ive got an incredible that will EASILY give me 1.5 days of pretty heavy use.

is that you in your avatar? if so, i paint ball too!

If you can get 1.5 days out of an Incredible I've got some people that you need to talk to and give some tips.

the icrap4 will be avail for Verizon for Verizon customers early on Feb. 3 and to the public on Feb. 10th. It will most likely NOT have 4g, and a few months after this comes out Verizon will release their lineup of LTE phones that will blow the icrap away. and like every july, crapple will release an icrap5 that will more than likely be cabable of 4g on verizon, so to you crapple people. wait for july, don't jump the gun, even in there isn't 4g in your area, the icrap5 will be much better than icrap4. BTW I hate crapple. sorry if it;s obvious. MY dumbo step-mom switched to a-stink&t about 3 months ago because she HAD to have an icrap4. Well looky here, couldn't have just waited a few months and could have it on the best wireless network. astin&t is the worst now.

To each his own. I don't really like Apple myself (just a personal preference) but I'm not going to bash Apple or iPhone users because of it.

That being said I'd have to agree with the others saying root and wait for the slew of 4G devices rolling out.

With rooting you can get enough out of the Eris to make it an easy wait. Quicker/smoother response and feel, longer battery life, no dialer lag... It's pretty much a different phone after you find a ROM you like.

If you don't feel the same you can always make the jump after giving it a shot.

I was about to call it quits with Verizon after they gave me the 5th Eris, But I decided to root it and it is better. In my opinion it still is not a great phone but with the right rom it can be a good phone.

I would root it until you decide what you are going to do. I will say that I will never get a first gen anything ever again. I am happy that Verizon has the iPhone but you could not pay me to get the first one Verizon puts out after the experience I have had with my Eris.

I would love to see some of these people and their rooted eri(s)

when i had an eris, rooted or not...that thing was still horrible. I found mine laying in a drawer this morn

Cute phone, they need another in that form factor just slightly bigger....It feels a lot better in my hand than an incredible

When you are under contract you do what you have to do in order to have a phone that half way works.

I flash my eris with a different rom at least once a week. I have prolly tried them all. It will be a sweet day when I can upgrade my phone.

2 words: Tazz Froyo ! best rom for the eris!

I recently purchased a practically brand new D2 for only $240. My upgrade isn't until the end of the year. Besides, I'd rather buy a phone and not tie myself down to any particular provider or plan. I will have the freedom to stop my plan whenever I want.
