Wait for Droid Bionic and Take Risk not having unlimited

[YourMobileGuru]

is the quality of the phone usually good on ebay or will u get ripped off and it doesn't work

Like everything else there is risk involved but read the feedback and make sure to pay through PayPal for the buyer protection.

I've only bought one phone that way (a new in box Moto Droid) and it came as advertised, but there have been a couple others I have wanted to get but the bidding went too high or my finances were not quite where I wanted them to be at the time.

Also the Charge will have to wait till at least Christmas to get Gingerbread given Samsungs track record...

Christmas of what year? Lol.
I got the TB and i really like it. I tried the charge in the store, it just didnt impress me like the first time i saw the Galaxy S. Im somewhat disappointed in Samsung, not only about thw update fiasco but the Charge as well...I actually wanted that phone and argued in its defense. Alas, Samsung let me down yet again.....but ts a great phone regardless...Hummingbird rox still.

After playing with both the revolution and the charge at verizon, I would say I like the Tbolt much more. It operates on a seemingly fluid level compared with the other 2 phones. Screens were jumps and notchy where as, with the tbolt, everything works well and works even better together.

I bought my tbolt on launch day. Waited 5 hours over night for it and I was the first to walk out of the verizon store with a working tbolt. Haaven't looked back since. I have been one of the people who have not rooted or gotten any of the OTA's. But like a few people said, problems are inevitable and us early adopters to this new realm of technology are the people that will force technology to get better faster.

With that said, get a tbolt, get unlimited data, and start rocking out in the 4G LTE Smartphone world!! It's awesome to be so connected to everything everywhere and anywhere you are.

From what I understand, Samsung has a much stronger commitment to timely updates after this last round of disappointments. All they had to do to regain my trust was give a SGSII to the guys at CyanogenMod, and now I would definitely buy another Samsung phone.

They said the same thing last year too with the original GS line and we waited more than 6 months. Until they DEMONSTRATE that a change has happened I would not believe anything they say. They have a long track record of not updating in forever or not at all and at the launch event they told Phil and the other journalists that things had changed and as it turned out nothing really had.

2012.... even Samsung wont take a whole year and a half....I don't think

If the battery lasts longer on the bionic than the thunderbolt because of the bionic's dual core's efficiency, then I'm sure that A LOT of thunderbolt owners will notice that would make them do the switch.

OK...possibly....but I'll believe that when I see it.

That's complete speculation at this point.In theory it works that way, but theory and practice are two different things. While Android supports dial core it is not yet optimized for it and the Atrix which was the first dual core device had issues with battery life too.

Just love fanboyism over mythical devices that don't event exist yet lol...
