I asked isnt it out for Verizon, I meant the internet said it was, and Tmobile released theirs and Sprint is about to release theirs. As I was asking him he went right into denial mode and all his body language set itself up to deliver me the next line, an obvious lie.......
His head slightly tilted down, shoulders slightly slumped, eyes down and averting direct contact and half of a shallow breath and he said, never heard of it, they dont tell us when those things are coming out, we just walk in and they are here.
Wow did I ever laugh to myself, that is classic kenesics for a lie! But we continued to talk. He asked where I got my info and I said, oh the folks at ppcgeeks were talking about it and the next thing he said was, well, we can certainly get you ready for a BB storm 2. I said, those things are JUNK! He didnt like that too much, got really defenseive...... I said, for what they are they are ok, but they are junk. I pulled out my TP from Alltel (now stuck with Verizon) and he said, what is that (its in a hard case) and I said its what your junky pro should have been like, he just looked down again! (Too funny) I showed him the phone with the psyki rom and that it was running wm6.5 and he said, wow never seen anything cool like that and I said, well you probably wont since Verizon ruined the TP (sorry to those that use it, but I couldnt resist digging in to the guy).
He again asked if I wanted to look into that BB and said, nope, since you have no info Ill go look at the one Tmobile and sprint have out.... Again, he looked down, sighed and I walked away laughing.
Too bad they just wont say what they know, oh well it was fun messing with him.
