Yes, excellent tips Colin & mikedaub. I am going to get Dropbox now.

-84 went to -60 with my "incredible" grip

Making the leap to Android after using an iPhone can be intimidating. After all, you have been living in the walled garden that is Apple for a while now. Android is what iPhone would be if iPhone's parents left for the weekend and iPhone could do whatever it pleased. These are just a few...

More bars all over the places Nikstorm, if you are making calls ok, then just check out the -db: -50 is better than -100 if you don't know how to read the numbers. It is likely that since you have good call quality that your phone is fine. Some users are reporting the bars are not...

VZWRocks: I appreciate your input, but I have to tell you. I certainly did not have a chip on my shoulder. I was open to any solution up until the point that the rep did two things: 1. He lied to me about bars versus -db 2. He did not even listen to my theory of how I troubleshooted (is that...

I knew I had a 30 day period, but when reading the fine print, the buyer has to pay a restocking fee if not returned within 3 days. In dealing with the many VZW reps along the way, not one of them reminded me of this. I knew it was an option the whole time, but I have had VZW service before...

NVR2ND, I appreciate your perspective. I keep my cool because I see those patients you are referring to and know that many things are worse than a signal fade. I also know, that time was important to get it resolved so I had a properly working phone. My 8.5 months pregnant wife cannot wait if...

Roy, having owned a BB 7130e and a Pearl a couple years ago, I definitely remember doing the host routing table send more than once. Owning these devices and using the Verizon network really made me loathe my 2 year sentence with AT&T for an iPhone. Never again will handset alone determine my...

Lots of other people, according to various forums, have had issues with the reception. If you have not, congrats on a owning best of class device on a very reliable 3G network. I hope others who may have a device with a defect get it resolved with less hassle than I encountered.

kilo, you are right, maybe the buyer beware was a little strong. The entire posting was not intended as a rant, it was actually so I could advise anyone else who got a bad phone on a tactic to maybe get a replacement without the kind of frustration that I endured. A company simply cannot...

Bigslam, I understand it is hard to convey the tone of a board posting to reflect actual events. I could not have been more polite to the rep in the store, in spite of his disdain for what I had to say, and not listening or caring. I really don't know how you can draw an opinion that I lost my...

I was ecstatic to get my VZW Droid Incredible last Thursday after pre-ordering it online. I was quickly disappointed when I turned it on and had only 1 bar on my signal, and the -db hovered around -96, while my wife's World BB issued by her employer maintained a full signal. Some background...

My Incredible has shown me one and two bars for the most part, when idle. When I task it with pulling up data, it occasionally jumps up to 3-4 bars, then returns to the 1-2 bar range. Now I know 20 people are going to tell me that bar don't matter and to check the -db. So, I put the phone in...

Since I am a new customer, I was not able to apply my corporate discount yet. At least I was not online. I might pursue it later over the phone, but something tells me that it the amount of time spent on the phone wont be worth $30.
