I somehow got a 2nd early upgrade offer in the mail 2 days ago. I say somehow since I took advantage of the 1st offer last month. I'd like to go into the store with that flier (obviously covered with the new hemroid phones) the day the 9650 comes out and see if I can use it to get it. Just like the previous flier it gives me to the end of the next month. I should make it seem like they made me waste my early upgrade offer last month by sending me another offer this month. I think it was a blind marketing tactic to send out that early upgrade offer to customers and geared towards the new hemroid phones. Like I said before VZW is "f" ing ********

I still have yet to do finish doing that with mine regardless of model.05-20-10 11:17 PM - A bit hard for me to understand, I L*O*V*E*D my 8330 which never needed a battery pull, never froze and never had any other issues. I consider it an almost perfect phone.
I did go to a 9630 because of the SIM card ability, I am able to switch the phone between VZW and T-Mo prepaid with allows me to use the phone at my sister's house which is a dead zone to VZW.
I'll be switching back to the 8330 tomorrow or the next day to repair the damage done when ***** dog mistook the phone for a chew toy, the new screen, free of tooth marks, came today and the new housing should be here any day now... Switching to the 8330 will allow me to work very slowly and carefully... now where did I put that sledge hammer????
Once I have a shiny NEW WHITE 9630 VZW and T-Mo phone any desire I ever had for a 9650 will be gone.05-20-10 11:47 PM
