Just got my Photon!

Here it is. I can confirm the phone can rest easily on the kickstand with the charging port facing upward!

EXCELLENT!!! and congrats on being the first to get it and post it!!

But the other big Q that remains on my list is do you need the dock to use webtop or can you use it with just the HDMI cable plugged into the phone?? BIG Q there that everyone is curious about.

When I first plugged the phone in the screen flashed the battery charge screen and showed 70% charged. The notification light was lit a yellow/orange color. Its been charging 53 minutes now and the light is green. I still havent turned it on yet. (Im paranoid if I dont let it go 3 hrs Ill have a battery that loses power faster then it should...yes, OCD).

I read on Android Central that the phone does not come with a microSD card. Is this true? That's a bit of a bummer...it'll be the first Android phone (really any recent Sprint phones) that does not come with a microSD card.

Correct. There is NO sd card with the phone. It comes with the Li-Ion battery, AC Charger with USB cable, SIM card installed, Get started guide, another booklet for terms/conditions, and a bag for recycling an old phone if you want.

you are correct, there is not SD card. The internal memory is at 16gigs and is split up into various places.

With that can we get someone who boots the phone to give us a screenshot of the memory screen? pretty please :p
