My sister, who also works at Verizon, tells me that Samsung is coming with something and that it won't be like the "bionic wait".

Of course, that tells me nothing I don't already know. And I'm not willing to wait til after CES to get the Prime. Like I said before, if Black Friday comes around, and I don't hear anything official regarding the Prime's release, then I'm getting the Bionic.

Those of us who prefer the Prime are by no means calling out the Bionic as being a chump phone. It's freaking awesome. I just think that I would rather have ICS out of the box and a full HD screen.

I am not against the Prime either just wish there was something concrete about it from my contacts like I got with the Bionic. There has been nothing.. I still will pick it up after getting the Bionic and give the Bionic to my wife.

Damn, Preach, they're going on about your feet in the pic thread.

I'm set on the Prime, but I might use a portion of my Ducati Diavel down payment money for the Bionic, now that it's rooted.

If i hear that the Prime is for sure locked in for an early October release date, i might actually consider waiting. If i dont hear anything soon im getting the Bionic like ive been planning on all along.

I certainly would prefer to go with the Prime if the speculation is true, but as I don't believe any real concrete details will pop up between now and the Bionic launch, I've decided to draw my line at the Bionic.

If the Prime releases and meets expectations, then I couldn't imagine having much trouble selling the Bionic, and just paying the difference in retail cost for the Prime.

Given it's already rooted and has a good amount of momentum behind it, I anticipate a fair amount of dev support, already. I'm in.
