Eh, it's just a gut feeling they're coming, I have no shipping notice. No 611. No nothin'. I'm just really anxious. Mainly cuz it's an awesome little machine and I'm sick of staring over my friend's shoulders looking at their shiny EVOs But also my Blackberry is beginning to die hardcore. It crashes literally *every* day. It drops txt messages.

Patience sucks.

I have the *611 message. This is good, right?

 

[jrmckins]

After a full night charging I went to my office and activated my new Incredible. Of course it failed and I had to go to a Verizon store. Took them ~45 minutes to get the darn thing activated But it's all good now. Nice phone...

It's mirky what the 611 message indicates, but they've been taking it as a sign that your phone is going to be on it's way soon. Consider it proof that your phone exists.

be very careful, that is how all my trouble started, phone would not activate and store had trouble doing it. Then it all went down hill.

did you order online or instore?

clearly online orders are getting preference, very few in store orders are going out as early as the online orders and most are not even getting notifications.

i re-ordered instore after getting it early online, oh well.

Verizon shouldnt play favorites, its not right for those of us who had to return something through the stupid store.

[ThatBostonGuy]

For all those that ordered on 7/4, now is the time to get your hopes up as I just received my confirmation. Good luck everyone!

Consider yourself thanked.

I wonder if it's necessarily an intentional thing that in store orders aren't getting the tender loving care that online orders are. If it was going into the same system, you'd think they'd just fall into the same queue. Maybe in stores are processed differently by their system?

I ordered online... they told me yesterday the phone wasn't shipping until the end of next week, so I think there's a good chance your phone will ship too-- hang in there!

Is anyone else kind of afraid that they won't be able to figure out how to use this phone when it does finally arrive? I might have to wait until Wednesday to activate it, just because I have that day off and probably need a whole day to even START to figure this phone out...

Think it is mostly a coincidence. You see a difference in shipping, i believe, because of your region. Of course i am only guessing but still.

My friend ordered on 7/5 and he got his shipping notice today and will receive on 7/26. Ordered online.

Actually I was not really offended. I laughed too when I saw it. I should really watch how I use my words when posting on a forum where the majority of people posting are men.

Sorry about that I was joking and meant no harm, on another note I called CS around 11am EDT to inquire about my 6/27 order and was told that it was still on track for a 7/28 ship date

The other day the CS rep I spoke with told me it was on schedule for 7/26. This rep said that there was some kind of snafu on orders placed 6/27 and 6/28. I am getting the $25 dollar gift card though (BFD) I want my Damn Phone already !!
