    Absolutely DONE with this Priv, I've been holding out as much as I can for the K1 to show up at Verizon and it seems like it's not going to happen unless I want to spend $500 for an unlocked CDMA version.

    Is anyone else holding out hope for this or have any reason to?

    And people have seemed to figure out how to get all the features to work too.

    It at least had plans to go to Verizon since the variant and oem file exist in all the firmware update files.

    BTW, I didn't tell the wife. It's easier to ask for forgiveness in this household than get permission :-)

    Just buy the unlocked CDMA version. Why get it from Verizon? They will still charge you 500+ for it. Go for it!!!

    I still owe a couple hundred on this Verizon Priv, I don't want to drop a couple hundred on turning it in and another $500 on the unlocked.

    Directly from BB Mobile although, there seems to be a lag between when the new updates are released for other UNlocked phones and when the cdma model gets it. We lagged about 2 months???? Someone might recall how long before the cdma model got the update.
