While I don't want to throw cold water on all these "happy" posts, but why hasn't verizon made any announcement? I'm not familiar with the ins and outs of the marketing/advertisements on new cell phones, but wouldn't you think big red would've said something by now? I'm just curious with a dash skepticism :blink:

the short answer: They are poop heads.
 
Happy to hear this for everyone. I still have a couple more months before I can upgrade, but will look forward to hearing the fun you all will be having with this exciting new phone. Enjoy!!!dancedroid

One reason I can think of is it's not a Droid phone, what Verizon strongly promotes as it is their line of phones. It doesn't have the red/black theme going on and only has 2 added Verizon apps. Also considering this phone will make its way to other carriers and go under the same name, it's not exactly an exclusive.
Another reason I can think of is they want to make sure they have a good amount in stock?
 
Just called my local Verizon Store, guy said he is waiting for the release date too and hasn't heard a thing about it but I live in New Hampshire, we are the last to hear about everything. I just found out that the Cold War is over?????

Guess you didn't try to get your name on the hold list huh?
 
I finally cracked the code and figured out a release date! :dancedroid: What ever day it is, the release date is about a week away, never less than 3 days which is the case now! :)

Swyped and sent through the interwebz directly to you from somewhere and some device that doesn't concern you!

And never more than how ever many days are left in the current year?

How far to the nearest store way up there?! Over the hills and through the woods comes to mind? :p

Ditto. Not to poop in all of your salads, but you're all taking work off on a rumor? We haven't even gotten official word from the mothership...
