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

So glad to see all these shipping notices!! Its getting closer and closer to my ship date (6/10)! This wait is killing me! Slowly, painfully killing me! :)

I'm more worried about my wife killing me first, I think she's tired of hearing me b*tch. She's just giving me the why did I marry you look whenever I mention it.

Well, a big THANK YOU to BabyBlues and ThinkPink and nmayer79 and olbriar and 2010ZR1 (really? do you own one? pics or fail!) and omshivsomething and whoever else's name I demolished and whoever else I forgot. Thank you for keeping me (sorta) sane over the last couple of weeks.

It's been fun hanging out with you and writing haiku to try to keep you amused.

My Inc is on the charger. So far I have lovingly put my new SD card in, put the battery in, applied the screen protector, put on the gradient case (which I got at a screamin' deal price at the VZ store), and checked out my car mounting system. (The Arkon SM015-2 is the wrong holder; it won't work because the grips cover the charging port... what you want is the kit that includes the SM040-2. I know that now. And so do you.)

I did not get a 2nd SD card. That's ok, I wouldn't have been likely to use it anyway at only 2GB. What matters is that I have the Incredible, and I can smile at it and think pleasant thoughts as I watch it charge.

Unfortunately I have to go to work tomorrow. Argh! So... no playing with phone yet.

Guess I'm one of the first 6/7s to get lucky. For those of you who had an earlier order date and a later ship date, hang in there.

:)

:eek::eek::eek::eek: OH.... MY.... GOD..... :eek::eek::eek::eek:

It took for what felt like an eternity but I'm happy to say that I've just received my shipping notification!!! Here are my order stats:

Order Date: 6/7
Ship By Date: 6/28
Actual Shipping Date: 6/30
Estimated Delivery: 7/2 before 7 pm

Shipping from West Chester, PA to Northern VA

After endless hours of hanging out in the forums, reading reviews as well as the online User's Guide, playing with that damn Verizon Incredible simulator and watching Dinc YouTube videos to pass the time, the wait is finally over!! And I have all my fellow hostages to thank for keeping me sane in the process. We just have to continue to hang in there everyone, especially my fellow 6/7'ers... There IS hope! :D:D

Unfortunately I'm not gonna be home on Friday until AFTER the estimated delivery time :( so I might have to leave Fedex a note to see if they'll release it!... But kinda nervous to do that!

Congrats to you! Please keep us informed what you learn and love about your new baby.

I'm with you there my friend. The husband AND the kids just roll their eyes when I even begin to say the word "incredible." Even when I am not actually talking about the phone - just the word evokes glares. :)

You have helped to make it tolerable as well blastoff. So glad you have Dinc in hand. Sorry you have to wait another day to play but admit, it's a bunch better than waiting on a shipping notice. Let us know it was all worth the wait..
