Gather 'round kids, it's story time...
I upgraded to a Moto Droid on 6/3, played with it over the weekend, took it back and used my 30-day guarantee to get the DInc on 6/8 (and have been stuck with my LG Voyager ever since because they took the Moto Droid back).
I have gone back to the store I purchased it at since then and been quoted a ship date of 6/30, I then called CS a week or so later and got a ship date of 7/9.
Today for my lunch break I was not all that hungry and decided that I would just go play with the DInc at the aformentioned VZ store. When I walked in, the store was like a ghost town so I figured what the heck, I'll have them look up my order for sh*ts and giggles. The lady that helped me today was the same one that originally sold me the Moto Droid and also the same one that did my swap for the DInc, and she has always seemed very knowledgable as to what is going on. The first response I got was, "It hasn't been shipped yet" (surprise, surprise...). However, she (and the store manager that was sitting right next to her) kept digging. She then found something (a date matrix of some sort I would have to assume) and told me that it should ship no later than 6/28. It was at that point I began laughing. Yes, I really did laugh in their faces... With looks of confusion they cocked their heads at me somewhat and aksed "What?" I told them the information that I have been keeping track of on this (and other) forum(s). Here's the interesting part that gives me a smidgeon of hope... She told me that as recently as yesterday they have had customers come in that have received their phones, and in some cases they have received them as many as 1-4 days early. This may be a fluke and it may also be isolated by some sort of shipping district/region, but I figured it was worth tossing the info out there.
