Galaxy Note 2 waiting Lounge

[bsweetness]

Droid 3 does have a SIM but not micro like the Note takes.

And the SIM in the Droid 3 is only for international GSM roaming. It's not for LTE, and so the Verizon line isn't tied to it for activation purposes. So, even if it was the micro size, it still wouldn't work to activate and use the Note 2.

It made me buy a new sim when I bought the phone...it said that mine wasn't compatible. Hopefully it comes with it or I will be visiting a Verizon store immediately.

My phone still says it is in Memphis :frown:

Mine said departed Memphis lol

The lack of earbuds is fine by me. They'd never get used anyway. As for the SIM, I remember that when I went through the pre-order process online, I was asked if I wanted a new SIM card. I declined since I'll just be using the one from my S3.

I looked for the new sim option when ordering but did not see it. I needed a sim for my S3 that I am giving the wife. No big deal. I have connections and besides....they are free.

It sucks that it doesn't come with earbuds but oh well.

Sim cards are free?? It charged me like $30 for a new one when I bought my phone. I will have to look into this...

I know they are free in official verizon stores but authorized retailers can charge anything they want

I'm still rocking the ear buds from my Rezound so I will be using those until I get those logitech bluetooth headphones (I don't really want to be seen holding this thing to my head haha)

My earbuds crapped out about 2 weeks ago and I was waiting to see if verizon was gonna let us have the samsung ones. After verizon I have to go find some new ones.

As drew96dawg said, they're free at corporate Verizon stores. Authorized retailers tend to charge for them. I always make sure I only go to corporate stores for a variety of reasons, including this one.

I bought off the verizon store online so I'm not sure why I was charged.

After checking my confirmation email, the $30 charge is an "Upgrade Fee." What the hell is that?!

It's the fee Verizon charges when an existing customer signs a new contract and gets a new phone as an upgrade. They started charging that back at the end of April.

Ain't that some shiz. Didn't know about that. I'm sure Verizon has a very good reason to charge even more from their customers.

That's the fee verizon charges people to take their money
