I am so glad now that i decided to grab the M8, I have the s5 on preorder but my wife will be carrying that now. This is the first Verizon device that has been fully unlocked in quite sometime. From what i understand the device has holes everywhere and was pretty easy for devs to hack. That is not necessarily a good thing, but atleast HTC made it plenty easy for the dev community to get S-off and unlocked bootloader.

I'm sure they will lock it up pretty quick. But good news for early adopters!
