Re: Verizon is Excited, Waiting On Windows Phone 7
 

Yea, was kind of hearing that myself. It's specs are better than a TP2 tho.

The orignal specs for the phone claim it to have a FM radio (from Engadget specs), I'm wondering if it's still there or did Verizon cut it out....again. This will be the final straw with Verizon and I for sure.

This is one of the phones where it's a 1 year contract or no contract, just depending on cost and what else is planned (on release time) for other models on VZW...

It's not the most inpressive phone by any means but, still a nice phone.

@musicman247 Verizon is a valued partner and we look forward to seeing Windows Phone 7 devices in their stores in 2011. #windowsphone

So, in a nutshell, no one has a clue or just wont say anything...This year or next year... I wonder what one is BS...

thought I had read that a wp7 device might release before xmas for verizon.
Considering the minimum specs, I don't think there is a bad wp7 device, except for maybe the dell venue pro which can't seem to get anything right.

Re: Verizon is Excited, Waiting On Windows Phone 7
 

why dont you like the dell offering?

Re: Verizon is Excited, Waiting On Windows Phone 7
 

phone specs are amazing, 4" screen, portrait sliding keyboard.
Then it had wifi issues and devs and early adopters were asked to bring them back to switch with a new device.
With the new devices, only about 1 in 10 will read a sim card....
So, poor QC by dell I guess.

we have a forum here but i like the phone really, just curious as to your reasons.

Re: Verizon is Excited, Waiting On Windows Phone 7
 

Just got off the phone with Verizon making acct changes, and asked about the release date for WP7. CSR said they "should" be coming out right about the time my 2nd line is eligible, which is Dec 23rd. Plus Microsoft employees can already pre-order WP7 thru Verizon, so it's def a possibility that we'll see them pre-Christmas.

Re: Verizon is Excited, Waiting On Windows Phone 7
 

Still nothing on their website, wondering if they will just wait till after CES (Jan 6-9 2011) before release ???

It's going to hard for a company to push a big marketing promotion and give only 5-10 days for the sale (X-mas is 10 days away).

Just like everything else, you can never trust a CSR at Verizon, when it comes to rumored devices or things comming, you can talk to 5 different reps and get 5 different stories. About the only people who MIGHT know something (and only a week or 2 before release) is the techs because of training to support but, with them, it's the same story.

Sprint better hurry up, I have 2 accounts to upgrade and I am waiting for them to carry a nice WP7 device.
