I was curious as to why everyone in the store seemed like they were on a mission and I was told by the salesman that the District Manager was there visiting with the Associate Director of Store Operations. I took advantage of this opportunity and made conversation with both. I told them that I wasn't sure about upgrading my phone (T720) because I was waiting on the v710.

You'd be surprised.

For starters, it's not a completely trivial problem to not blow up the phone while in use. Lithium-Ion batteries have a *lot* of energy stored in them.
