no dice, just called the 800-256-4646 number again and spoke to an extremely nice girl who was willing to place the order for me early, but the system wouldnt let her. Looks like Verizon finally put a block on all phone orders pertaining to the Incredible. She tried all different ways to get in to place the order and even some back channel ways also, but no luck. I think we all have to wait till the 29th. Some of you are lucky bastards.
