    Great news!! Man I have been trying to be patient waiting for this thing.

    And I don't see a problem with a new thread. Some of the other are way too big. Good job, OP!

    we've heard these "training" reports before... ended up being nothing... only way to believe the 9650 is "coming" is when someone walks out of a vzw with one in hand and posts pics of it...

    Crap, I got excited for a little bit. When was the last time people said they were training on it?

    This is great news for Verizon customers. I have been stopping by various stores and they all deny the existence of the 9650.

    Glad to hear it. I wanna believe this is positive news.

    Verizon has never had training before on the Bold until just recently. The phone just got announced by RIM last week, no way would a carrier have training on a phone that wasnt even announced back in the day

    I am aware of the information in your quote but I was merely asking the person I quoted to see who exactly said they were training before.

    So you are saying you found out they are training as well as the original poster of this thread?

    I called Verizon too just now to see what the latest is if they knew. She knows of the Bold 9650 but also has no idea when it will be out yet. Also she tried to convince me to buy an android phone, the Incredible I told her once again no way, I hate touch screens and I hate the android platform. She kind of took offence to that somehow, and told me well, everyone is going to have an Android 10 years from now so you mine as well jump on it! I pretty much hung up on her after that

    I swear the last few times I talked to Verizon over the phone they pull that same crap on me.. drives me nuts

    Yeah I hear you. They recently tried to get me to upgrade to the Incredible or Pre, I just laughed. They were even going to throw in a free accessory package. I said no way, I had to ask the wife first. That always seems to work.

    yeah that drives me nuts since I know I'm not the only ones they do that too when people call. I mean I called to ask about the Bold 9650.. no where at anytime did I ever come close to mentioning an Android phone so why the hel* would they try to talk me into one when I called about a Blackberry!!! If I wanted an Android, I would have asked about one!! god, I can't stand how the last few times they tried to talk me into getting one even though I hate those phones and I told them that already!! Then to top it off this last lady blew me off saying, "oh" whatever, everyone is going to have an Andoid phone anyway in 10 years" ahh! so dumb I can't stand it! I need a drink

    LOL, no way is that going to happen!
    there are too many different opinions on what people like in their phones for any company to become the only one, let alone a specific OS and style of hardware.

    I was at a vzw store a couple hours ago. I went through the whole computerized sign in stuff. Which didn't make sense cause i was next anyway. Lol. I started looking at phones and the sales rep calls my name. I was across the room waiting. He didn't even move from behind the counter the whole time. He had no clue of a release date or the right name. He and his co-worker referred to it as tour 2. He had that perplexed look as he turned to him to ask " Do you know a date on that ?" His even more clueless co-worker says without looking up at me " June or July". Needless to say that didn't leave a good taste in my mouth. The waiting game begins.
