Droid X Scavenger Hunt Thread

[bzh027]

Btw i stopped reading each response to this thread at page 30ish cause they said 13 would be tue/wed before, but since it's imminent can you guys clear something up? The leading clues up to the final tweet in the found phones so far, did they have anything to indicate the final destination? It seemed they were just to generate hype and designate a city, or was there more to them?

I live in rochester and im going to drive over to buffalo for 13 after class. Its like an hourish away from where i live and I hardly know the city, but ima give it a shot. Its one of the smaller cities involved so I'm counting on less competition.

nearly 300,000 people i wouldn't call us small lol. I'm going to try and find it myself too, got all day off to goof off on the wild goose chase, would be funny if they had it at the AUD site or something haha, we haven't had a solid enough clue to give a good hint, we shall see though

i just meant in relation to the other cities. so far I believe they've all been top 30 U.S. cities in size, all like 500k+. Its easier than competing with 8 million in NYC.

I live in Vegas too...but am disappointed that ours will be revealed on launch day. I will have one in my hand long before they hide a card somewhere (probably on the strip - maybe at the "welcome to Vegas" sign?) that is a Vegas landmark. I wish you luck!

You're not gonna try for it?? BTW whereabouts do you live?? I live in Summerlin and I pre-ordered from the Best Buy across from Red Rock. I went in last week sometime and when I asked how many people had pre-ordered they said "not that many". If I don't get a Droid X on Thursday...either VIA easter egg hunt (which obviously is like winning a small lottery) or a pre-order screw up....look towards Red Rock mountains to see the blaze lighting up the sky that will be Best Buy

lol...nice. I live near Aliante...and plan on being at the store a bit early so as to avoid arson-like thoughts similar to yours.

If the mini lottery happens in the afternoon, then sure I'll try to find it...but I'm not going to pin my hopes of future X ownership on it. Best case scenario, I'll end up with two and my boyfriend can trade up from his Droid.

The Verizon store near me said they will have "plenty" but I don't trust that. I'll be there early! They also said if (when) they run out, it is a matter of two days before they get more in stock...specifically mentioning that this will NOT be like the Incredible fiasco.

Good luck to you, Red Rock dweller!

this is neither alphabetical order nor the order of the designate numbers, can we assume this is the order they will be released?

I bet they'll do some simultaneous drops...it's clearly not just one set of people running the phones out to different locations, so why not?
