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

So I finally broke down and dialed 611 again. This time something magical happened. I did not hear main menu. A voice begans speaking and said, "we are currently" and at that point I about passed out. I thougth for sure it was going to say that they were currently activating a new phone for me. Unfortunately the voice went on to say that they are currently experiencing a higher than normal call volume, probably due to Droid X.

I am insane!!!!


::laugh:: I did the same thing...I heart leapt into my throat when I didn't hear "Main Menu" right away....stupid high call volume. My phone has been shipped, and I never heard anything about it on 611, so I guess I either missed it, or not everyone gets the message...yes, I am the primary acct. holder. Wild...

Looks like I'm back to waiting again, lol. My Incredible died with a bad nand (flash) chip. Was reading an email, it locked. Rebooted and it came up without any of my installed apps, data or numbers, locked again, then went into a boot loop. Showed that the flash had bad blocks in the root shell, so I flashed it back to the factory firmware, same thing (just in case it was something with the root process I did). Best my local store could do was either give me a X (which they did have in stock, could have had it now), or get me a FRU unit. I went with the FRU, I can't wait another month for a phone, and will NOT have an X. Hopefully I'll get a new, not a real refurb unit, but at this point I need a phone, lol. Should HOPEFULLY have it Monday..
