So what is the reason for pre-ordering? Do you guys really think the phone will sell out? I don't think there are many people as into this phone other than us.

P.S. My Storm basically said "FU" to me today by crashing and making me lose all my contacts...so ready to get this phone!

I REALLY don't think this phone will sell out... Maybe a store here or there, but most decent sized town/cities will have 5-10 places that will have them.

There's at least 4-5 Verizon stores, 4 BB's(1 BBM), and another 4-5 "authorized" sellers, PLUS wallymart if they do carry them...

I CAN'T imagine not beginning able to get one in my town...

I'm just pre-ordering to make sure I get it. I don't think it will sell out because not many people know about it yet. However that could change if VZW starts to market the Incredibile this week.

i actually got my presale order today at bb, but i am going to get my $50 back because im due for ne2 and they DO NOT accept that discount. i was kinda pissed. Is there anyone else in here that can confirm this????

I went into a BB today and they would not allow me to preorder yet. I then asked if they would honor my NE2 and they had no idea what that was. I explained it to them and they said that if i could show them proof, like a printed out webpage, they could override their price and match the one i showed them.

Did anyone see this.. Dammmmm....

iPhone 4G: is this it? -- Engadget

80gb of storage wow...

Still going with the Incredible though. I hate the Iphone os and the new iphone os. Its fugly and you can not do a lot with it. Android or die baby. But dam apple does put out good products. Seems like apple may be trying to curb the Incredible swing. It just happens to left at a bar... right.....

I just called my local Verizon store, and they said that I was the first person to ask about purchasing an Incredible from them. Said they'd set one aside for me when they got their shipment.

This in a town with two major state universities within 6 miles of the store. Local conditions may vary, but sans a major advertising push by Verizon over the next couple of weeks, I don't see a Black Friday-type rush on the phone.

First of all, THANK YOU ntbeachnc!! This worked for me, and my NE2 date was the end of October, 2010!

Next, I've called *611 several times, and I got the same response as others (that if it was only a month or 6 weeks, they would do it, but that my date was too far away to move). This time, I emailed VZW through the "contact us" link on the web site. Today I got the following response confirming that VZW moved my NE2 from the end of october to 4/19/2010:

"Dear xxxxxx xxxxxx,

Good afternoon! It's always a joy to hear from long time loyal customers, especially those that have stayed with us as long as you have. I completely understand your need to purchase an updated device, and our phone line up has some great phones with amazing capabilities. My name is Amanda and I would be more than happy to assist you.

After reviewing your account I am pleased to inform you that we have changed your New Every Two upgrade date to 04/19/2010. You will be able to preorder the Droid Incredible on 04/19/2010 and use your New Every Two Discount in the amount of $100.00 as well. This change was made effective immediately, so it should only be about 24 hours before you can view the change online.

xxxxxx, I want to thank you for being the most important part of Verizon Wireless and for the great opportunity to assist you today. Your loyalty is greatly appreciated and I was glad to be able to change the upgrade date to better fit your needs. Should you have additional questions or concerns in the future, please do not hesitate to contact us by replying to this email.

Have a wonderful day!


Sincerely,

Amanda
Verizon Wireless
Customer Service"

Of course, this probably won't work every time, but it seems like if you ask via email, there is a much better chance that VZW will change your NE2 date. Good luck!


Mine is 10/5/2010 and they won't do it for me I've emailed them several times ::mad:

Wow that about as sexy as the Incredible...if apple announces this for verizon before the incredible comes out i don't know what i'll do. Now i am tempted to pay the full price of $599 for the Incredible so i'm not stuck with a contract in case i can't resist the iphone.....
