Ok so heres the story thus far...
I've been torn between the Droid X and the Fascinate for a few weeks now. Ive had a string of "issues" with the X since August (i.e: few replacment phones). I went on tue and picked up my replacement X. After reading this forum I understand there are some issues with the Fascinate such as gps/reception and Bing (wtf Verizon) but the hackability of the phone looks more and more appealing to me. But you can never tell how you will like a phone unless you use it in the real world. So to not create a wall of text I'll endevor to get to the point.
Today I had the idea to activate a second line (well really my 4th wife has 2 lines herself) and talked to a Vzw sales person on the phone and they are sending me a Fascinate for 99 bucks! Now I get to experiment with the device and have the option of returning it for the 30 day worry free if it dosent work out. I dont plan on hacking it unless I decide to keep it. I just want to get some real world experiance with it. I know no matter what I keep, the X or the SF I am going to be hit with a $35 restock. Im ok with since i consider it renting the phone for a month.
Has anyone else ever done this or am I crazy and going to extreams to make sure im happy with my new device? Also if anyone has done this were they able to cancel the line as long as its in the 30 days WFG?
My wife is going to kill me lol.
