    They might just announce a date they are going to release it. I might go to my local store to see if they have a date this weekend

    I got something in the mail yesterday, like a small postcard, inviting me to visit my local VZ store so they can answer any questions they may have and show me ways to better use my smartphone. No dates, no mention of new devices/phones.

    My local VZW just said they get their shipments of new phones on Friday mornings ... and asked me to check back Friday afternoons.

    BUT, what we're talking is flimsy evidence here. Gonna happen WHEN it happens, and evidence won't speed it along.

    Rochester, NY VZW already has their shipment of S2's in. I was told that they will be out before my 30 exchange is up (was told this last night after they had their hand-on of the s2) so if that is true. It should hit the floor before November 3rd

    It says "Get the Storm for free" on the VZW site right now, in the rotating banner add.

    Been that way for at least a day or more...
