    [Closed] Win our Motorola Droid 3!

    Pathetic. I dropped it in the driveway this week, and the trackball fell out and rolled under the car somewhere -- which is really no great loss, as it only moved the cursor in one direction (and that one only sometimes). It only moved up, so I flipped it, now it only moves down, which requires...

    Have you guys tried the new Gmail Motion on your bolt?

    Thank goodness for the kickstand -- the Tbolt was made for this! ;-)

    Time is all most up - who's keeping - who's not?

    I'm sad to say that I've just cancelled my service and arranged to send the Tbolt back to Amazon. It's a great device, but because of spotty service in my location, I just can't rationalize the expense and 2-year commitment right now. I'll be moving soon, and maybe I'll get it again if I'm in...

    14 day return period

    Well, perhaps it's different if you ported a number, but mine was a new line. Unfortunately they refused to port my current number, and they activated the new line before the phone arrived. I did talk to Verizon yesterday about reception problems I'm having and also brought up this issue...

    Amazons shipping speed?

    Mine came from Amazon by UPS 2-day -- shipped Thursday, delivered Monday. By late Thursday there was a UPS tracking number in my order status.

    Read first post then post battery results

    I feel rather clueless... mine almost always has the same amount of "up" and "awake" time -- right now they're at 8:52 and 8:43, and that's with light to moderate use today -- the screen has been off the vast majority of the day. Is something wrong with my settings? What is really the difference...

    14 day return period

    Careful! I just realized that, at least for those of us who ordered through Amazon, the phone was activated when shipped. I placed my order March 16, it shipped March 17, and I received it March 21. It was officially "activated" March 17 according to Verizon. Perhaps I could call Verizon and...

    14 day return period

    I ordered mine through Amazon, and in anticipation of possibly having to return it (sadly), asked them this question. They said 14 days from activation, and that I should call them to initiate the return, and then call Verizon, and then if there were any issue in the future, they would have a...

    Number porting after purchase?

    I'm awaiting the arrival of my new Thunderbolt from Amazon :) I will be new to Verizon and it is very important to me to be able to port my old number. When placing the order, I wasn't able to arrange for porting because my current billing and and shipping addresses are not in the area where...

    FedEx Thunderbolt Package Weight..

    I don't know, maybe don't give up hope, as UPS lists mine (from Amazon) as 1.30 lb. ... but now I'm wondering if the 2 lb. people are getting something that I'm not ;)

    Limited Stock?

    Hmm... you're making me nervous. My nearest Verizon store is in a WI town of about 60,000, but I can't get there first thing Thursday. I hope you don't buy mine :eek:

    Wirefly Taking Pre-order TONIGHT!!!

    Could you explain how you figure an extra $30-50/mo? The plans I see offered on wirefly are the exact same prices and plans offered on the Verizon website. Am I missing something?

    There's a storm brewing...

    It does have unlimited texting options -- the "Nationwide Talk & Text" plans -- click on "show all plans" on the main page for the phone to see all available plans.
