the keyboard in wp7 is leaps and bounds better then ezinput or anything else available. only thing I miss from ezinput is the ability to press and hold on keys for symbols and numbers and the ability to easily input spanish.

Want to know why we have already highlighted May 12 in our calendars? It is rumored that Verizon is getting ready to launch not one, not two, but three new smartphones on that very day. According to some leaked information coming straight from a Verizon insider, May 12 is allegedly the release date for the Motorola DROID X 2, the LG Revolution, and the HTC Trophy.

With its qHD 4.3-inch display and its snappy 1.2 GHz Tegra 2 processor, we are not expecting to see the DROID X 2 landing anywhere else but on Verzion's top shelves with the rest of the carrier's hottest devices keeping it company. In case you've missed them, feel free to check out the DROID X 2's first press shots, which we wrote about not long ago. On the other hand, the LG Revolution may not pack that much processing power, but it will stand out with its 4G LTE connectivity. You can see our hands-on of the LG Revolution to get a clearer picture as of what the smartphone will look like. Finally, the HTC Trophy will become Verizon's first smart device to run the Windows Phone 7 platform. Yes, we may be living in a world dominated by Android and iOS, but Microsoft's mobile OS does have its fans out there.

Every single one of these three devices has been expected for quite a while and their supposed release dates have been only a matter of speculation so far. We are crossing our fingers that a concrete confirmation from Verizon makes headlines pretty soon, and once it does we will make sure to let you know.

Kinda sucks for microsoft that theyd release all 3 of those phones at the same time.

I figured it wouldn't be this week becuase the Microsoft discount is still available. I was told they can co-exsist. I'm not too worried anyway because I'll be heading to Mexico until next Tuesday for a vaca. Hopefully when I get back they would have just announced it. That would be a good way to end a vacation!

Edit: CAN'T co-exsist, not can. My bad.

I was thinking the same thing. I had to think tho. To take advantage of the MS program, you are agreeing to a 2 year contract before you get the phone. I read that and I was like, WTF ?

There is no way I would sign any contract with a cell provider with out getting a new phone at the time of the contract. I guess if I was a MS employee who jumpped on it back in Jan, I'd be pretty pissed off right now (worse than us just waiting for it).

What the hell, what's another week when you have been waiting forever ????????

PS: Guy/Gals, This thread is for Verizon wireless and them getting Windows Phone 7, Nothing else. Please take all 4G discussions to "Carrier Discussions" unless it's about Windows Phone 7 and Verizon's LTE 4G network.

I've been busy with work for the last few weeks and noticed this thread going WAY off topic. No more Sprint talk here PLEASE !!!

Edit: did someone already get a Verizon HTC Trophy ?

My email will not auto load images for instance so I've got all these little boxes that say "download image." I want my email app to be white on black instead of black on white. It burns my eyes out in a dark room. More to follow.

yea good luck on the trophy purchase next Thursday. hopefully they won't be sold out when u get urs tho that wouldn't be a bad thing because that would indicate that its selling or that they have limited stock of it.

We'll see, I might not get it day one but, over next weekend. I have a claim still open on my cracked TP2, so I'll try that first to see if they will give me one of those first.

I just wish Verizon still offered 1 year contracts still, I really didn't want to sign a 2 year for a phone with out a keyboard. I was even thinking about attempting to use a Arrive on Verizon just to get a keyboard but, with no SLCD like the Trophy has, not sure I want to.
