yup two of them my wife wants one too!

are either of you eligible for an upgrade or are you gonna pay full retail?

Have you ever ordered a new phone online and had it shipped? What was your experience like?

We're both NE2 eligible couldn't do it otherwise, especially with retail being like 550...well maybe me but not her! lol

I've only ordered online once Chris, and it was for the razr. It was easy only took two days..and all was fine. I don't want to wait till the 16, I'm sure iy will be fine again...I'm doing it!

Tip if you call telesales which is what I will do this time, they have an express ship for 20 bucks for one day delivery.

Sounds good...thanks for the info.

I'll prolly go with the standard ground--I thought it was free ground shipping if you order online. I don't know if I need the phone overnighted. Eventhough I will prolly be tracking the package online like a hawk, lol

LOL dude me too. I've never ordered a phone online but I seriously can't wait until the 5th. I just hope they don't push back the date.

yeah i haven't heard too much official from verizon, so I'm hoping the date of May 5th is a go. But I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

phonearena.com says expected May 5th as well 😁

Gettin' the Curve, eh Guns? Congrats. I remember tellin' ya months ago it'd show up in Q1 2008... but VZW being VZW, it slipped to May. Ah well.

Still is funny to see all the ATT trolls suddenly shift from, "You're NEVER going to see the Curve on Verizon!" ...
(continues)

im ordering online, I will def have an mini review as soon as I get the phone...Can't wait for May 5th!!

hahah well when you get excited about another carrier your really go off the deep end 😉 just playing bro it was funny to watch you run around here going crazy..i try other carriers i just never port my number. C'mon Curve!

I have never ordered online before but since i will be porting back i think i will just call telesales and have them port and ship for me.

He's talking about V for Vendetta. Cool movie.

I've got a wierd sense of humor.

Seriously... why squash us for being excited about something? Seems like you only have negative things to say about us. Now go away.

Great post buddy--like we haven't heard you say that same tired line for the past 6 months.

Oh, and if were all so lame for having verizon and wanting this phone...what does that make you for coming over and posting ridiculous posts everyday?

Food for thought....

Yeah, Joe is pretty much the dictionary def of the crazy uncle in the attic who won't shut up. Or he just gets a woody from serial trolling.

Either way, I think he's the early frontrunner for the VZW forum's Douche of 2008 Award┞¢. Way ta go Joe! The competition was fierce, but you worked hard and earned it! 😁

Careful there. I called Joe a "joke" in a forum message and it got reported to Rich Brome, then I got an email from Rich warning me.

Friggin' crybaby.

Aren't you the same douche that slams everyone else for trolling in the AT&T thread?

they took down ArmySF post lol he summed it up best! 🤣

hofo to compete with att for Mothers day weekend! 😢

Ok I don't mean to be whiney, but I was really looking forward to this phone on the 5th. I hope they give out an official release date soon, at least that way we'll know for sure.

Source?

And that seems weird, there is usually more time between online release and in store release. Not saying your dates are incorrect, just doesn't seem to fall in line with what vzdub usually does.

yeah no point in ordering online anymore, i will just hit the store on the 12th.

nevermind the source comment...I just saw the post bkw79 posted in the curve forum.

Cant wait for the 9th!!!

yeah read it on hofo from omnie and LP, it's confirmed.. 😁

cool...and I think you're dead on about ordering online. I'll just have to be at the verizon store at 9am to be the first person in my city to get my hands on one!

I really hope this phone lives up to the hype!

I called twice gunny (2 different verizon numbers) and got denied both times. I'll prolly stop trying and just wait and order on friday morning.

Congrats to those who are getting theirs early! And how hard is it for verizon to put some sort of stop on this....seriously.

I know I was tempted to but it just seems like to much hassle. Go ahead Chris try one more time, third time could be the charm 😉

lol...you're such a bad influence, maybe i'll wait till monday and do it.

Welcome to hofo by the way..hofo is great but it will never have that personal feeling of PS.

yeah ive posted a little bit on that curve thread...its def different, I feel like the info is better, but people are a little more uptight.

Phonescoop is much more relaxed which, as we've seen lately, can be both a blessing and a curse.

I agree hofo has the better info for the most part, but I really don't enjoy posting there..hell I don't really enjoy posting much anywhere anymore. Get my info and back to mountain biking, hiking, and paint ball 🙂

yeah I feel ya. I have been reading engadget and BGR more often these days. I play semi pro football in the summer, so between work and play, there's not much time for posting.

Stay safe on that mountain bike bro!

Thanks I'm actually new to mountain biking, and it can get pretty crazy. Let me guess linebacker?

I actually play offensive line...I'm 6'5'', about 320. Bench about 350 and squat 400. Makes for a pretty good oline frame 🙂

😲 Damn bro nice! i just started lifting again, but i don't bench 350 😁

Keep at it man, you're gains will be extremely fast when you first start out. Hit me up if you have any questions. I've started reading a lot about nutrition and supplements in the past year and have learned a lot. Also, my roommate is personal trainer who is insanely knowledgable.

Very cool I will do that. I started on a pretty basic schedule for starters..just three days a week. But I really enjoy weights a lot it's such a great feeling when done. I do lots of cardio, but understand the importance of weight training, and need to incorporate in my life for the long term.

Yeah thats great to hear! If you want to a good read...go to amazon and pick up the "body sculpting bible for men". Its an amazing book with a wealth of info and some great workouts/diet plans.

Make sure you get enough protein to. Take a shake immediately after workouts, if you're not already. It will help your body repair and you will be able to make gains ever faster.

Nice thank you. I will definitely buy that book....great I was already squirming to get out of this damn chair..now I can't wait to hit the club! 🙂

lol you know you guys can send each other PIN messages back and forth once you share your PINs with each other. Does not count against text messaging. Same for Blackberry Messenger - just like AOL instant messaging.

Enjoy the Berry.....I have an 8830 and love it.

yeah I know...and thats prolly not a bad idea...

And I have an 8830 as well, it is a great phone!
