I'm just glad that you're actually using Android now, so that when you tell us how awesome it is you have something to back it up.

not gonna lie tom, i love my x. its like being a dog, and seeing black and white, and suddenly, you can see colour.

now, ive used android phones before, my friends had em. so i was familiar. but yeah, i did jump on that bandwagon without using it on a daily basis. so ill give ya that.

verizon said i have to turn in my x on the 13th, and the t-bolt is available on the 14th. he said the x was a great phone, but to get the t-bolt for the same monies... hed make that switch too. he said he got a hands on with the t-bolt today and loved it.

oh i know you are. but im manning up and admitting what you said is correct.

i do love my X. i might not even go with the t-bolt. i just wanted to see what i could do. the only think i dont like about my X is i cant make something into a text alert. and text alerts and emails are the same. and facebook doesnt make a sound. i DO miss that about my storm. but thats it.

I'm buying a used X in the next couple of weeks. I want a newer phone than my Droid OG and I'm not sold on getting one of the soon-to-be-launched new devices. I'm gonna wait it out until a bunch of the new devices are actually out before I make my decision.

I think most Lg phones are like that.... they always have some problem. All of the older models really didnt have a problem but the newer ones do.

That sucks. My phone had a weak battery. Then, I dropped the phone after a fall. Now, it will not power on.

does anyone know when the Thunderbolt is actually getting released? All the ads I see only say "Coming Soon" and I'm getting impatient!

not clear. they found some small issues with the phone, and they are working on correcting them before they ship them out.

im also a little alarmed at the pricing of the t-bolt. it was supposed to be 249.99 but now its 299.99. theres no 100 dollar off rebate in those prices either.

Ouch that's expensive!

So, my parents went in last Friday to pre-order my phone. The AT&T guy said there would be a $100 rebate, thus making the phone $99. Well, we go to the store Tuesday and he said there would either be the mail-in-rebate or there would be an outright $100 off (like happened to some customers). My step-dad had to leave and when I was finally all set and ready to go, I didn't get a rebate form. I asked the rep about it and he was a little shady about it and said my parents already had it, which I knew was bullshit because they said they needed it. I'm not sure if they have inquired about it, but I think the guy lied to my parents.

AT&T was supposed to send us 2 $50 rebates on our phones. They were never mailed, and the only option they gave was a bunch of annoying shit that I chose not to do. Looks like this is standard procedure with these fuckers.

I'm switching from AT&T, but not because of service or shady business, but their pricing just blows.

I've seriously never had any of the issues you guys talk about. I got my rebates on my phones in a timely manner, didn't really drop calls, and had a couple phones replaced without having to spend a penny (and I didn't have insurance on them).

Verizon CEO Dan Mead hints that the next iPhone will run on their LTE network, and that iPhone sales very strong despite reports of short lines.

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142 ... 20296.html

Quote:
Verizon first offered pre-orders of the phone to existing customers on Feb. 3, and then began selling it in stores one week later. Mr. Mead said the company staggered the launch of the Apple Inc. device in phases so that customers would have a smooth purchasing experience. "It was a conscious decision to spread the launch over three phases," said Mr. Mead.

Mr. Mead said more than 60% of iPhone sales occurred online. That heavy activity online contributed to short lines on launch day, which were noted by many news outlets. "If we had not done online, you would have seen a much different flow in the pictures," he said. In a few days, the company will double the number of stores that sell the iPhone, going from 4,000 to 8,000.


Quote:
"You'll see more coming from Apple on LTE," he said. "They understand the value proposition of LTE and I feel very confident that they are going to be a part of it."

A little editorial freedom there, Adam?

He didn't imply the next iPhone will run on LTE.

Of course he didn't. You know how pissed Apple would be if he said anything more direct than that?
