Date you ordered and received the phone vs. "will ship by" date

Well gosh there was some flirting in here last night wasn't there? :)
what did i miss?????

LOL. That's what 3AM will do to you :D
:D:D

About 5 years ago, I started using a PC-based DVR system called SageTV. At some point in there, they added the capability of playing a ripped DVD from storage, so I built a massive storage box, and ripped all our DVD's (we have a wall full, lol). They've since added Bluray, which are HUGE, so I've started doing those as well :D. I just checked the system, and it shows my library content would take 72 days, 20 hours and 34 minutes to play start to finish without repeats, lol. I also have about 1.5tb of 'video' storage used (stuff recorded with the capture cards in the PC), adding another 29 days 14hrs and 17 minutes.. Yes, we're TV addicts... I also happen to be a drive space addict, lol (the system is down to about 350gb free, so I'll need to be ordering a couple 1tb drives here soon)...

This picture of my server is an older one, I've since added another 5-in-3 housing to it, and have 2 slots left open (that's 13 HD's in that box as of now tho, lol).
Now that sounds awesome!! Would love to do that, wanna update main rig first though; new motherboard, better cpu(maybe the 6 core amd), better graphics card, the works!!!

IT IS HERE:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Ordered 6/15
Promised Ship date 7/12
Actual ship date 7/9
Delivered 7/13

Put on the charger at 11:25 and came back to work. Tonight I will be busy playing with my new Dinc:eek:
Congratulations Jen!!!!!!!

I got mine at noon straight up today central time. Was gonna head right to the Verizon store but seen it was easy to activate OTA. Had it activated and initial setup in around five minutes and it imported all of my contacts from my old phone which I had uploaded to Google. So I had no reason to go to the store. Hell, it took me longer to get the darn screen protector on straight than it did to get the phone set up. :D

Took out the factory battery and I put in the 1750MA battery I had here and put it on the charger turned off. I can say if it takes 8 hours to charge it won't bother me that much as I am so hung over today from a bottle of 20% home made blackberry wine with only 3 hours of sleep last night and only 4 hours yesterday. I am gonna take me a nap now and when it is charged spend the wee hours of the night learning the thing.

Hello all,

Been a long weekend of family visits. My house is finally my house again. lol. Congratulations to everyone who got their phones/emails/tracking numbers. I still havent gotten anything. Little pissed since I ordered on 6/16 and 6/18 & 6/19's are being shipped. Here's hoping for a notice today.

So they're sending estimated ship date emails? I'm glad I saw this. I would've gotten an email and had my hopes squashed since it wasn't a tracking email. :eek:

Just did the Fed Ex Trick, expecting the same old "order not found". And... THERE IT WAS!!!!

July 13th, 1:34 PM - Shipment Information Sent To Fed-Ex. Estimated Delivery is the 15th by 7PM!!

This was more than I hoped for! With my 6/19 (7/16 est. ship) order I was just hoping it would go out by Wednesday. Can't even believe it went out today!! I'll have it Thursday!!!


Edited To Add - I just checked the email and I did get one at 1:52 today. I also just called 611 and got the pending activation message.

Awesome :D. I've not really started playing on mine yet, getting ready to get rid of some of the pre-install apps I'll never use (CityID, Twitter?? Not gonna happen, lol).

Are you planning on rooting the phone, or using it as-is?

OMG!!!!!!!! OMG OMG OMG!!!! IT SHIPPED!!!!!!!!

They should have sent you one when you ordered. I don't think they're sending out any "updated ship dates" beyond the original.

Well, dang. I received two identical emails for the orders I placed that said this:

Thank you for shopping at VerizonWireless.com. Your order has been received and is subject to final credit approval. Pre-orders will ship when the item becomes available. We reserve the right to limit quantities. Customer signature is required at the time of delivery. You cannot change your shipping address after you submit the order. We will contact you if we need additional information to complete your order or if the item is out of stock or no longer available. If you have any questions, contact us at InternetOrders@Verizonwireless.com . Be sure to include your order reference number.

Plus the order details. Nothing about a date. Now the website just says the usual your order has been processed and will ship based on availability, blah, blah. But I did talk to that CS guy today....:D

The "shipping date" email is usually gotten when you email verizon asking for an update on your order. The email I was refering to was the email verizon is supposed to send you when your order ships.

i can't believe it's been 18 days since i ordered my dinc. I was told it would ship by the 23rd of July which is a friday. Lovely fedex doesn't deliver saturday so i am going to end up getting it on the 26th or 27th. I ordered a holster and an invisible shield. I can't wait for it to get here. I would have gotten it when it was first released but I was busy with school and what not :(

Hello Everyone,
I've been following this thread off and on for over 3 weeks. It's been really quiet the last few days! I ordered my Incredible in-store on the 19th. I'm coming out of my lurking status to let you all know my ORDER SHIPPED TODAY!!!!! (out of Memphis) I still can't believe it. I was really hoping since some orders have gone out early the last couple of days. This wait has been so long but I hope it's worth it. I also hope I can get the hang of everything by the end of the month, vacation! BTW, I'm coming from the LG DARE. Been a wonderful little phone for me but it's time to move on. Hope the Incredible is as sturdy and holds up as well as my Dare has. One thing, I've gotten used to using my fingernails on the touchscreen of my Dare. Don't think I can do this on the Inc?

Ordered 6/19
promised shipped date 7/16
actual ship date 7/13!!!
expected delievery7/15 (2 day)

LOL, I hope so!

This has been a very good day for me!
I got a lead on a kick ass government job with a better salary.
I found a new dog goomer who is cheaper and specializes in my breed.
I found out my car doesn't have an oil leak afterall, the idiots who did my last oil change just didn't put the cap back on so it's been splashing out :eek:

And last but not least... my DINC shipping notification!
