Just got word that my droid has been delivered to my home address(kicking myself for not having it sent to work). And I am stuck here for 4 more hours, with 2 on top of that till I am home. So MAYBE by 7 I'll get to check it out.

Would leave early, but my GF and I carpool and I don't think she would appreciate me leaving her here too much....

Good news Droid is here! :icon_ banana:

Bad news, is I need to wait several hours :mad:

Rule of thumb. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS have it sent to where you work!! Guarenteed delivery and usally more prompt than home deliveries.

Ah well, good news is I finally got the case I wanted, found it on accessorygeeks for 18.99 (the standard verizon case/clip). So ordered that.

Can't wait to get some apps on the droid, next step is I need to swap the phone number on my current verizon phone to the droid and the droid to the other phone. Long story short, I was several months from upgrading so I decided my son needed a phone :) so he gets my old phone and I get the droid.

Got to love loopholes, even if they cost :)

That's funny. I did the same thing: 2 of my kids were due so I got the Droid and a free Eris. Needless to say, 1 of my kids did not get a new phone.
:)

that makes me giggle

They actually left it at your house. Used to verizon required a signature so fed-ex would just leave you a note on the door saying you can pick it up yourself. I have stuff sent to my office now.

I think I would be using my lunch time to run home and get that bad boy. I am surprised that they delivered it without a signature. All my phones (including the two Droids in my family) came signature required.

I left a note on my door for FedEx to leave it :)

I work 25 miles north of where I live, so running home isn't feasible, and as I said, not coming back would = negative GF points which = less droid time :) not a good start to the droid addiction!

Yeah my son was super excited to get his first cell phone, till he put 2 and 2 together and realized I used him as my way to get my droid :)

He learned a lesson in collateral damage ;)
