    I haven't had any problems with FDM, I just logged in to double check and it seems to be working fine for me. I have it set up to email and text me both, when a package is coming. I haven't received anything Fed-ex in a couple of weeks though.

    This board has really been sort of quiet this week, hopefully that means that just about everyone has their watches now! I have been trying to decide if I was going to keep my watch activated or not. This past weekend probably decided for me, I walked out of the house without my phone. I...

    That is great! They must not be shipping FedEx Home delivery anymore, since they don't normally deliver on Monday. They must be shipping overnight now.

    I had the same experience with the cheap ones, and it took over 3 weeks to get them. The Samsung connectors "official" adapters only took about a week. but they were a lot more expensive, but at least they stay on. I ordered the 20mm band from Amazon, got it 2 days (prime) I think it was $12...

    Do you have cloud service with Verizon? Several years back they gave 25 gig of cloud service per line for life (as long as account is active and in good standing).All my pictures automatically back up to the cloud. Since I am really bad about not saving my pictures off my phone to my computer...

    Thanks for the info, the phone being on would not be a problem with me, I never turn it off, just an occasional restart to reset everything. I've had to do a restart on the watch as well, it was going a little crazy on me, the restart did the trick.

    They are on Amazon, but they are not available for Prime, When I looked this morning, the delivery day shows July 27-Aug 12 unless you want to pay a $38 expedite fee. Not sure how long it takes from e-bay.

    I activated my, but I am thinking about dropping it and using just Bluetooth. Even knowing I have the watch, found that I am seldom without my phone. The only times I have ever thought about using my watch was the couple of times I walked out of the house without my phone. And of course the...

    Hey guys, I think we have proven the old saying "Misery loves company". 5 out of 6 of the "Top Liked" from the member shoutout section at the top of the page are on this thread.

    Dearest Marty, First let us (your customers) thank you for your wonderful and caring response (sarcasm intended). The VERIZON customers that have been caught up in this ordeal have been made very aware of the fact that this was a Samsung promotion. However, this Samsung promotion was...

    I posted the offer details on page 152 of this thread, you also have to put the watch on a 2 year contract, so if you decide to cancel it "early termination fees". Verizon is month to month, and $5 per month if you activate, but as you said with Verizon you also have the Bluetooth option with...

    Below is the offer details from the ATT website. Not positive but it appears you get the watch when you get the phone, since it specifies that if you return your phone within 14 days without the watch you will owe $199 discount price. If it was going through the same process as the Verizon...

    Maybe that was a Freudian slip and you were thinking "15" weeks and still waiting!

    Samsung can't ship enough S2's to fill the Verizon offer because AT&T is now offering the S2 free again, with the purchase of any qualifying Samsung phone. Their T&C's require the watch be activated at $10 per month and placed on a 2 year contract. This is about the 3rd time that AT&T has...

    The government needs to send the people in the witness protection program to Brightpoint, they would never be found.
