This is a very short test video I made of my niece earlier with the Bionic. Ignore the upside down at the beginning, I was holding it upside down ..learning curve

I dont know if its my laptop, but some youtube videos go black when you go full screen ... that one for example, don't know if its just me or something else.

When you click to go full screen, the screen usually turns black for the first second or 2. That's normal.

Another point....I was at my local Verizon store at 10am to buy a Bionic. There were five of us in line and only three were there to get a Bionic. As I was leaving the store traffic picked up, but here's the question: Why are the lines for an iPhone around the block at model introduction but the Bionic was a walk in and get it deal? Is it because Apple knows how to market? I don't live in a one light town, so where was everyone?

Yea I think its this crappy laptop, I can hear the sound but it stays black, some videos, most will work full screen tho .. its no biggy tho.

Because IPhone is one of a kind, there are many different android phones for people to choose from. Apple loyalist have 1 choice, we have many.

Ordered mine at about 10 am central yesterday, FedEx dropped off around 1:30 pm today. Nice! Good thing I didn't try to go to a store because I got busy at work this morning and wouldn't have had time to leave. I'm going from rooted, ROM'd, OC'd Droid 1 and just like everyone else is saying - this thing is smoking fast - no lag AT ALL, no redraw, just smooth operations like it should be. I'm happy to note that PDANet works just fine, for those of you that tether. Also anyone compaining about the screen has some kind of other agenda. The screen is great and works very well in the sunlight too. I'd gladly take this screen on every phone I ever buy as long as it is good for the battery. No joke. Netflix works perfect, now I have something else to do while in the bathroom ;-)

Now I just have to round up some more cash so I can get a couple of docks.... Oh yeah I had VZW send me some screen protectors with the Bionic. I played with it for about 10 min before I covered it up. Not making the mistake with my OG - let the screen get scratched and THEN decide to put a protector on!!

Phone is almost charged now... in short, this phone is 100% what I expected and I'm totally loving it. I will be OK using this phone for a long time I think.... might not even root. Well, actually I will so I can get the bloatware off.

Went on to Walmart website and they have the Bionic listed at $199 with two year upgrade! Went through the whole checkout process and they offered next day delivery for free. Can't imagine a better deal out there.

I could not find it on Walmart

Can someone explain me to how to order this on Walmart.com and keep my existing data plan? I don't see an option for that. I'm on a family plan with 3 other phones and when I select the same family plan, it wants me to pick what data package I want. I've never ordered a phone on walmart.com cuz I could never figure out how to do it.

Ugh, it's been over 8 hours since I ordered it. They said it MIGHT get to my house tomorrow. I'm gonna cry if it doesn't, as they said it will be Monday if it's not tomorrow.

Call *611 and ask if they can see the order status.

I went to Costco around 3:30 PM, pst and got one of the bundle deals. I was told six were available when store opened and when I got there, there were two left. I walked out with the Bionic and bundle package for $303.

I'll probably do that every 13 minutes tomorrow. It's gonna be a long 8 hours at work tomorrow!

Anyone with the laptop dock have some realword comments on it? It's priced at $199 at my Verizon and he was willing to deal on the car dock and media dock, if he'll deal on the laptop dock as well it could be the trifecta for me. Just looking for the basics as well as what you're planning on using it for. How is the keyboard, the screen, feel of construction, etc. I've been eyeing up tablets, but this may be the combo for me with the 4g speed and no tethering fee......

Any input is welcome!
