Verizon moto maker 11/11?

Still waiting. Going back and forth between an X with soft touch back and 32GB or a Droid Maxx. If the X had the Maxx's battery it'd be a no brainer, but the wireless charging might be cool too.

I asked at a couple places about MotoMaker the other day. Motorola said maybe sometime in December but not confirmed. Verizon rep said his Moto rep said Verizon might end up not offering MotoMaker, because of the hassle with returns and such. While I'd be more inclined to trust evleaks more than these sources, I could see Verizon using that as a reason to not offer it. Here's hoping evleaks is on the money.

The only reason I'm still keeping tabs on the X is I'm hoping they offer a better version with a bigger battery and Qi charging. Since I'm pretty sure us Verizon folks are screwed for the Nexus 5 it is between an upgraded X and the G2 for me. I would like the X's form factor, but the LCD screen, bigger battery, and Qi charging have the G2 well ahead of the X. The only thing the G2 doesn't have yet is a AOSP rom.

What you said for the X is never going to happen. At least not until the X is updated. A year from now. If they ever plan to make it the X2.
