I went to my nephew's 19th birthday party last night...he had an Incredible! I could not believe it. My wife has been considering the Blackberry Bold 9650 since she is not really into games and any apps other than productivity types of apps and she liked the "real" keyboard on the Blackberry.
Well, I guess my nephew is a good salesman as we just went to Verizon today and my wife decided to order an HTC Incredible for herself instead of the Blackberry.
Only problem now is that, to avoid any confusion with our billing cycle and not having to start with 2 individual plans and then merge into a family plan a month after her's comes in a week later, I now have to wait another week or so after I get mine shipped before I can activate mine. We do not have Verizon plans yet, new customers.
Oh well, I've already got to wait a month anyway, what's another week (I know...pure torture

? At least I can charge it a few times and read the manual.
Hopefully people start to report that their orders are coming earlier than expected or at least on time. That would be great news.
I also hope that she gets the AMOLED screen instead of the SLCD screen. If this
article is correct, she should slip right in at the last minute and get the AMOLED screen still. Cross your fingers.
