my sad, sad motorola q
I wanted to avoid all things blackberry and got my Motorola Q - which was the cool thing for... oh about a month... and now it's just sad. I'm embarrassed about showing it - i have to turn around to use it. It runs on Windows for g-sake! It has no touch-anything. So sad, please help bring me into at least the present, if not the future of mobile-living!

I want to be incredible
How about replacing my crappy LG EnV2 with a shiny new Incredible. I have t0 open the phone to receive calls because some of the buttons on the front no longer work. It also randomly shuts off in my pocket causing me to miss calls.
I just put a turtle hex on everyone else's post so i am guaranteed to win.
This would be the first thing in my life that I have ever won!

I have a BB Tour. Really wanted a Nexus One on Verizon but we know thats not going to happen.
I have a sorry ass phone. It is so old, there is no camera! I first got it in July of 2005. It has a keyboard, it's a Motorola. I can't take photos, I can't access email, I can only save a certain amount of text messages. It's insane.
I'm using a droid now but I would love to have a better phone than my girlfriend. I just upgraded from a blackberry storm, I loved it till I got an android phone. Spoil me please Android Central.
replace this plz
So, I'm a windows guy on big red and have used winmo for quite a while. I got this samsung omnia but to my chagrin it wasn't quite an iphone. Of course we have the bandwagon people here at work and they think they are this shizzit when they whip their phones out on the worst network in this area. So the only thing i have going for me is that i don't drop phone calls and well a custom rom of the omnia forums that makes the phone much better but is about as stable as windows 3.1. I do have a 5mp camera which does take ok pictures and 8GB of storage but the screen lacks any worth while feel. So take pitty on me with my 4 kids and no moola for a new phone and bring me to the Android Market and I'll whip up on some Iphone using coolaid drinking fools. Yep there is a map and app for that!

Haha, my sorry old phone is a BlackBerry Tour... I am itching to jump off the sinking ship that is RIM and in a bad way. Funny how this phone (the Tour I mean) took me from pretty much living and breathing BlackBerry to hating it with a passion. RIM sure knows how to make em eh?
The incredible seems to have all that I want in a phone. Only thing I will miss is the Tour's keyboard, it's pure gravy!

Storm 1 User
I have a storm one but have been longing for the android ever since. The storm's software just isn't keeping pace anymore.
I would love to win the Incredible!

I am on my 4th Tour and have been thinking why me. As a blackberry lover I am looking into the Android os to give me a different experience because Rim is slowing no love to us CDMA users.
The incredible is a perfecy combo of what I want and what I need to be productive.

I'm broke, i have an ORIGINAL Storm from Jan of 2008, I'm going to grad school and have no foreseen future income to get a new phone. Please help me! Being stuck with this piece of junk will guarantee 2 things: 1) Horrid web browsing; 2) Girls unimpressed with my phone/me.
Don't force me to use charm, wit, and alcohol to impress the ladies! Hook me up with the new Incredible!

I'm using HTC Magic mostly, and an HTC Diamond on occasion.
I can't wait for the 2.1 upgrade for Magic, so I hope I'll win Incredible

My current "sorry" phone is the Storm 1. While I "enjoy" doing a battery pull at least twice a day, I would rather not. Now that more medical programs are being ported to the Droid, the Incredible becomes a win-win solution for me.
I am currently using a Blackberry Tour 9630 (Verizon) which I've only had since December 2009.. The reason why I bought the Tour is because I initially bought the Blackberry Curve 8330 last May 2009. It was my first Blackberry ever and it was the biggest piece of junk ever. It was VERY slow and lagged alot.
With it being my first Blackberry I was not familiar with them and was fed up with it so I was talking to my cousin who was selling her Blackberry Tour 9630. I bought it from her and it was a WAY better phone that the Curve but still had it's issues.
Some of the issues were the CONSTANT Blackberry Outages that have plagued the Blackberry users which for me I was not use to coming from an LG enV before the Curve.
Another issue was recently when RIM (Blackberry) updated the Tour's OS to v5.0. I updated it because it was suppose to make things faster and I hear about the threaded text messaging which I would like. I upgraded to the v5.0 OS at the middle of March (whenever the update was released) and the only issue I had was the browser click. ANY time you would click something (still to this day it's a problem) it won't click right away
Well on April 10th I pulled my phone out of my pocket to send a text message and see "Technical Issue: Please return to place of purchase for repair" on my phone with a white background. Nothing else. I try to pull the battery and nothing happens.... I'm VERY upset by this point. I go to the Verizon store and show the Tech and he advises that since I bought the phone used from my cousin he can not do anything for me and advises me to contact Verizon Customer Service.... I tell him I don't have a phone so I can not call... He says see if I can borrow a phone from a friend.. I'm like what the heck?!
So after contacting Verizon Customer Service they try to work out a deal with me and say I can pay $199 for a Tour 9630 (same phone as what I have) but I would have to renew my contract. I tell her why would I want to renew my contract when this phone is a piece of junk? She says sorry sir but we can sell you a refurb one for $149 and I would not have to renew my contract but it would not be until Monday/Tuesday until I would get a replacement phone (keep in mind that it's Saturday at 6pm).... I was not happy!!
So I messed around with my Blackberry and my computer. I figured out a way to flash the phone back to v4.7 OS which fixed the problem. Verizon/Blackberry rolled out and update to the OS v5.0 update which "fixed" the problems that caused all the Tour 9630 (Verizon) to brick.... I updated to it and it caused my phone to mess up again... So I went back to v4.7 OS and am staying put with it...
Blackberry has been a PITA to me and I'm DONE with them.
I have been looking for a Android phone (particularly the Droid) for a while now but I don't have $300+ to spend on a used one right now.
So I'm hoping to win a Incredible to end this damn BLACKBERRY Ordeal!
Thanks

I have a Storm 1 that has the usual Storm issues of locking up, memory leak, etc. Not a day goes by that I don't want to throw the Storm up against a wall! Still under contract and can't afford to pay full retail for an upgrade. I would LOVE to have the new Droid Incredible so I can throw the Storm against a wall and leave it laying there! It would also be nice to finally be able to make my iphone loving friends jealous of my phone instead of laughing at it.
Storm1
I have a verizon storm 1, ugh... contract ended on 4/20 and cannot WAIT to get android. Done with the whole BB thing. If I don't win here I will be buying one anyways!
Thanks guys!
