Funny that there are so many Storm owners waiting to replace it with this particular phone (N1). My wife and I both have Storms and they've worked well for us (I can't remember the last time either of us had to do a batter pull), but we're both ready for something other than the same ol' Blackberry OS. I've already pretty much settled on Android and had considered taking up Verizon on there offer for an early upgrade with the purchase of a couple of new Droids (one for me and one for the Mrs.). Then, I stumbled upon the N1 and now I'm willing to wait.
I'm guess it will be Q2 of this year that VZW will get the N1, only because that (in my mind) is the business equivelant of "Spring". Although, I'd love to see it show up sooner than that, but my actualy NE2 date isn't until July anyway. Which brings me to my other point... if the only way to buy this thing will be directly from Google and they don't offer a NE2 price for existing customers, I'll probably just go with the Droid, instead (or perhaps another Android phone that is on VZW by then), but I'm not going to pay full price for a N1, as lovely as it may be.
