Good call on waiting it out. One other thing to note is that the HD resolution is not all it's cracked up to be in some ways. It makes text very small while browsing the web. Also, on certain phones it is very hard to tell that it even has the higher resolution unless you're in certain apps. I almost bought the HD version of this phone (imported) but after playing with a few HD phones in an ATT store, it wasn't worth the extra money and I actually preferred the Skyrocket's screen. I've had the Skyrocket for a few months and it's easily the best phone I've ever owned. And for you IOS guys, IOS is definitely awesome and I have many IOS products. But if this helps at all, I sold my iPhone 4s to use my Skyrocket full time as it was just sitting in the drawer collecting dust.
