I dont know why there is hate against Ben5 and panda. If they can only give hints, then Im fine with that. Its funny how there are people knocking them and complaining but Ben5 & Panda have offered something and if it is a risk to their job, I appreciate them even more.

If you dont like what they say or dont trust it, thats fine. YOU don't need to knock them. I still find it funny that they get knocked by people but yet those same posters keep coming back here to get info....

Sorry for the rant but Ben5 & Panda need some appreciation. They may not be able to tell us everything but they do try to hint at a direction for us..

+100. The reason they don't share more that they no doubt have, is because of the people that bash them here and on Twitter. If you want more info from them, don't complain. You'd be surprised what non-negativity yields.
 
Recap of my life:
On vacation in the beautiful mountains of Colorado. In between all of our vacation activities hubby is playing with new zune, son is playing new games on wii.
Me, I am refreshing this thread every 13 seconds and hunting for videos on the thunderbolt and sense. I have organized all of my gmail contacts and labeled them perfectly, I have evaluated all of my current apps to decide what to continue to use on TB, I have backed up the info from said apps, I have organized my e-books and have them cataloged and ready to go on new phone, and I have ordered a case and screen protectors. I am about to lose my mind!!! Release the damn phone already.

i'm thankful for information when it's credible. but with ben5 & panda i do think they are open to skepticism on their credibility at times.

ben5= i heard he posted some sort of VZW credentials but never saw the post. if it's real--i'd love to see it. otherwise, i associate him with every other person who has "insider information" (aka my Cheerios told me so). anyone could take info from another site & post it here as "i heard it from Corporate, check it on other sites & see that it's not only me knowing this info"

Panda=yeah, he's a tester. he just seems immature at times. we get you're a tester, we don't need to follow you if we don't like you (i stopped following him, btw, b/c i was sick of his attitude). i like the information he provided, but hated the 5th grade maturity he presented. he reminded me of that skinny kid game-tester from Grandma's Boy. but, granted, he's provided more info than anyone in any forum, so i give him "props" for that.
 
Call me now Best Buy :)

I decided if this is restricted to a 2 year contract (strong feeling it will be), I will keep my reservation from BB in order to save $50.

That's counterintuitive. So, if we bash them because they give hints, they'll just keep giving us hints? One would assume the response would be to either a) say nothing or b) give more concrete information.

Bennnnn doesn't seem like someone looking excessive amounts of attention, but BMX definitely is. If he just gave information people would have it, be thankful and move on. But hints... and clues... and poems... and "maybe".. and "might"... it keeps people hanging on, talking about it... which is what he wants.

I'm glad he's here to help the community but people act like this is some kind of selfless act. He clearly gets something out of it.
 
As much as we bash VZW for this screwed up launch, I think this and some of ther other things are great gestures. We can't lose sight of what is really important and what is not so important.

We're about to announce free calls to Japan from wireless and residential landline phones. Free messaging to Japan too.

But see Be5n hasn't been hinting any more, instead he has been coming right out and saying that the 17th still looks good.

AT&T already announced this.
yet another thing in which VZW is too slow to announce :)

but hey, still--good for them. nice to see a company do it.

Yup, which is why I don't think he's quite the attention seeker that BMX is. Bennnn just seems like an enthusiast who is privileged to a little more inside info.

Seriously Verizon. Just come.put and say it. There wasn't HALF this evidence pointing towards the 14th. Or the 28th. Or the 10th... you get the idea. :)
