*** Official Motorola Droid X Pre-Release Thread***

[Curt941]

If you're already following droidlanding it won't show up at the top, but if you sign out of your twitter account, a window will be at the top that has a prompt to sign up, as well as mentioning that you can follow the twitter account by texting the name to 40404

You can text curt941 to 40404 and follow my awesome twitter as well!

Also, when you click on the name (DroidLanding, VZW Wireless, etc) next to the word "following" is a little phone. Click on it and if your phone is signed up, it will automatically send you the messages. Conversely, you can turn it off the same way.

It's my first smartphone after trying the awful BB Storm 1 when it launched.

As someone who had the Storm 1, and has been with the Storm 2 since it launched, I completely feel your pain and understand your eagerness to get the hell out of that phone!

@verizonwireless tweeted that CNBC is at the press conference? Any chance they will have a life feed?

 

[jreed2560]

that would be SWEET!

 

[OME6A]

This is the only place I've found that is doing any sort of live coverage of the conference: The Droid Guy

 

[Paznos]

Well Cnet and Engadget are suppose to be liveblogging from the event.

[Paznos]

[Flying_Hellfish]

The time was right 2 days ago, for some reason the vzw twitter reported it wrong this morning.

 

[aeronauticsrock]

Yeah 45 mins from now, they kept changing the time

The original invitation WEEKS ago said 1 PM EST... no time changing going on at all.

 

[Paznos]

The original invitation WEEKS ago said 1 PM EST... no time changing going on at all.

ah your right the 12PM time was for the registration and lunch dunno why I thought otherwise.

 

[Wolfedude88]

The original invitation WEEKS ago said 1 PM EST... no time changing going on at all.

A verizon twitter account said, 11am eastern time, then 12pm, then 1pm. That is what confused some, and why he said the time change.

 

[Deathshead]

looks like engadget & gizmodo will be waiting to the last second to launch the livefeed? Wtf? If it was an APPLE product they would be hyping this for weeks with giant banners..

 

[piraticaphobiac]

Yeah, didn't engadget even have liveblog up earlier than this for the KIN announcement?

 

[ylexot]

Twitter feed mentioning another mystery partner (video-related)...Hulu?????

 

[piraticaphobiac]

This is going to be the longest killing a half-hour at work ever.

 

[Gamble]

Twitter feed mentioning another mystery partner (video-related)...Hulu?????

Naaah, it has to be Blockbuster Video. Remember the Blockbuster app from the Engadget video?

 

[ylexot]

Yeah, you're right. I had forgotten about that.
