My 200GB microSD card is going to be here tomorrow as well. Tomorrow is going to be a great day despite being 30 degrees cooler than what it is now.
Global warming!
Hopefully that sticks around next week. Have to go from 82 in Hawaii to Sioux Falls, SD. Not looking forward to wearing a coat.Well it did get 71 degrees here in St. Paul, MN today which is unusual for the beginning of March. It was 55 degrees at 5 o'clock this morning when I woke up. The temps are that low around Memorial Day.

At least I'll have my new S7 for the trip. Hopefully.
Card charged, order still processing. ...cmon V

what time does the entertainment start in the morning, this has been a riot.
And I do undertand
Preordered on 3-5. Black GS7E
Have a UPS tracking # as of 1pm today, although nothing to report on actual tracking or estimated delivery date....Likely means that the phone was merely scanned and on the VZW truck to be sent to UPS for sorting in Memphis, but not actually in UPS' possession yet.
Haven't really seen if anyone has a newer preorder than 3/5 actually getting sent out, so figured it was worth mentioning =)
As for some side notes.....
1. I'm going to be massively upset if I don't end up getting that smart watch from the promo.... I had 2 different VZW CSRs confirm that I would... and truth be told, that promo was the ONLY reason I'm upgrading my phone at all, since I'm planning on selling the watch on Ebay to help cover the additional cost of the phone. And as far as I'm concerned, if Samsung cheaps out on the watches, those two CSRs make Verizon liable for my watch.... or the price difference thereof. Also I wonder if Samsung's recent editing of the fine print, from 300,000 units to 35,000 watches.... just means that they are honoring watches for preorders before they changed the fine print, and that only 35,000 remained after editing.
2. I find it entirely too suspicious that I was having tons of problems with my relatively ancient Galaxy Nexus the past month or so (which is what was prompting me to even look at finally using my upgrade).... including loss of data connection, frequent device crashes crashes, and general device sluggishness.... Since confirming my order for the GS7E, however, my GNEX has miraculously started working flawlessly again....
3. Samsung Pay, WhitePages, and Samsung Stock browser hopefully we can get working versions going on the 11th
4. I need a cheap case that provides actual drop protection... I've seen a few of the leather ones that are half wallets for $5-$15.... anyone confirm they do ok vs Drops?

I am going with Amazon.com: Galaxy S7 Edge Case - MoKo [Heavy Duty] Full Body Protective Rugged Holster Cover with Swivel Belt Clip - Dual Layer Shock Resistant Case for Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge 5.5 Inch 2016 Smartphone, BLUE: Cell Phones & Accessories for now. I had one for my Gflex 2 and it kept it safe enough to return to sprint after I finish setting up my S7E.I need a cheap case that provides actual drop protection...

I feel like the shipping situation makes Verizon liable for the watch. Some people were able to get overnight shipping and some (like myself) could only get 2day with no upgrade to overnight. That and the fact that there no order to how the shipping occurred, I.e. some people have received despite ordering after some who are still waiting. The only way I see Verizon not liable would have been if they didn't ship ANY preorders until they shipped ALL preorders, and would have had to ship them all the same speed.
