Well, that explains why we're getting absolutely nothing from Verizon until the very last minute.

Had my case delivered last week. Thinking of returning it..
What are we basing Thursday off of again? He said that she heard that a rep said?

My case is "On truck. Out for delivery."

Kinda sad that I'm excited over a case...:blink:

I've had my screen protector ordered, not going with a case though.

Just hope I get to use it...ever.

Brave man. May your kung fu grip be strong always.

Thursday's are also the usual day of the week that Verizon has "typically" released phones on.

I don't see how that can delay the phone though. Its just a app. It doesn't really have anything with launching the phone.

I agree. And VZW doesn't even have an app yet. In fact, I seriously doubt this is the reason as all I've heard says that ISIS is a good 6-9 months out before even having a viable product. If they want to keep wallet off for "security" concerns it can't be monopolistic as they don't even have a competing product as yet.

Can't see them trying to stop the competition so long before they have a competing product. Makes no sense.

What good is that going to do when everyone will say "That is easily faked"

My comment earlier wasn't about wanting to see proof, I would just rather someone preface "I won't come out Thursday" with whether they were told that or they assume that, if they say they were told by such and such from within VZW, that is good enough for me and holds a lot more water than it being something they assume from their own observations.

I wasnt saying right, wrong or defending anyone. Just thought I might have missed something.

We're still waiting for unknowledgable consumers to end the Razr rush.

Why must Verizons actions center around profit? It's just unfair

I think the legal implications of releasing a phone with an app withheld for competitive reasons is far worse than with holding the launch of the phone because of the issue. Whether ISIS is on the market yet or not, if VZW doesn't allow it on the device and Google claims it is to prevent competition, it is a breach as soon as the device hits the market. On the flip side if they allow the app on the device "for now" pending the results of the legal battle, I assume it would make it that much easier to put it back on the device in the future if/when VZW actually pulls it. Additionally, the 98% of the public that has no idea what is going on while have a substantially "louder" opinion about an app that they had and liked but disappeared than one they never even knew they were missing out on.

Does anyone?

Yep....12/15....from

Grandpa's Plumber's Daughter's Boyfriend's Friend knows a VZW rep.

Seriously, straight from the horses mouth! What better source do you need?

I'm sorry, was still stuck in my line of thought from my earlier post and wanted to clarify... I don't know if any of the communications have been made public yet as I'm 99% of them were personal e-mails from Corp to regional managers and scarce enough to find the leak if it were to be posted publicly.
