Telegraph? Telegraph? That new fandangoed 'lectricity just ain't safe. Mark my words, gone come Spring, mark'em.
I have a stable of Ponies and some of the finest bareback riders this side 'a Wichita!

Looks like the D4 might be closer to prime time than most anticipated:

Motorola DROID 4 Pops Up in Variety of Verizon Systems, How Close are We to a Release? – Droid Life: A Droid Community Blog

SO EXCITED FOR THIS

I guess this would be aimed at all the people that thought Verizon would drop and LTE D3.

And we thought the Bionic people were mad abut the Razr coming out to fast... I don't want to think about the D3 people's response. Occupy wallstreet is nothing compared with the soon coming occupy Verizon and Moto riots...

I can't believe people found the D3 worth buying in the first place. Without 4G it really was quite a silly release IMHO. The D4 is going to be SICK!

 

[jaycemiskel]

I'm honestly not mad. The D3 is a good device but I wondered why they didn't put that stuff in when it was first released. I actually was going to pass on it due to that but my wife broke her phone and there was no 4g in my area so I got it and gave her my old phone. I'm definitely getting the Nexus when it comes out though. Moto hasn't made me too happy lately and I've always wanted a Nexus so I'm done with moto.

Im not done with moto, i truly love the brand name.. i love their hardware look and durability. I grew up around looking at moto stuff all day whether it be the fire radio my dad always had with him or his cool thin Moto flip phone which was made of metal... It was indestructable.So hardware is great But They truly need to work on their software though. Moto is great at security such as encrption but horrible with the UI overlay. What company gets a backlash of consumers hating a specific aspect of something such as blur and just keeps going with it. Like Blur seriously is hated, yet somehow Moto keeps on truckin with it...even going as far as just getting rid of the name becuase its disliked which clearly shows they know it is but yet their is no one listening, Thats what i call a load of doodoo. Im not off of Moto, but they need to straighten up or i wont buy their device. Im voting with my wallet and nexus it is. Im getting my 5 member family away from Blur as well. Its not good IMO. Moto can do its thing while i do mine.

Did this already get posted:

I think I'm going to add the Edge to a top-post for now... it seems to fall in-line with what this thread is about...

I hope it comes to Verizon. Damn shame if it doesn't.

Its rumored names are Droid Incredible HD, Droid Incredible 4G, HTC Lust and HTC Fantastic Four. This is of course completely made up... but I figured I would get the ball rolling.

 

[DF Smod]

I'm looking forward to the Motorola Droid Nexus, even though it hasn't been rumored yet it's inevitable

I wonder if I posted this on the top post if we could get some rumors going -- either on this site or on others hahaha.

Its funny, i just want the nexus. That is a cool phone but im so excited at the aspect of having a new device like my D1 on VZ. I never thought i would see a vanilla device again after they skinned all phones after D1. Now my upgrade to me is a way better D1. The htc device is sweet, but ill wait for the next hopefully quad core nexus. :biggrin: every phone between that is just me observing things. Im very cautious with what devices i actually get. I have been on this site every day for the past year and a half, could have upgraded my phone months ago but haven't. By then i bet the quad cor thing will be a lot more refined, Hopefully a lot more refined then the dual cores as of now. And better lte chips.

Two things:

And

I was talking with another member the other day and he mentioned that he had been sitting on his upgrade for at least half of the year and noticed his "plan/contact expires on the 19th". Does this just imply when you technically go from month to month on the contract or does your plan actually expire?
