Well, since the availability of the iPhone is uncertain at this point and I need a phone now. I ordered an HTC Incredible through Verizon with a one year contract. I'm hoping that by the time my contract expires that the CDMA iPhone will be available on VZW's network. :D

I was just joking about the button. I think Verizon having good phones like the HTC Incredible makes the market more competitive, and Verizon getting the iPhone is only going to do it more... I'm happy about this, as it will probably create a battle between AT&T and Verizon for "who has the cheapest data plans with the most usage available." Obviously Verizon has the edge right now, as they still have their "unlimited" 5GB plan, whereas AT&T has dropped theirs and only has the 250MB/$15 or 2GB/$25 plans. AT&T knows they can do whatever the hell they want with the data plans right now and also charge whatever they want for the iPhone because they're the only carrier for it. When Verizon gets it the prices are gonna drop like mad. AT&T is going to have to fight to keep its customers, and lowering prices on data plans and upgrades to new iPhones will be their only shot at that. If they don't they will fail. I'm stuck with AT&T as I'm on my dad's family plan, so if this all goes down I'm hoping AT&T gets their heads out of their asses and lowers the prices. If they don't, I will see everyone jump ship while I have to remain with AT&T, unless my dad switches to Verizon, of course...

Looks pretty awesome and I wouldn't mind having one, but I don't want AT&T. For now I'm waiting for some sweet (hopefully) Android phones coming out in the next few months for Verizon. Congrats though Chris, I'm pretty jealous. Why didn't you go for the 32gb though?

The Droid X will be out in July and it looks alot more impressive than the Iphone.

Cool stuff. Hope this lowers the price of paying for the data plan for my iPhone when I get it. :lol:

Like I said, AT&T needs to get their heads out of their asses...

Apparently verizon is thinking about starting a tiered data plan. I.E. 25$ for this much, 15$ for this much..and no more "unlimited".
I'm glad I'm not hooked on my smart phone.

Yep, now that AT&T has done it others are to follow...

Looks like that new antenna was a great idea.

Reading through it seems to be a bug that Apple will fix soon. People were still able to place calls it looks like. Either way, I'm leaving now to go get mine!

YEEEAAAAHHH SUCKAS!!!

I got it. Had to call in and tell work I'd be an hour late, which the boss totally understood (he wants an iPhone so bad, but has Sprint). It took 7 hours of waiting in this:

[img]http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p40/INCUBUSRATM/Picture.jpg[/img]

The line was actually twice as long as you see in the picture, because it went all the way around the corner and into another corridor that was just as long. I started all the way at the beginning of that corridor. There were two lines, one for reservations and the other for people who were just there to see if they could get one. After 7 hours I was finally at the front, next to go into the store. I asked the guy beside me in the other line how long he had been there... he said 4AM, three hours more than me. They were definitely getting the reserved people taken care of first, as they should've. I was only in the store for about 3-4 minutes. They verified my account, had me sign with my finger the new contract on their nifty little device, swiped my card on the nifty little device (kinda like an iPhone, but made for checking people out), and then hooked up my iPhone to one of the demo Macs and I was good to go. I love this phone. It is pure awesomeness. I'm currently loading apps onto it, then I gotta do all my contacts. This phone will bring much joy in the future. That I know for sure. Was it worth the 7 hour wait? Yes. It was exhausting, but I got to meet cool people and it actually wasn't that bad. Starbucks from upstairs was handing out free iced lattes and the girl in front of me bought like 8 pretzels from one of the shops and handed them out to everyone around her in line, so I got one! It was the only food I've had today, lol. I don't think I'd do it again, but hey, it spiced up my boring life...

EDIT: PhotoScatter is an awesome app! How I got that pic onto Photobucket from my phone.

Congrats man, sounds pretty crazy. At least you got an iPhone, free pretzel and coffee, lol. Don't forget, Angry Birds, it's only $0.99 for the whole game and well worth it.

Yeah I don't ever wanna wait in a line like that again. Next time I'd rather just wait a couple extra weeks for it to be delivered to my house. The free coffee and pretzel were the shit. I think I'm gonna have to go back and actually pay for it... lol. Although, I think my local mall in Murfreesboro has a Starbucks and some kind of pretzel place as well... Wetzel's, I believe. Anyway. Yes, already downloaded ze Angry Birds. Those silly angry birds. :lol:

The doctor I work with brought his to work today. He was taking videos and photos left and right. Super clear screen, beautiful design. We did the Facetime thing with another guy who got his too, and it was freaking sweet!
I want to get it after all the bugs are fixed and I can update my cell plan.

is it wrong that i immediately focused on the two girls near the top right of the pic? haha!!

to be honest chris, that sounded kinda like fun...although, 7 hours is a bit much....

if i lived around you, i'd be walking down the line taking to go orders from people and charging like 1-2 bucks.....i think i'd probably make a quick 100 dollars...haha!

Yeah, it was kinda fun really...

DUDE, there was this one guy with me who got way to the front of the line cause he gave the kid $100 for his spot. The kid came back to us to take the guy's spot beside me but he said, "Dude, I'm just here with my mom. I got $100 just for standing in line. I'm going home and leaving my mom here to wait by herself in this mess." Several people were trying to sell spots or pay someone to get further ahead... Security finally stopped it.
