So I just came back from verizon store and i have 3 points to make

**Oxn** · 06-22-2011, 12:04 PM

1st, i asked the rep,

http://forum.androidcentral.com/droi...lp-me-out.html

and i can confirm that i can steal the upgrade from another line to get me another smartphone without adding data to the dummy line.

2nd, I tested out the DX2, and i love the screen. If thats what the Bionic sports, then i am on board.

Lastly, after talking with the rep for a minute (he had on a straight face the whole time). I asked him the final question, and that is have you heard anything about the Bionic. He gave a Giant Smile and just said NO.

Take it for what you will.

You should have kicked him in the jewels and screamed "No means yes, Mother****er! Show me the test unit!"

Alas, hindsight is 20/20.

Usually they will try to small talk you, and say things like we havent heard anything yet.

But all he said was 1 word, and 1 word only with a giant smile.

"NO"

**ffac789** · 06-22-2011, 12:20 PM

It's coming...

**ShiZero** · 06-22-2011, 12:20 PM

He's an iPhonefag, that's why the big smile. He just wants to see Android burn.

**jdg1** · 06-22-2011, 12:24 PM

Just left the corporate Verizon store where I have done business for the last few years. I know a couple of guys there and wanted to get better clarification on the grandfathered unlimited plans. These guys are very professional and straight talkers. They couldn't really give me a definitive answer on the grandfathering conditions because its not been officially announced. That left me a bit disappointed and I explained to them that I might as well pull the plug and get a TB or Charge now since that's probably where I would end up because the bionic is nowhere in sight. They both smiled and said "be patient" simultaneously. I said the 7th was just around the corner. They both stood there and kept smiling. Then one said I'll see you in a couple of weeks.

**Oxn** · 06-22-2011, 12:25 PM

All will be revealed, Tonight

**Hand_O_Death** · 06-22-2011, 12:32 PM

Damnit Oxn, NO. If your pulling this again, then I want to know WHY the timeframe and not tell us now. Spill it.

I always liked you, Oxn.

**Asterdroid** · 06-22-2011, 12:38 PM

Oxn,

If you're getting info from an inside source, try to find out the deal with the bootloader.

**Hand_O_Death** · 06-22-2011, 12:40 PM

And cookies, I still want my cookies.

i dont think you understand the term "all"

**jaymelanie** · 06-22-2011, 12:44 PM

Hi gang, new to all this so I haven't suffered as much as the rest of you. But like you I sure hope Oxn is right! How will the revelatino occur? In this forum? Official announcement? Light shining from the heavens?

**Fable** · 06-22-2011, 12:44 PM

lol... this is a big check your writing Oxn.. sure you don't want to say "All" will be revealed this week? Info that big might not fit in one leak

**Hand_O_Death** · 06-22-2011, 12:45 PM

All as in All about the Bionic (I hope) or All as in All about tiered pricing.

Or both?

Start at about page 90 their and you will understand. His info has been good in the past (as far as we know) outside clarification shortly after his reveal so most of us trust him. Though he still has not made good on the cookie he promised.

I always love these statements lol. The straight faced sales Rep suddenly grins and with a wink and a smile says "NO" hahahaha

Why isn't it ever the jovial sales Rep? Its always the straight faced business as usual Rep that gives the all knowing grin. At least be original with your story telling Oxn. Jeesh....

**Asterdroid** · 06-22-2011, 12:49 PM

It's time for the big reveal......

There it is folks. Carry on.

**Oxn** · 06-22-2011, 12:49 PM

So show of hands.

Who actually tested a DX2, and like the screen?

I went to look for these grids or dots or whatchamanjigitz, and i cannot locate them. I tried on black backgrounds, i tried on white backgrounds.

Just couldnt see it.

Very clean screen imo.

more original than real life experience?

How do you deviate from that?

I do prefer the SAMOLED+, but I didn't have any problems with the DX2 screen, personally.

It's kind of in the same way I prefer Ribeye to Top Sirloin.

Wow, there really is a lot to get caught up on. Thank God I emerged from my hole about a week ago and heard about the Bionic for the first time (no lie!). I feel so ignorant

Thanks for the advice "Hand-O-Death" and cool name by the way!
