shipped at 40% charge, as that is the proper charge for the longest storage life of the battery without degradation. A 100% charged Li battery loses 20% of its life every year at room temperature, while it only loses 4% per year at 40% charge. Since the battery might have been manufactured months before being installed in the product, all Li batteries are shipped at 40% charge and kept that way in the product until the user fully charges it for the first time.


So should we let it fully discharge before attempting to fully charge it the first time or it doesnt matter?

Love this phone! HTC sense 4G and a bigger screen make this an awesome upgrade from the d1

Mace,

I'll be upgrading from the D1 as well. Worth the upgrade so far?? I found through out time, that I don't really use the physical QWERTY keyboard too much so it think I'll be fine on that issue.

Picked mine up as soon as the store opened up. Took awhile to activate the sim card and phone though, maybe because so many people were activating at the same time... who knows or just first time so many sims had been activated. I like the included keyboard, sense ui is okay but loading launcherpro on it now. Just waiting 30 min to move all my data from my OG Droid to the new 32 gig microSD. The stand is nice, and got the car dock. Will wait to see whether i get the home dock or not, the stand should be fine for my bedside clock. Oh, has anyone tried to do google video chat on it yet???

been a hour and a half ,,still not activated,,driving me nuts looking at it
