Anybody else have to wait?

[Les Common]

I'm getting my Droid through work, and work gets them delivered on Monday.

So I get to read all the fun you guys are having, camping out, listening for camera clicks, trying to play .wavs and all. But no hands on until Monday.

Keep the discussions going- very informative to watch folks questions and reactions. Good forum. I'm keeping an "app to check out" spreadsheet. 24 and counting.

I can't wait! But I must.

Oh well.

A few more nights with the Voyager.

I have to wait because my Every 2 doesn't register until February... hopefully by then all the kinks have been worked out and maybe... just maybe the Droid might be cheaper?

Waiting until Monday here too. I was really hoping that overnight meant overnight, but it doesn't. According to FedEx tracking, my phone is about 100 miles away right now.

i have to wait til december 16th so i can use my annual upgrade. i was playing with the phone for like an hour and didnt want to let it go.

i was begging them to let me upgrade early lol

I'm waiting until Monday right along with you. It's frustrating, especially since my boss decided he couldn't wait and bought an Eris this morning. I want my new phone! The Eris is very cool, btw.

I do feel your pain, I was hoping it would come today but after talking to our Verizon rep, I'll get it Monday.

 

[Forsakenfire]

I put in a free overnight promo code, so I'll get mine tomorrow.

I put in a free overnight promo code, so I'll get mine tomorrow.

i did too, however it still means monday. I'm going to try to pick it up where ever it lands tomorrow.

I have to wait until Monday since I get paid today. I've gone two and half years with a Samsung Hue, so I guess I can wait a couple more days. It's hard to wait, though. Last time I had a smartphone was the Kyocera 7135. I'm on Alltel, which is now Verizon, so I wonder if I can work out any NE2 deals or existing customer discounts? It won't hurt to ask.

I used the code too. However, their free overnight doesn't include Saturday delivery. It's one business day. Not one normal day. It would have been nice if they had stated that up front. I didn't find out for sure until they emailed me my FedEx tracking number and went to track it. It's Monday.

I was also a little annoyed with the site given that I was logged into My Verizon to do the upgrade, and having the phone shipped to my billing address, and using the CC number stored in My Verizon that I use for auto-pay, which also has the same billing address and they still made me enter the CVN and go through Verified by Visa to order.

Of course, if I had known I wouldn't get it until Monday, I would have had them ship it to work. Now I have to work from home on Monday until the package arrives. I hope it arrives early but they say it could be as late as 3pm.

Getting mine on Monday as well. Currently the little guy`s in Memphis.
@ BeachBoy: I was on Alltel also and used my $50 NE2 deal and got it for $150 plus tax.

 

[AdamDroid]

I am calling fedex to see if i can drive and pick mine up tomorrow some where. mine currently is only 5hrs away

 

[iPhoneMilk]

I ordered mine over the phone with AWESOME deals, and it's arriving tomorrow by noon

 

[iceyspoons]

ordered mine online last night, said it was picked up about 50 miles away from me at 9 this morning...best case scenario it shows up late today, worst case i get it on monday. but my roommate bought his at a verizon store today and will likely be making me jealous all weekend.

How do you know it doesn't mean overnight? FedEx tracking on mine says "Estimated delivery: Nov 9", but I expect that is due to the estimation not counting on Saturday delivery. I assume many business routes don't run. I am still holding out that mine shows up tomorrow!

fedex doesnt deliver on saturdays last time i checked

fedex doesnt deliver on saturdays last time i checked

they do, you just have to select saturday delivery, which i doubt verizon did. but hey, we can always hold out hope...

fedex doesnt deliver on saturdays last time i checked

FedEx Services - FedEx Products and Services - FedEx Services Tracking at FedEx.com -> Saturday delivery:

FedEx Home Delivery

 

[Chet]

If it makes it to my city I'll go to the FedEx place and try and pick it up... if it doesn't show up at my door that is.

 

[HardHat]

I have to wait, BUT its OK, because I am in Iraq right now with the US Army.

I get home next week sometime (things always change in the army), and my droid will be there when I arrive.

I can't wait. I have been a blackberry user ever since my BB 7250 on verizon for work, and am fed up with the circa 2003 operating system. I really home and am pretty sure that android is the OS for me.

Were you able to do that in-store? If so, did you have to deal with the mail-in rebate? I would rather just go to the Verizon store to get it, but will go to Best Buy if I have to deal with the MIR. Thanks

 

[andrewdoane]

You guys are ahead of me, I didn't know about any promo code so I will probably get mine Tuesday. Jeez, by that time the phone will probably be obsolete and I'll be waiting around on the Droid2 forum

 

[Froid]

I'm having to wait until Wednesday for my NE2. I went by a played with one this morning and LOVED it. Waiting is killing me, especially since my buddy called earlier from his new Droid.

 

[Spotmark]

I've got to wait until Monday, too. Fortunately, I'm having it delivered to work, so I can start playing with it before I get home. There won't be much work getting done once it arrives.

 

[pknyo]

@ Beachboy I just used the upgrade your phone section MyVerizon. The $50 was automatically taken off. Best Buy will not do this for you. So I just decided to wait until Monday to have it. After I order however I saw this and was kinda upset.PSA: Sears charging $50 less for new DROID activations than Verizon
