Win a Droid Incredible from Android Central! (contest)

[kevpowerhouse2]

With the Incredible, I will BE INCREDIBLE. Everything I will do will be INCREDIBLE. The way I drink my coffee will be INCREDIBLE. The way I watch TV will be INCREDIBLE. The way I eat my food will be INCREDIBLE. The way I "drop bombs" will be INCREDIBLE. I don't have "swagger" right now, but I will when I have an INCREDIBLE. My "beer belly" will magically turn into a Six Pack the moment I hold the INCREDIBLE in my hand for the first time! Things will happen to me that will be so INCREDIBLE, but I cant talk about i here because its so top secret and the second you read about it, your eyes will water and your skin will crawl and you will flee from the room because you just realized how INCREDIBLE I WILL BE WHEN I HAVE AN INCREDIBLE. Amen.

Well, here goes....
I lost my job last week friday, i was planning on buying the inc. but now that i am jobless i will not be able to. So what i am going to use my inc. for is finding a new job. Not just any job, a Incredible job. I use my phone as my primary internet, so with the bigger screen it will help me apply for more jobs.

How would I use my new Incredible" Let me Count the ways....

I would use my new "Incredible" to take down all of the EVIL "Initech" style corporations from the inside! Not by using it's amazing computing power and blazing highspeed connection to hack my way in mind you. Rather I would use the "Incredible's" tremendous Multi-Media powers to create a Virtual Disco - complete with the entire "Rick James" Catalogue on queue and wonderfully mesmerising visuals on the beautiful screen - held high for all to see! My "Incredible" and I would begin our plight of freedom from with in the local Initech branch (No Really! We have one!) by forming the first "Open Source" Multi-Company Conga Line! We would Travel through all of the local corporate parks - setting free each and every one of the "Shut In" style Cubicle Rats..... Pressing them to join our Conga-lined freedom train - until we have evenually, with the help of the "Incredible", freed every one from the evil clutches of the Cubicle Cramming, Freedom Crushing (not to mention late sleep and video game hating) Corporations!

That my friends - is how I would put to use MY "Incredible"!

Thank you! I am here all week! Try the Veal!

Im not going to spew out all these horrible "Incredible" puns to make you pick me. Honestly Im not even expecting to win this contest, but I will still have the phone. I've been patiently waiting for this device since I first heard about it (insider from VZW) in January. I will use it the way I use my Droid, everyday, and very heavily. I've been an Android lifer since the original G1, and when VZW gets the iPhone, I will not switch. To me there is no OS that even comes close to Android.

I want my family and friends to envy me "Incredibly" every time I take it out. I want their happy thoughts about their phone to be destroyed after looking at what the Incredible can do. I want to be asked, "hey what phone is that?" every time i take it out, and i will say, this is not a phone, it is the Incredible. now get me a beer.

If I were the owner of a Droid Incredible, I would use it to do all of the things that I can't do (or can't do well) with my BlackBerry Storm. I would also be able to move all of my music off of my iPod. At that point - I'd be happy to give both of these devices to an incredibly deserving individual while still being able to enjoy both (and much more) with my new phone. Sounds corny - but it would only be fitting to continue in the spirit of generosity after winning something as incredible as the Droid Incredible.

Hello Android Central,

I firmly believe the meaning of upgrading to the next best phone, which is clearly the Droid Incredible, is to increase productivity. Isn't that why everything gets faster, more efficient, and powerful with each step up? Of course I use all of the great extra features, but I always prioritize the advantage of any product based on how it will improve my lifestyle. With that being said, in my industry, I am an I.T. Specialist and increased productivity is the number one goal in the field of I.T. in all facets. I am often on the go so portability and efficiency is important to me. I have been a Verizon subscriber for quite some time and service is amazing; I cannot picture myself using any other service. I have had the Blackberries, the Palm Treos, Windows Mobile Phones, and I am currently using a Touch Pro 2 at the moment. Great phone, however I am ready to move to the next level. I have hacked my Touch Pro 2 to dual-boot to Android in order to use and test the Android Platform, which is amazing. I am convinced and excited about Android being what a Smartphone OS is suppose to be. I believe Android is the future along with getting a nod from the father of Linux (Linus Torvalds) and now uniting with the Linux Community, Android is gaining momentum to dominate. I am excited about the Droid Incredible, I have followed it since the beginning rumor mutterings and dreamt about one day owning one. I also firmly believe the Droid Incredible is the epitome of what an Android with the latest cutting edge technology is supposed to be, with the perfect illustration of increased efficiency, power, and productivity. I can't wait to have one in order to install the many great apps available, including the upcoming Log Me In app for Remote Support, and the many VNC Apps available. Hence helping me with increased productivity and efficiency in my field. I own an iPod Touch, and even though its cool for what it's worth, it seems like the Verizon iPhone rumors are now playing catch-up to what the Android OS offers. The Android OS along with the Droid Incredible gives the user freedom and liberty to do many things that its inferior competitors lack and are poorly trying to emulate. With that being said, I am excited about the Droid Incredible and for what it will do and accomplish for Verizon, Android, HTC and the Smartphone industry.

P.S. Why on earth Android Central is not in the leading run right now on those Wirefly Blog Awards is beyond me. I have checked out those other Android Blogs, and yet I catch myself checking out Android Central more often than the others because you guys are clearly the best. Android Central always has the latest breaking news quicker than any other. Especially with the Droid Incredible coverage, amazing reviews far better than any other. Keep up the good work.

Sincerely,

Future Android Owner and Fanatic

 

[Music Ian]

I will start a band, which will become the next incredible band everyone loves (like the Beatles - only different styles). With my fame, I will advertise everything Android related. And I'll teach my DROID INCREDIBLE to make me a sandwich (but of course!)

What will I do with the HTC Incredible?

What do I want to do with my new HTC Incredible? Well, let me start off by saying I am a current hard-core BlackBerry user. I always have at least four programs running on my Bold at any given time. While I love my crackberry, (and Kevin and the gang), I am at my wits-end with RIM?s OS. Memory leaks, poor developer environment, constantly having to reboot and wait 8 minutes- I can?t take it anymore. I am ready to take the plunge into the strange and wonderful Google universe.

The Incredible seems to be the obvious choice. What will I do with it? I want to stream Pandora in the background all day at work over the nation?s best network and blue-tooth it into my computer speakers. I want to remote-start my car in the winter when there is ice and snow all over it. I definitely want to use Google?s free turn-by-turn directions and stop paying Telenav $10 a month to get me lost. I obviously want access to all my friends all over the world with Facebook and follow all the goings-on on Twitter. Of course I want to use location-based profile switching for work and home. I clearly want to hold down all of my Mayor-ship?s in Foursquare. I have to have constant access to the Android Central Podcast while in my car. I want to meet new, like-minded Android friends that are pushing the limits and finding new ways to do things through their phone.

My girlfriend (er- soon to be wife) and I are going to have a baby in November. I want to use Google-Talk-Video or Qik or something to stream the birth of my baby to family and friends live! (Maybe I should discuss that with her first?) ? Nah- she will be fine with it, or get over it, one or the other

I want use slingbox (when it comes out) as a remote baby monitor. I also want to monitor the rest of my house too. There seems to be no end to the possibilities with Android! Who knows what else I will do with the Incredible? But rest assured, I will push that snapdragon to the limits and then some!

Keep up the great work, Android Central!

I will give this phone to my wife so she can make even better dinners for me because the BB Storm that she has is a POS and is slowing down her cooking abilities. I've lost 9 pounds in the past 3 weeks because of this. The Storm is slowly eating away my insides and I can't do anything about it. She's in need of something INCREDIBLE to help stop the suffering.

Please?

On the beach

I live in Tampa.
With this incredible phone, I'll be able to sit on the beach and poke my iPhone friends with text, messages and pics.
I'll keep asking them "Don't you want this INCREDIBLE PHONE?"

 

[ECas123]

What will I do with it? Well, I've never had a cell phone before so I'll be like a kid in a candy store. Browse the web, play games, take photos and videos for YouTube, download tons of apps, and so so so much more. I'm out in the of Yucca Valley in California and the only good carriers out here are AT&T and Verizon and there's no chance in hell I'm getting that bastardized Backflip. Pretty much the Incredible will be my new appendage.

 

[atlas9171]

With this Incredible phone I will finally be able to dump my not so incredible Blackberry and it's drab, boring OS and I will instantly become Mr. Incredible.

This phone could save my Marriage!

I may be overstating things a little but my wife and I have had a little friction lately regarding cell phones. I've always been the geek who lives for what's next and my wallet has paid the price. From the very first mention of a phone actually named "Incredible" my inner child has been working on just the right way to aquire it short of throwing a temper tantrum in the Verizon Store. I've gone on and on about its Incredible features and how awesome and customizable the Android OS is. I've bragged about how I would use the phone to completely change my life and become an Incredible Husband to her (Who needs to stop and ask for directions when you've got the Incredible). My wife is a smart lady and she read through my thinly veiled suggestions that I could use a new phone and threw down the gauntlet. She said, "Why should you get a new phone? When is it my turn to have the latest and greatest?" She went on to say, "When you get me an Incredible we'll talk about getting you one." Talk about a backfire... I didn't expect to have the tables turned on me so quickly. Without knowing it I had become an accidental phone salesman and I had an interested buyer. We are not due for our "new every two" upgrade for another 6 months but I was able to convince her that if I can get her a Droid Incredible she would make an "Incredible" sacrifice for me and let me take our next upgrade.

So what would I do with the Incredible? I would keep the beautiful woman I'm married to happy! When I really think about it, she truly deserves this phone.

 

[Reazen]

If I won the HTC Incredible I'd use it to replace the Dos Equis man as The Most Interesting Man in the World and title myself as "The Most Incredible Man in the World." My Storm 9530 is holding back my ability to grow the epic beard necessary for the title.

 

[mich1248]

having the Moto DROID already makes me the coolest kid on the block..but having the Incredible would make me more like a SuperHero...

 

[bijoy89]

With the Droid Incredible I would never need to bring anything else to class again. To be able to take notes, take pictures, research, record lectures (whether it be by audio or video), and study off my phone would be the ultimate convenience. Plus, I'd never have a boring class again!

 

[bigk]

As our story begins in a small village located at the ends of the earth called "Verizon" a mayor by the name of "HTC" came to a young lad by the name of "bigk". The mayor knew full well that he was capable of taking down dragons, HTC asked if he was available to take this beast down come April 29, 2010, bigk stood up proudly and said "yes sir!" and he walked out the door to grab his stuff. What the mayor didn't tell bigk is that this isn't an ordinary dragon this is a Qualcomm snapdragon and this isn't going to be a walk in the park like the Nexus dragon. As he walked to the village's armory he just kept thinking, "THIS IS INCREDIBLE I will be able to save this entire village." As he reached the armory "Eris" his girl friend came running down in a panic. Out of breath and says "What are you doing Bigk? You can't take down this dragon! He too FAST too SNAPPY, I mean the villagers say its almost like this dragon can sense U&I this very moment. He knows when hes going to be attacked." Bigk standing there dumb founded realized hes going to need to protect him self, with some sort of armor.
Finally reaching the armory he opens door to find all these INCREDIBLE swords and shields. As he went through the shields he could not find one for his liking for a good 30 minutes. But there it was, in the corner all by it's self. It was an gold plated EVDO shield, legend has it that it can auto focus on it's target. Standing there bigk knew this was his shield. Shortly after Bigk knew that a shield alone will not take down this dragon hes going need a sword. As he glances over at the wall of swords he sees a silver one but some thing is not quite right, he can't quite put his finger on it. As he takes the sword he lifts it above this head and then.....he sees it. It took him a minute but he realized what was wrong with it. It was an AMOLED silver sword, but it only had a 3.7 inch blade. As he lowers the sword from above this head he sees another sword but this sword only had a 3.2 inch blade, and it has the word "Hero" engraved on it. Assuming some one planted it there for him to take he grabs his EVDO shield and the AMOLED sword and walks out to meet this beast.
Stepping out of the armory hes notices a fire ball coming from the village out to space, that's when he begins to run towards the village. Moments later hes greeted by the village's main gate but it's locked and secure tightly by the local lock smiths pad lock. Knowing full well that he needs to take down this dragon as soon as possible he lifts his sword and swipes to unlock the pad lock. The dragon takes notice to this and turns to bigk...
He suddenly realizes this isnt some ordinary dragon it's a Qualcomm snapdragon! As he lifts this shield towards the dragon the autofocus locks on to the enemy faster then a dual flash of lighting. Noticing this action from the shield Bigk feels ready to tackle this snap dragon. He lifts his sword above his head and yells "LONG LIVE VERIZON!!" He then runs as fast as he can toward the dragon, the dragon then splits out fire ball, bigk then dashes out of the way but then the fire ball turns as if it was controlled by gps and crashes into the ground. Quickly recovering bigk stands up and rushes towards the dragon, he heads for the dragon's right foot swipes his sword upwards, brings it down as if it weighed 32GB and cuts off his pinky toe. The dragon falls to it's side and dies right there.
HTC and Eris comes running up to Bigk to make sure he is ok. Eris gives Bigk a hug and HTC says "That was AWESOME!!!" Bigk looks at the mayor with a huge smile and begins to opens his mouth but then Eris yells "No, no, that was not AWESOME, it was INCREDIBLE."

Bigk will then call the local lock smith with his Verizon HTC Incredible and tell him the dragon broke the pad lock on the front gate.

*****************THE END*****************

That is what I'm going to do with my Verizon HTC Incredible.

Thanks for reading,

Bigk

 

[soulglo]

I'll get some sleep. Since hearing about this phone i've devoted entirely too many (debatable) late nights to reading about every spyshot and leak and rumor and review. Having the phone in hand will eliminate the need to do so, thus allowing me to finally get some sleep. But then i'll probably devote the rest of my nights to playing with the phone, but im actually ok with that.

 

[cowboys2000]

I would use the phone as a mobile hotspot while on the road, camping. This device might alllow me to get rid of my mobile broadband card if I can talk and go online at the same time.
