- Today I went to two different Verizon stores and both didn't have the 9930, one didn't even knew when it was coming out. Overall I really like this phone, it just looked good. My wife even liked it and she gave up on blackberry a long time ago. She's ready to trade in the Droid x for it. Good job Rim, just keep improving.

One actually had no blackberry devices at all displayed or available in store (it was a VZW Corporate store as well). I tweeted my frustration and a VZW support person tweeted back to me the information, unfortunate that their own employees have no clue and we have to get our information from Twitter. I really hope this next round of devices is well received and pulls back some of the love from droid, you cant go a day as a VZW customer without getting a flyer to upgrade to droid or something.08-16-11 08:22 PMLike 0
- I went into my local store and the guy had one in back that he brought out and let me play with...couldn't do really too much with it as it hadn't been registered on the network yet so had no connection to 3G. The screen graphics are quite snappy and the fixed focus on the camera isn't really a limitation until you get REALLY close to whatever you're trying to photograph. Up close look at the screen indicates it is quite sharp. He knew nothing about NFC. I would like it except the screen is really not much bigger than the screen on my Tour. That alone is moving me towards the Android world.08-17-11 09:03 AMLike 0

Is it a phone or an Internet tablet?'" I simply walked away and left him standing there looking like a fool. It is shameful that Verizon could have such terrible reps in some of their stores. I'm ordering online.08-17-11 12:13 PMLike 0

I'm so happy to read a lot of threads with "convert" or "returning".
I think it's time I invest.lewisc1979 likes this.08-17-11 01:09 PMLike 1 - I went to my local vzw store to have my contacts transferred over and all three of the reps there were basically drooling over my phone. They all knew it was coming, and all of them had both BBs and Droids and said that this new device may be replacing the Droid as their main phone.
Funny how they were asking me all the questions about and asking to play with it and for me to show them certain things.
Good experience though!Guatiao likes this.08-17-11 01:32 PMLike 1 - I went to my local vzw store to have my contacts transferred over and all three of the reps there were basically drooling over my phone.

- Which playbook is the best to purchase? I am a BB newbie I have the Tour 9630 but it recently got water damaged and now I am waiting to purchase a BB Bold 9930 next week. However, I was also considering getting a playbook.08-18-11 11:19 AMLike 0
