Hey All--
Long time lurker on this thread. Just wanted to say hi.
Also was over on the Verge earlier reading their post about Dec 15 being the new date. A comment in their discussion had a link to an online petition to VZ to release the phone. Definitely not something I started, but everyone should go check it out (I can post links yet
.
On another note, I have been reading all the ISIS and Google Wallet discussion--I just find it hard to believe this is a delay reason. I'm sure Google could fight it out with Verizon after a release to get the desired results they want. While I don't think this phone is going to sell the amount the iphone sells, I do think that both sides are missing out on sales opportunities if this corporate dispute continues.
Regardless, I'm anxious to get a new phone. My OG Droid is like everyone else's and on its last leg. It is extremely laggy, it always has random mispresses, and I can't use the headphone jack. Essentially it has been reduced to the functionality of a dumbphone because it is so slow and I'm only holding on to my unlimited data. Of course, it has been a great phone to own--built like a tank and it has gotten its share of abuse.
