Bionic pushed back?

[sk102704]

Android Central updated their story. The screen shot was from Sam's Club, not Costco. Don't know if this changes anything

I will flip the $#%& out..... Bought omni 2 to lock my wireless plan and I despise this piece of trash

I'll be interested to see if there are any leaks from the Verizon testers this coming Mon-Wed. I didn't expect much this weekend, but this upcoming week should be interesting - hopefully!

Yeah this is the last full week of July so we're bound to hear something. Moto doesn't have much "summer" left for their Bionic release...

I think a lot of us seek that instant gratification. We want things when we want them, not later. The only real news I've seen on the Bionic release date was something saying it would be released this summer. The rest is rumors we've all scrounged up from here and here. No sense jumping up and down screaming for something that isn't ready. I've waited this long. Whatever my next phone happens to be, and I think its gonna be the Bionic, I want to have as few hassles using it as possible. And just because one store has one roll-out date doesn't mean that is the release date for all stores, does it?

Instant gratification? There is plenty of people holding out on their upgrades for THIS phone. If I wanted instant gratification I could have gotten the Thunderbolt, I have had my upgrade since February.

If its something worth having, than its worth waiting for.

But this news does not mean that it will affect the Verizon Release.. Although I do not think it will be the 4th. I still think that it will be released in Mid to late August!!!

if the bionic is going to be the flagship phone for verizon and due out aug 4, i would think there would be a lot of hyped advertising 10 days before its launch

Yep.

I stepped on my OG Droid 3 weeks ago with a HOCKEY SKATE and now have a horribly cracked screen. I was going to go Droid 3 but heard about the Bionic and I'm not going to get a lesser phone just to get a phone.

Bionic is pretty much pushing "a need" for me because I don't know how much longer the OG Droid is going to hold up.

I fully agree. My Storm2 is basically a paperweight, but I'm holding out as well.

I can honestly say it's a bit dissapointing to see this. Although everyone's correct that we've not received a release date, it's just such a bummer to see things not progressing. Push backs after push backs is just a sad thing. I've had my original droid so long now my case is starting to pop off randomly. 2 years is long enough.

So everyone knows about the twitter page mdb228 and how it is saying it will come out on Aug 4th(if the numbers are meant to be seconds).
I heard someone talking about this being from the Terminator and in Terminator 2 the system(skynet) goes online on Aug. 4th. There was a quote that said the bionic had a virus gained self awareness(joke) and in Terminator 2 the robot gains self awarness. Also Terminator 2 has a lot of T- numbers(idk what they mean) but the page said T minus 1,166,400(focus on the t minus).

Any thoughts b/c I may be completely wrong on everything?

I think we've agreed the twitter page is a hoax.

The mind often sees what it wants to see.

True, I really hate how Motorola doesn't tell us ****, do they want to lose customers? These delays are also really annoying, if this phone comes past mid-september I am going to wait for the Dinara or iphone 5.

T-Minus has NOTHING to do with the Terminator series. Obviously it's been used for a long time with the "T" meaning "time" so it's essentially Time Minus, a countdown method.

And Skynet became self-aware July 25, 2004 in T3.

Don't look too hard into it.

 

[Oxymoron]

LOL @ a lot of T-numbers, and focus on the t-minus :-D
