5 pack for 1.50?


Sounds...great... lol

Maybe the hotspot feature will be free for now?
However, on the wirefly web site there is a 20 dollar hotspot option for 3g only and a 2GB cap and a limit of 5 devices.

I just pulled the 5GB number out of the air for an example.

 

[jayishere]

Mobile Hotspot is free until May 15th...2 months, not bad...I'm going to crush my data limit...I'm going for 1TB a month in that time

Wonder if that top 5% throttle for 3G will apply to the unlimited LTE plan.

Yeah first in line to grab mine out the verizon corporate store, just got a call from bud the asst. manager and his manager I know too. Said come on down after I eat me bowl of lucky charms and see where we little leprechaun left me pot of gold! (I meant Thunderbolt!!!). I hope everyone enjoys there new phone and look forward to comments and reviews.

This phone may just have better in store launch sales than the iphone. I swear this launch had to be planned. They built hype over the fan by not saying anything and just letting us forum folk go crazy. Genius.

 

[Perwilly]

I hope getting there an hour before store opening is early enough. My local store isn't helpful at all in volunteering info. Grrr!

 

[Edwill86]

Dont you all go and buy them all up now! I have to wait until Friday to buy mine and if they are all sold out...ill hunt you all down!
lol

It may be bigger instore because of no online pre-sale. But you're giving VZW too much credit. They didn't plan this or put this together.

I called both the BB I preordered from and the local VZW store and neither one of them knew if they would have any in stock on the 17th. Direct quote from the BB, "I'm not sure if we're getting them on the first day or a couple days later." I'm finding one on the 17th haha.

Anyone know what the battery specs are for the phone, talk time, standby time

Did you ask about the car mount? MY local store says they don't have them and I want one... they may be harder to find than the phones themselves after launch!

I am very much hoping they start selling it around or before 3AM EST, because I have work at 4am that day

Car mount i knew about before, but its also locked in inventory until the phone goes on sale Thursday, she did mention it might go on sale tonight after midnight too and still ship Thursday

I'm not sure what time... usually new phones don't go on sale online until 3am EST (so i guess its the next day in the whole US...)

But I may run into a problem if i can't get mine ordered that morning, i have work at 4am tomorrow and Thursday...

UPDATE:

and looky at what just got leaked, Netflix for android

[upz3]

Just went to my local store and they plan to call me tomorrow to let me know when to come in on Thursday, and will put my name on a TB. I take it since I spoke directly with a specific rep, he will be the one setting me up in order to get his cut.

So now I have a phone waiting at this store and BB.
