Mine still says pending but the only way I know my label was created was through my fedex manager. It's a free service to sign up

I did, I have both UPS my choice, and Fedex manager, and both show nothing still

I don't think this is correct. I thought it was confirmed multiple places that it doesn't have to be connected. I at least had that confirmed from a few different Verizon reps. I don't see how they can force you to do that unless they charge you when you place the original order. It MAY be the 3G version but I believe the watches basic features will work without a plan.
I would not mind paying $5 extra a month for the 3G. I like to run, and I always run without the bulkiness of a phone in my pocket, so the feature of being able to still track my route and distance without my phone and just the watch appeals to me, so here's to it being the 3G version for me!....if it ever comes.....

Wonder if you can add music! This would be awesome! Wonder about the distance VA battery
If this isn't what's suited up for me I'm going to sell then buy the Fenix 3

Milk Music will stream + you can add some MP3's (limited to memory). Streaming, as expected, significantly reduces the battery. The S2 is in no way comparable to a real running watch btw. If you are a serious runner skip the Fenix 3 and take a serious look at the 920XT (I have had nearly every Garmin running watch and 920XT is far and away the best to date). I don't run with my Gear S ... but use it all the time as a 3G phone and audio manager for my BT devices.
I still find it hard to believe they will ship the 3G S2... From what VZW says they will not/can not sell with out a service plan (IE - attached to a service plan - and note if you have unlimited plans like myself you have to be very creative to add .. as they will not add to a Unlimited plan). In fact if you call Verizon they cant even sell you a BT S2 w/out data plan. So lets say they ship 3G... but person on the other end does not want to pay additional fee for 3G activation? It's 5 bucks if you have a qualified plan.. but if you dont you would need to add a new line.. pay line fee + data package etc... it gets messy fast. I hope they do ship 3G's as I have (3) S2's on the way .. but will believe it when I see it.

Got mine today, it is indeed the 3G version. It does not have to be activated but you can, $5 a month.
Nice - post a pic when you can. I'm still rocking my S .... looking forward to seeing how different/better/faster ... the S2 is. I'm going to miss the curved S though.... I get more comments on this watch than all of my other e-watches.
Looks good! Super hyped now. My patience is finally at 0! Haha

I really really like it, it makes my Sony SmartWatch 3 look like a ancient fossil. Tizen is really good on it, I really like the UI and its functionality.

I'm also getting the watch but am thinking about selling it. I'm not thrilled that it only uses the Samsung appreciate store and not the Google play store.
