I'm still waiting to see the employee price on this phone, tbolt/incred have both been cheaper.

I'm worried ill be waiting too long for the galaxy2.
 
Don't know if you guys saw this on Droid Life.

My fascinate had a low quadrant too as stock, but in real world use was pretty decent but there was some small lag. Expect this phone to be a bit laggy as stock compared to TB. Better battery life a def plus though. I am liking this phone more everyday. But they cheaped out on the ram on this phone once again. And why not wait for a dual core phone?
 
I've been watching some of the Charge giveaway's - https://www.chargelanding.com/ - and it looks like 13 of 16 have been given out. I expect this means it'll be any time now when they should go on sale (maybe tomorrow) - the last 3 should be given away in a few hours from now.
 
Get from amazon wireless they probably will sell for a penny a month or two after release.

Swyped from the best phone in verizon's line up.

Nope not tomorrow. Thursday is the soonest possible day. The comp ends tomm so the last three will be given out then. I dont see why Thursday wont happen especially if the Revolution comes out next week, I dont think Verizon will release 2 4G phones on the same day.
 
When you factor on the mandatory extended battery for the Tbolt, the price is more or less a push. I'm assuming my price for this will be 249.99 as the Tbolt is 199.99 and the INC2 was 149.99 at release.
 
I really like most of the things about the Droid Charge. However, the low quadrant score gives me pause. It is lower than the DroidX that came out last July! Is it really going to matter in the real world? Hmmm...

Do I wait for the bionic or not?
 
Actually, my original Droid (running LGB 2.3.4 overclocked to 1.1Ghz) has a higher quadrant. I'm assuming the Droid Charge will perform better in real world situations. Heck it is faster than the DroidX that would be good enough.
 
I certainly wouldn't decide on a phone based on quadrant scores. While it is nice to have the comparison chart of other devices that quadrant provides, it has been proven numerous times that the quadrant benchmark means nothing. Often benchmarks in general don't translate into real world performance.
 
Disregard my last...

It appears as though the site web store went down briefly to REMOVE the 49.99 DroidX special it had up previously...
